What's On
Church and Cornerstone Café Opening Times
The church is open to visitors every day from 9.00am until 4.00pm, for private prayer, 
contemplation and meeting with God. (Except Sundays, when services are held, or when a funeral or wedding is taking place.)
A manned bookstall is available five days a week between 10.30am and 3.30pm.
The Cornerstone Café, in the church, is open from Tuesday 28th May through to Thursday 26th September on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays from 10:30am to 3.30pm.
The café serves hot and cold drinks plus homemade cakes and scones.
The church tower is not open for visitors to climb, due to the peregrine falcons nesting at the top.
Planned exceptions to normal opening times will be listed here, whenever possible.
