"About" gives information about St John's. this is where you can find a map to locate the church and the parish boundary.  Extra items will appear on the left side menu.  Thinking of visiting us to attend a Service (we would love to meet you) then click on Services, we like to think the tags are self explanatory.

What no bell!

We have had reports of damage to the stone work mounting near one of the bells, as a precaution we will not be ringing the bells until professionally inspected and any repairs completed. As a further precaution, please do not use the path that runs beneath the bells along the West wall of the church.
