These are the figures from the speed monitor for the period 26th Feb to 26th Mar. The monitor was located on The Green facing west. The total number of vehicles in this period was 9193.

The monitor is now located on Mill Road for the next 4 weeks.

Dear All,

I hope you are keeping well.

We’ve reached the part of Lent that’s called Passiontide, as our thoughts turn towards Holy Week and the cross. This Sunday’s services (3rd) are 9.30am Communion at Claxton and 11am Morning Prayer at Carleton St. Peter. Helen has produced a video service for Passion Sunday that you can watch here

The Barn will host the final Contemplative Prayer evening on Monday (4th) at 7.30pm – a time of stillness, quiet space and reflection. Please use this link if you’d like to join us online:

Saturday sees the last of this year’s Lent Lunches in the Barn. You’re welcome to drop in between 12 Noon and 3pm(Saturday 9th) for homemade soup and scones, bread and cheese and good company!  We’re supporting this year’s Diocesan Lent Appeal for Sag Sag Health Health Centre in Papua New Guinea. 

The following Sunday (10th) is Palm Sunday, and we mark the beginning of Holy Week by worshiping together at Rockland’s 10am Communion, followed by refreshments in the Barn.

Best wishes, Nick
