Bees at Manor Lodge are in for another dose of pampering. Last Year they exceeded all our expectations in producing almost 150lbs of delicious honey despite the awful weather. The secret ingredient we all suspect of course is all the easy to locate flower meadows.
This spring they are about to find their hives transported into a luxury new Bee House. It’s a bit like Parkhill Flats but without the English Heritage restrictions. 7 Hives get housed in a restored barn and each has their own front door. Whilst around the back visitors schools and trainee bee keepers can observe and manage them – all in the dry.
To help them find their way back safely, each hive has a specially designed and colour coded motif to home in on. Perhaps we should suggest this idea to Urban Splash?
