The Benefice Website

The benefice website is growing as fast as I can make it but it is and will be; a work in progress and because the benefice is also a community, you and everyone else are invited to contribute.

The Church Stories of each church are a collaborative project. I have nearly completed the Bincombe one for now but please read the note at the start of each story about this being a collection of comments and stories that are collaboratively assumed to be reasonably accurate but if you have more information then please send it in on [email protected] This is the email link at the bottom of every page.

Latest developments:

The St Laurence Gallery is increased with more internal 360 panoramas which you can navigate with mouse or finger on iPads etc. and se the church in detail.

The Church Story is growing so have a look and read so far. There is a lot of information on the history of the church and I am trying not to duplicate but more direct and offer the various accounts to allow you to make what you will. I am not making any definitive statements and if you want to say something different then write in and we will see how we can add to the story for everyone's benefit.

You will also see a list of Vicars and Rectors of the church since 1201 where you can see who was in charge during some of the significant periods of our colourful history.

Note the section about the Old Font. There are varying versions as to how the font was moved, why it was replaced and how it ended up under a column. Reading about that set me along a fascinating path about Henry V, Henry VI and Margaret of Anjou. Granted that the tie to St Laurence is a bit tenuous, one understands more about the Roses and texts on the wall and the context of the politics in the late 1400s.

Thank you for the positive and constructive feedback about the site so far; much more to come.
