“We are opening up to invite people to come inside the church, particularly people who haven’t visited us in the past.

“There is information available about the stunning stain glass windows that we have in the church, as well as about all the other artefacts, many of which were given by wealthy businessmen from the Victorian era.

“We would love to meet people on Saturday, September 16.”

Light refreshments will be available throughout the day.
