This week it has been lovely to see the chapel being used to its full potential. For some it is a place of fond memories of childhood, having once attended the Sunday school there when it was the old Baptist Church.

Situated in the heart of Clay Cross, the Chapel can seat around 70 people providing the perfect environment for a Celebration of Life Service.

If you would like to find out any further information regarding The Chapel or any of our other services, please call us on 01246 851194.

Special thanks to J.R Hoult & Grandson, Rev Richard Clarke for a lovely service in Jean's memory and to Frank Holmes the organist at St Bartholomew's Church. The staff at the Blue Bell North Wingfield for the professional service they all offered we couldn't have asked for anymore.
