Friends of Forncett St Mary, Heritage Angels Friends of Forncett St Mary, Heritage Angels The Friends of Forncett St Mary Church successfully brought the redundant Grade I church and churchyard back into use both as a consecrated building and community resource. Initially volunteer work was essential, coupled with local fundraising. A steering committee was formed to oversee the project. Later on, as the project gained momentum, Nicholas Warns Architect was employed to oversee and run the architectural and structural project. Their main challenge was to prove the project was viable before they were able to apply for the larger grants. They did this by holding events, even when the church was still in quite a poor state of repair. This meant that they were then able to have the building taken out of redundancy and become a fully consecrated, functioning church. It was funded by a mixture of fundraising events, donations and grant aid from Historic England, Norfolk County Council, the Garfield Weston Foundation, Geoffrey Watling Foundation, South Norfolk District Council and Norfolk County Council. The project is 95% complete with only relatively minor works outstanding. The fact that a Grade I listed building has been saved for the community is a source of pride in the local area. The events held in the church are always well supported from both inside and outside the local area. Importantly, they still retain over 100 Friends and the level of support, both for events and Church services, remains high. The Friends group continues to be the driving force and they actively look for their successors. They have had some requests from other churches and community organisations to share with them their story, particularly the setting up of friends groups as these are a very important factor for the future.

  • Parish Registers and Transcripts in the Norfolk Record Office
    Parish Registers and Transcripts in the Norfolk Record Office This list summarises the Norfolk Record Office’s (NRO’s) holdings of parish (Church of England) registers and of transcripts and other copies of them. Parish Registers The NRO holds registers of baptisms, marriages, burials and banns of marriage for most parishes in the Diocese of Norwich (including Suffolk parishes in and near Lowestoft in the deanery of Lothingland) and part of the Diocese of Ely in south-west Norfolk (parishes in the deanery of Fincham and Feltwell). Some Norfolk parish records remain in the churches, especially more recent registers, which may be still in use. In the extreme west of the county, records for parishes in the deanery of Wisbech Lynn Marshland are deposited in the Wisbech and Fenland Museum, whilst Welney parish records are at the Cambridgeshire Record Office. The covering dates of registers in the following list do not conceal any gaps of more than ten years; for the populous urban parishes (such as Great Yarmouth) smaller gaps are indicated. Whenever microfiche or microfilm copies are available they must be used in place of the original registers, some of which are unfit for production. A few parish registers have been digitally photographed and the images are available on computers in the NRO's searchroom. The digital images were produced as a result of partnership projects with other groups and organizations, so we are not able to supply copies of whole registers (either as hard copies or on CD or in any other digital format), although in most cases we have permission to provide printout copies of individual entries.
