Gorse on Batcombe Down
Batcombe Church
We enjoyed an uplifting Easter Day Service in Batcombe church with a good mix of young and old, together with some welcome visitors from outside the village. There was lovely spring weather and we sang a hymn outside the church at the end of the service. The church was beautifully decorated with flowers.

Mothering Sunday
On Mothering Sunday, a kind group from the church made 30 posies and delivered them to all the Batcombe households with women in them. A lovely and much appreciated gesture.

On Saturday 10 April our church warden, Susie Graham, tolled the church bell 99 times in honour of, and as a tribute to, the life of the Duke of Edinburgh.
