Churchyard Path Closure

by stefan | Aug. 3, 2026, 9:36 a.m.

There is drainage repair work scheduled all of this week, 3rd - 7th August.

During this time, the eastern path between the church car park and the main road will be closed. Similarly, the path running from the Lychgate to the east end of the church is also closed. The church is accessible via the West end from Pepper Street only please.

The vast majority of the churchyard remains accessible. However, small sections on the front (southern) eastern side will not be until the work is completed. We apologise for this inconvenience. Any problems please contact the parish office. 

Thank you for your understanding. The major drainage repairs have been ongoing since February of this year.

Kind regards,

Stefan, Rector
