The Nave (main church area): is a large open space which covers approximately 415sq. metres or 4467 sq. ft. Much of the church furniture within the space can be moved, making it extremely flexible for large events and meetings such as concerts, balls and awards ceremonies, however an aisle can be used if this meets event requirements. It benefits from a PA system, grand piano and Frobenius Organ all of which can be hired. The altar, with historic altar cloth is on wheels and wooden choir stalls can be moved as part of the hire or remain in-situ as a unique event feature. Capacity Approx 150 (sit down meal) 300 concert (theatre) style, Special services/events (Full Church capacity or standing room only 400+)
The East End: is a large semi-open space which is approximately 195sq. m/2099sqft. it makes for a unique setting which can be separated from the central crossing and nave (main church) by ornate metal gates which are easily closed. On the far east wall there is an area designated for the seven Saxon King embroideries. The East End is set out for café use with tables and chairs and has a useful servery. The East End is an ideal setting for smaller receptions, parties and memorials as well as acoustic concerts.
The Heritage Gallery (Choir Vestry): is a separate room to the northwest of the church. It has wooden flooring, panelled wooden sliding doors (where an extensive music library is stored) and it is where the choir robes are housed and choir get ready for services, hence the name. The ceiling is vaulted adding to the unique airy space. It is a flexible room and has been used as an additional area for larger events, as well as a standalone space for smaller intimate parties and receptions which all work well in the Heritage Gallery. It benefits from a newly installed AV system (Aug 24), which also makes the room ideal for meetings. Capacity: 25-30 around table/s 30+ concert (theatre) style.
Exhibitions:
- the nave – there are two walls which can be hired for exhibitions. Any work would need to be hung on picture rails via standard brass picture hooks. Slimline lighting strip runs the length of the picture rail to highlight our banners or your exhibition.
- other areas in the church – such as the central crossing, east end and Heritage Gallery may be considered for exhibitions if it does not cause obstruction or disrupt the daily ebb and flow of church life.
- the church grounds – exhibitions can be held in the church grounds. The pathways lend themselves beautifully to lead people around the church viewing either large sculptural works, photography or banner art work.
Grounds: during certain times of the year the grounds are available to hire. All enquiries are welcome.
