The chestnut tree, on the north side of the Churchyard lost a large<br />

bough in the autumn storms which indicated that the tree was<br />

deceased. Advice was sought, which suggested, that its time had<br />

come, thus it was that a couple of weeks ago armed with<br />

chainsaws it was taken down. It has opened up the Churchyard<br />

wonderfully and now the debate is whether we replace it and if so<br />

what with.<br />

Easter will soon be on us. In the meantime of course we are in lent<br />

during which we do not have flowers in Church. During this time,<br />

lead by Lynda Mansfield, we have a Lent course run as a house<br />

group around the village. Probably the most important Christian<br />

event of the year Easter is quite early this year being the last<br />

weekend of March. We will hold an Easter Service at All Saints at<br />

9.30am on Sunday 1 st <strong>April</strong>, as always a very warm welcome<br />

awaits.<br />
