The Benefice 

The paper magazine is published through the efforts of many people.

The editor is one of a very large group of volunteers committed to the regular and efficient distribution of nearly 750 copies per month.

Once the editing is done, it then has to be printed, collated, stapled together as individual magazines, passed on to the various distributors; who then take the magazine to the door of most of the contributors, in any weather.

Without the effort of this team, the magazine would not be possible.

November Magazine Front Cover

The weather was exceptionally good the day I visited this historic Church, so the strong sunlight has picked out perfectly both the detail of the carving around the doorway, and the gorgeous red of the stonework. It is well worth visiting this Church. It is not too far out, just a few miles south of Hereford on the Abergavenny road, and you could easily spend a complete afternoon viewing all that this building has to offer. Just for tasters, it has an original semi-circular apse, one of a very few still in existence. You will also find a huge solid stone font, Norman carved corbels almost 90 in number and all different, and a graveyard that used to be an old Saxon village. The interior of the church is also full of carved stonework. Guide booklets are available to purchase inside, the money helping towards repairs that are constantly needed.

Much like every other church in the land, I guess. (Editor)
