St Patrick’s Church, Salter Street
“A striking & unexpected accent in a wholly rural landscape” (Quote from English Heritage)
Earlier this year, St Patrick’s Church, Salter Street achieved Grade II*listed status. The beautiful Victorian church, designed by Bidlake, had finally been recognised as the very special place it is; there are intricate carvings, ornate decorations, stunning murals and a wonderful ceiling.
To celebrate this, recently, there have been three open days allowing many people to come in and see the treasures for themselves. This will be repeated on:
Bank Holiday Monday 29th August
Visitors will be welcome between 10am-4pm. There will be
· accompanied tours· a chance to sit quietly
· the Millennium Tapestry to see
· books for sale
· refreshments to enjoy

There are some interesting wildflowers growing in the meadow part of the churchyard too.
