Activities

With a building the age of St Andrew’s there is always work to be done to maintain it. Over the last few years we have replaced the porch roof and a rotten wall plate, repointed flints on the western wall of the church, and replaced inappropriate hard render in the interior former North door area of the church. In 2012 we installed new heaters and fitted pew cushions. Refurbishment of the iconic bellcote was completed the following year, and our most recent ventuures were the replacement of the interior lighting and refurbihment of the church door.

Some members of the local community have formed The George Herbert in Bemerton Group, and each year they they organise various events to mark the association of George Herbert with Lower Bemerton.
