Friends of St Margaret's Church Ruins, West Raynham

Sunshine, warm weather, a warm welcome, fantastic food and great company. The perfect setting for today’s first fundraising event, hosted in partnership with SmithsOnion and the Raynham Estate.

This isn’t simply about preserving a historic site. It’s about honouring the past while creating a living, thriving place for people, nature and community, and pioneering a new model for caring for ruined churches across the UK.

Thank you to all our supporters and guests today for your generous support. Raynham Hall.

The ruins of St Margaret’s West Raynham have stood through weather, silence, and generations — and next week they’ll ring again with prayer and song.

Join us for our Outdoor Patronal Festival on Monday 20th July at 6pm. It’s a gentle, open‑air service for the whole community.

Whether you come often, occasionally, or haven’t been for years, you are welcome. Come and stand where countless others have stood, and add your voice to theirs.
