We are planning a guided tour of Tong Church followed by lunch. The tour of the Church lasts about an
hour and costs £10 per person. There is a lot to see and hear at this Grade 1 Listed building that John
Betjeman called 'The Westminster Abbey of the Midlands'; it has a Golden Chapel built in 1510 with its
rich colouring earning the name; the Stanley Monument in the Church features an inscription believed to
have been written by William Shakespeare; Charles Dickens visited the church in 1840 and chose it as
the final resting place and setting for Little Nell in the closing chapters of The Old Curiosity Shop; the
Great Bell of Tong weighs 2.5 tons and is the ninth-largest swinging church bell in England.
If you would like to come along on this visit, there is a list at the back of Wombridge Church or you can
let Chris Griffiths know on 07930245773. Lifts are available and timings will be confirmed closer to the
trip but are expected to be arriving at Tong for 11am and lunch at 12.30pm
