The church roof is now secure as you will see from the photograph below. Thanks to a generous grant from The National Churches Trust we were able to make the repairs and ensure water does not enter the church and affect the paint on the walls in the chancel and above the servery.

An exciting new venture at St Mary Magdalene's?

We are clearing a section of the churchyard for a home for bees. Without bees all our flowers and fruit would not exist and they are in decline. So we at St Mary Magdalene think it is important to give them a little help. The project is supported by the Co-op and we will be gratefut to all members who vote for our bees. click here Co-opUK local community fund.
