Begonia in window

 There are always flowers on the windowsill beside Chapel Lane.  It's our way of saying "Welcome". 
Our prayer and aim is always that folk who meet us will also meet Jesus in a meangful way.

The Building 

Front of church  old graveyard    Rear of Church and current Graveyard

 Open skies

The Church, which was built in 1811, sits at right angles to a delighful country lane. The front faces the Old Graveyard rather than the road. The extension on the left includes the School Room and kitchen.  From the back the chapel looks more like a house than a church. The tiny upper windows were where the caretaker once lived, with one small living room down-stairs. This rear Graveyard is still in use, along with a large carpark. At the left of the righthad picture is the (now-unused) late C19 outside toilet. Lovely open skies over the hedge.

The Church Lounge and Office

 The Old Stables, near right, has been refurbished as the pastor's office and church lounge.

Holman Hunt's painting "Jesus, the Light of the World" is visible from the doorway. A place to work and also to rest.
