Queen Elizabeth II

1926 – 2022

May she rest in peace and rise in glory

New Church Door Locks

You may have noticed that the south and west doors of the church have been beautifully restored by Jacowe’s Joinery. The locks on the west door have also been replaced with much stronger ones. Please do not attempt to use an old key on the new locks, as this could damage them. If you think you need a key to the west door, please apply to me. We are trying to limit the number of keys distributed and to keep a record of who has one. David
