The Open Day...
...on 5 May proved a great success. 130 villagers listened to Carol Bennett and Arthur Hawes, Archdeacon of Lincoln, before progressing to three "unveilings" followed by refreshments.
Special thanks to all who helped led by Cliff Baxendale.

In the meantime, the church tower has been cleaned out of all the old bird's nests etc (17 bags full!) and new bird guards have been fixed - more work that one cannot see!
