The sun seems to have vanished for a while, but the Bank Holiday weekend was perfect - how was yours?

St John's was bustling with people for Creators in Residence and now is empty and silent once more. It's always good to chat with people about the church though and so many had no idea that they could visit St John's daily, even old & new residents of the village. Never be scared! Just stroll on up and try the door. If the door is locked, call the number. There's always a way you can visit and we will make sure it happens for you.
