Dear Visitors,
Our aim in creating this website has been threefold:- firstly, to publicize information about our beautiful little church:- times of worship, social events, it's history and architecture; secondly, to share with you our enjoyment of the area in which it is set; and thirdly, to provide you with some thoughtful reading for the quieter moments in your life. Although stemming from the rhythm of the church's year, these articles could well speak meaningfully to you at any time.
Above all, we hope you don't just rush through our lovingly-created pages, but enjoy spending some time with us.
Jean and Pauline

January 20th (3rd Sunday after Epiphany)
So far this year (January 2016) we have had very little of "the white stuff" so here is a look back at a few days in the winters of 2008 and 2009. The views are taken in and around Clippesby Hall, before the construction of the reservoir. Accompanied by some delicate and peaceful harp music by Handel.
