Potholer

Sean Gilmore, a potholer, who had connections with the parish as a child, asked permission recently if he could explore under the vestry (at the base of the tower) to see if he could find any tunnels that are rumoured to exist under the church from the middle ages. Don’t hold your breath! All that he could uncover was the boiler for the old heating system in the church. Although the walls had been blocked up in modern block, probably in the fifties or sixties, so who knows what lies beyond!
