2025 News

The  quinquennial report  is a very lengthy and detailed report that examines the state of our church and makes recommendations about the repairs and maintenance needed  was published late last year. The repairs recommended have to be completed over the next 5 years and it is estimated that the total cost will be in the region of £94,000.  This is a very large amount of money but as a Grade 1 listed Crown Property we are caretakers of an historic building and with that comes the costs.

People are hard at work running  our regular events ,the  pastoral lunch, coffee mornings and social events. The coffee mornings returned to the village hall in October which is a warmer venue during the winter months.

Wi Fi has now been installed in church which  means we are now  able to take  card payments. Card donations can be made online using this website.

The open garden weekend was a success thanks to good weather that weekend and raised over £10,000.  After 3 years of hard work organising this event we are taking a break and at present have not planned a 2026 event.

We will be organising other events so please keep up to date by accessing our newsletter (request copy by emailing [email protected].) or by referring to All Service Dates and Events tab

In September we welcomed our new vicar. The Reverend Gillian Lunn is now the Rector of the East Dere Street Benefice and is already trying to get out and meet parishioners.  You can contact her about anything on [email protected] or 07592016746.
