June 4th each year marks the anniversary of the tragic death of 12 young USAF men as they crashed their plane close to Garvestone, whilst on their way to fight in World War Two. They died shortly before D-Day and the people of Garvestone have worked together to erect a memorial n their honour. The memorial is in the field behind the Village Hall. Each year we gather there to hold a short memorial service and to remember them, and the sacrifice they made to win our freedom today. All are welcome.

St Peter & St Paul's Church Barnham Broom

St Peter and St Paul's Church is part of the Barnham Broom and Upper Yare Team of 15 Parishes (Groupof15), a group of churches who are  dedicated to proclaiming the Gospel of Jesus Christ and serving our community. We usually hold our church services on the second Sunday of the month, but check our calendar for details. Our beautiful Church lies on the Honingham road at the edge of the village. Parking is available on the lane next to the church. In winter bring a torch as there are no street lights. The church has no toilet unfortunately. Refreshments are usually served after services but check the calendar for details

If you would like to financially help us in our work of service to the community and the upkeep of our medieval church, you can donate through our website www.groupof15.org.uk or give the Donate link on this page. Thank you.
