Here at St John the Baptist, Stone,We have always welcomed dog walkers to enjoy our beautiful churchyard.However, Recently there have been several incidents where our grounds have been damaged by dogs that have been left to freely roam and a lot of dog mess has been left behind which our gardening volunteers have had to deal with.In light of this, we have had to make the decision to designate our churchyard as a dog on leads only area. We did not want to make this decision as we would love to keep the churchyard as a safe place for dogs to play, but the actions of a few have caused this to be necessary. We hope to be able to reverse this decision if things improve.
