Today there was enough of break in the weather to sort out our grass after “no mow may”.

Each May we observe “No Mow May” in our churchyard and around the hall.

Thank you to all those who support “No Moan May”

December 2023 Father David took a funeral with Mr Ashton (senior) who opted to walk the hearse from Lee Brigg to Altofts Church (it was a long walk in the cold). May 2026 it was bittersweet to retrace those steps today with Mr Ashton (junior) as we returned to the same address for the partner’s funeral (it was a long walk in the rain).
We pray for the souls of Melvyn reunited with his soulmate Doreen and for Eddie Ashton.
Thanks to all at CE Ashton and Son for their kindness and care.
