Come and visit the charming church of St Mary’s in Shinfield where churchwarden, Chris Young, will tell us about its history. He will also talk about some of the notable people linked to it.
Originating in 1069, there is a long and fascinating history. It was founded by Guillaume de Breteuille, one of William the Conqueror’s great Marshalls. The church has changed and adapted with the times but retains many Norman features along with a new stained glass window that was installed to commemorate the Millennium.
Numbers are limited, so pre-booking is required.
