Church Grounds and Garden

A driveway alongside the church leads to our car park with space for 47 cars and the Vicarage . To the east of the Church is a well maintained quiet garden, the flower borders contain a variety of shrubs and plants giving a range of colour throughout the year. The northeast corner of the garden has been consecrated for the interment of ashes.  Access is by five steps with a handrail or by a grassed ramp for wheelchairs.  A gate through the hedge leads to The Orchard, our beautiful garden with fruit trees which is a place for reflection and recreation.

You are welcome to visit our gardens at any time - come to pray or to eat your sandwiches
