Facilities and features
Accessibility
The Church has one toilet which is used by all church members. It is suitable for Disabled and the entry is ramped.
There is a car parking area outside the church and in adjacent roads. Please do not park on the grass in winter, and please leave the area closest to the Church Gate for those who struggle to walk or who need to use a wheelchair.
There is a toilet in the Church Room which is used by all church members. It is suitable for Disabled and the entry is ramped.
The entry to the Church and Church Room is ramped and if you wish to use the ramp you need to take the LEFT HAND SIDE pathway around the Church building as you approach. There are steps on the Right Hand approach route into the Church.
There is a hearing loop but you need to speak to a Welcomer if you think that the Loop is not working, since we have no regular users of the Loop and therefore it may have had its volume turned too far down without anyone noticing!
Our Building
The Church Building is listed and is an unusual design. There is a history booklet available at the back of the Church or from churchwardens / Vicar.
Music and Worship
We have music at every 10.30 service, but not for the 9.00 Communion. Most of our music is played through our sound-system from a computer featuring recorded music. Once a month, we have a live band.
We have an organ & electronic piano but no regular organist or pianist.
Once a month, the JAM Band plays live for our worship.
