The first snows of winter

Chadkirk Chapel in the snow. (This video has no sound.)

Chadkirk is always a special place, but no more so than when the snows start to fall – as they did on Sunday, when the chapel was open. 

The chapel opens on the last Sunday of the month and is staffed entirely by volunteers, who serve hot and cold drinks, along with a selection of cakes.

This is becoming increasingly popular – as evidenced by the cakes looking dangerously close to running out as the day drew to a close. The chapel was busy most of the day and we’ve had some fantastic feedback via our Facebook group.

“We called in here today on our walk around Chadkirk. Have to say, lovely welcoming people, the volunteers, and the tea and cake were lovely. Much needed on a fresh day like today.”

“Such a beautiful place. Went in yesterday for tea and cake, it’s stunning inside and so nice to see it open again.”

“Had a lovely time there today, enjoyed the cake & coffee too.”

“My daughter, granddaughter and myself spent a wonderful, peaceful half an hour in this very special place yesterday.”

“It was lovely there yesterday.”

“There was something magical there yesterday. I loved it.”

“It really did have a magical feel yesterday. So lucky to live so close. A big thank you to all the volunteers who keep this place open, you’re amazing.”

Thanks to everyone for coming along and supporting the chapel – we hope to see you again in the coming months.
