St Peter's Church, Thorington

About

The pretty Norman church of St Peter dates to the 11th century, with a striking round tower of flint, and an aisle-less nave and chancel. The church is an important Grade 1 listed building, that is now in reasonably good condition. Given its architectural importance there is a constant need for maintenance and ‘keeping on top of things’. The churchyard is kept tidy by volunteers, and there is an abundance of wildflowers especially in spring. All are welcome here. The PCC is small. There is a Churchwarden, a Secretary and one other member at meetings and a suggestion being explored is to establish Friends of Thorington Church, enhancing the Church as a community asset. All are welcome to our services as advertised in the Blyth Valley Times and on this website.
