NOVELIST Joanna Trollope will be on hand to present the trophies at the annual Corsley Show on Bank Holiday Monday.

Thousands of people are expected at the event on August 25, when the show will mark its 85th anniversary.

Among the show's main attractions will be the horticulture tent where horticulture chairman Michael Taylor is hoping for a bumper crop of entries.

Mr Taylor said: "With the aim of stimulating interest and in response to requests, we have made a few changes."

The horticulture show has nearly 200 classes to enter from flowers to photographs and handicraft.

Schedules and entry forms are available at Warminster and Westbury libraries, Tourist Information Centres and selected shops.
