Like poking around in corners?

Can't resist a mystery? Good at photography or making lists? Then the BRIDFAS church recording team would love to hear from you. BRIDFAS is working with us to compile a church record of the Anglican Church of St Thomas Becket, known to many as the Englische Kirche. The project is still in its early stages, but there will soon be plenty of practical help needed, such as compiling records of silver, wall plaques and memorials, and textiles. You don't need to be a BRIDFAS member or part of the church to get involved; everyone's welcome. To find out more, click on the BRIDFAS logo on the right of this page or visit the BRIDFAS website.
