Discover the history of your village with a guided tour of St Mary’s Church, Bloxham and its churchyard!
“Very interesting, well-presented and I would have no hesitation in recommending the tour. The whole tour was very enjoyable.”
The Heritage Group of the “Building our Future” project at St Mary’s Church has established a team of guides to provide tours of the church and churchyard. These bring to life the history, art, architecture, stories and characters associated with what is “one of the grandest churches in the country” according to Pevsner’s Buildings of England, and an important focus of Bloxham village life for over a thousand years.
The tours last about 14 hours and there is a charge of £10 per head, which includes tea/coffee and cake, or wine/soft drinks and nibbles for evening tours, with all prceeds going to the “Building our Future” appeal. There are two upcoming tours open to the public: Sat 20 July, 6.45pm Sun 28 July, 2.30pm
Please contact Andrew Whiffin (andrew.whiffin@btinternet.com; 07788 105984) to book a place on one of these dates. Numbers limited; first come, first served!
