Message from Shirley, the churchwarden

“Hello everyone,

I am hopeful that the weather will be dry this Saturday, 25th July,  so there will be  a working party from 10 until 12 noon.

There are saplings to be cut back, graves to be tidied in the old church yard, fallen branches to collect up, to name a few of the jobs. 

If you would like to join in that would be brilliant, even if its just for part of the time.  Thank you.  Please bring your own tools and a drink.  Sorry, Covid 19 prevents me from providing drinks.  We still  need to keep to all the social distancing rules.

If you know anyone else that would like to join us please let them know and bring them along.

Cancelled of course if its wet”.

Monday to Saturday – 7.30am to 6pm

Sunday 8am to 1pm

Do you have a couple of hours to spare this Saturday (11th July) between 10.00 am and noon?

Shirley is organising a working party to tidy up the church yard and is looking for volunteers to help out.

Saplings need cutting back, graves need tidying in the old part of the church yard, fallen branches need removing and paths need to be swept; just a few of the jobs that require attention.

Social distancing and staying safe is a priority, so please bring your own tools and refreshments.

The 5th virtual quiz night is online tonight at 8pm.

50 general knowledge questions against the clock and each other.

A quick update on the opening of the Bricklayers Arms from landlords Ben and Jan.

“Due to the recent outbreak & lockdown of the surrounding areas, we have decided to defer the re opening until further notice.
Our top priority is for the safety of ourselves, staff & our customers so we feel the steps we are taking are the correct ones, we hope you’ll understand.

Obviously there will be new safety measures in place, i.e. social distancing, health & hygiene with sanitising measures.

Being such a small pub a ONE WAY system will be in place with restricted table facilities.

Upon re-opening, food will be on a BOOKING ONLY system with a limited menu in place.

On a brighter note, the Bricklayers Arms has been redecorated from top to bottom and we can’t wait for your next visit.

As this is all new to both of us and yourselves. We anticipate a few teething problems, but I’m sure we will improve as we go along, with your help and suggestions.

THANK YOU for your patience we look forward to seeing you all very soon”
Ben, Jan, Emma & Staff’
