The Church Ale
A specially brewed ale sold to raise money for the Church in 2011
John Collins
On the 17th September 2011 St Mary’s Church held a Church Ale Festival in the churchyard. The beer was brewed by a, fairly, local brewery, and a very nice brew it was too.
This highly successful and enjoyable event was organised by Marika Footring, a member of the Church Committee.
