St Mary Magdalene is a Grade One listed church dating back to the 12th century. It is a nationally significant building which is currently on Historic England’s Heritage at Risk Register. Grants of £3,064,126 from National Lottery players through The National Lottery Heritage Fund, support from Historic England, the Church of England, and the UK Shared Prosperity Fund will enable vital repairs to be made to the Church, removing it from the Heritage at Risk Register, breathing new life into the visitor experience, and saving the building for future generations.

Join us for a tour of the building, and see St Mary's up close, as you have never seen it before. Enjoy a fascinating tour, and follow along with the progress on this amazing project.
