United Benefice of Aspenden, Buntingford and Westmill

We are three welcoming and inclusive churches set in the lovely countryside of East Hertfordshire, two in the small villages of Aspenden and Westmill, and one in the small but growing market town of Buntingford.

Each of our churches has its own tradition, worship pattern and events throughout the month. Alongside this, we have Benefice Together services especially at Christmas and Easter. 

Each of our churches has its own ACNY page.

Buntingford Lice Presents: Highway Cello
In 2022 Kenneth cycled with his cello strapped on the back of his bike from Hadrian’s Wall to Rome, performing every day en route.
His book ‘Highway Cello’ tells the story of his journey through readings and music. Expect a wide variety of solo cello music, ranging from Bach to Bond, tangos and Irish airs, all interspersed by Kenneth’s acidic poetic commentary.

This should prove to be a most fascinating and entertaining evening!
