Stondon Massey: Church Fund Raising Event

TABLE TOP SALE AT THE HISTORIC NORMAN CHURCH OF ST. PETER AND ST. PAUL, STONDON MASSEY

To help recover the costs of a new roof at St Peter and St. Paul church Ongar Road, Stondon Massey, the congregation are holding a table top sale, at the church, on Saturday afternoon 7th August from 2 – 4pm.

On sale will be books, bric-a-brac, jewellery, cakes and home produce and plants. There will also be face painting and glitter tattoos as well as refreshments including cream teas.

It will also provide an opportunity to view this beautiful Norman church where William Byrd, the famous Elizabethan composer, is buried. He died in 1623 and there is a memorial commemorating the tercentenary of his death inside the church. His music was featured recently in the BBC Sacred Music series.
