To celebrate this there will be a service of Holy Communion (using the Book of Common Prayer) in the Church of St Mary the Virgin, Orchardleigh BA11 2PH at 7.30pm.
“Do come and join us, the church can be found by following the signs to Orchardleigh House and Golf Club from the Frome to Radstock Road and turning right on the golf course – it is signed!
“The Church of St Mary dates back to the 14th century and sits on a moated island adjacent to the lake on the Orchardleigh estate and due to its location, has no electricity and all services are illuminated by candlelight and the organ is pumped by hand!”
