Back in Time
 

We are pleased to introduce a Back in Time feature. From a large black box we have found a variety of old documents ranging from 1972 all the way back to 1559 - yes that’s 1559 ! Those very old ones are from a small red book, a copy of ‘The Marriage Register 1559 - 1812.’ Other documents include ‘St Mary’s Quarterly Papers’, ‘Parish Magazines’, an ‘Inventory and Terrier 1936’, a ‘Church Ledger 1911’, ’Ye Ould Storie of Hitcham The little Grey Church on the Windy Hill 1926’ plus some end of year accounts.
 

We hope you enjoy them

Chris and Angela
