Church Graveyard Update
We are currently undergoing a process of change at St. Martin's, as our gardener had to retire suddenly. He did a wonderful job, and kept the graveyard and grounds looking immaculate for many years. We were very fortunate to have him, as many graveyards are not maintained to such a high standard.
Our new gardener has started, and is doing a great job at catching up with the mowing and strimming, section by section. This, however, will take a while, as the graveyard is vast.
Please be patient with us.
Some people have chosen to strim/mow their relatives graves in the meantime, which you are very welcome to do. We are also very grateful to receive donations towards the upkeep of the grounds.
The area near the front of the church has been intentionally left unmowed over the summer to create a hay meadow, and to encourage insects and wildlife, but will be cut in the coming weeks.
Once again, we ask for your patience and understanding in this matter.

Coronation Celebration!
We thoroughly enjoyed watching the Coronation of King Charles lll together in church recently. Watching on the big screen, we followed along with our service sheets and shared a lovely buffet lunch.
Jubilee Joy!
We had a lovely time watching the Jubilee celebrations together. We gathered in the church and watched the service on the big screen and enjoyed some delicious scones with jam and cream!
