An invitation to explore the remarkable heritage of St Mary's Church, Silverton

St Mary's has received funding from the National Lottery Heritage Fund to begin the investigation work which we hope will ultimately lead to the repair and conservation our remarkable historic ceilings. The second phase of the project will be the actual work of repair which will be the subject of a further application to the National Lottery Heritage Fund. This will include ways in which our local community can take part.

You are invited to an event which will be held in St Mary’s Church, Silverton, on Saturday 26th September at 7.30 pm. There will be a talk about the history of the church. Particular emphasis will be given to the remarkable aisle ceilings which we are wanting to repair and conserve, and why they are unique and of national significance. This will be an opportunity to ask questions and to express your views about how you would like the community to be involved in this project.

There will also be a raffle, wine and nibbles. All are very warmly invited!
