The NT are running a series of events in the Church at Benthall Hall. This was an afternoon concert which filled the church, even though it was billed with a foot note 'No heating, wrap up as though you outside' Believe me you needed to.
The Quire was in fine voice and instrumentalists in great performance mode. A concert of West Gallery Carols, most enjoyed.
Getting ready.
The Village Band from the West Gallery.
On a cold December Saturday the Quire performed at Cardeston a small Hamlet in Shropshire. This church still retains the West Gallery although we were not able to make use of it. There is also a Barrell Organ.
The Quire were greeted with warm soup and rolls on arrival, dessert and fine cakes. During the interval Mulled Wine and more fine cakes were served. Thank you for the wonderful hospitality.
The paths to the church were lined with real candles in jars to light our way, creating a lovely atmosphere.

Time for a natter. Note the West Gallery.A joyful Christmas Performance at this fine old Church. The evening was well organised and there was a full church. One of the quires newest members took on the challenge of demonstrating the Serpent which he did brilliantly.
A fine spread of Food was provided after the performance for Quire members and the audience.
