THE LANGHO PHARMACY
The Langho Pharmacy ladies have been on board with the 'Langho In Bloom' project since day one and have already undertaken developments around their shop area. A recent project which enlisted the help of a local Dry Stone Wall trader Ray Marsh has given the ladies a lovely area for growing herbs which will hopefully provide a beautiful aroma for all who pass by and goes hand in hand with some of the natural ingredients found in many medices today. Pictures of this are will be posted shortly. Some of the below images show the earlier develpments to the site. Keep up the good work girls!!
