Brilliant to hear from you... and great to hear about the real place...

Emergency appeals
St Mary?s Stow in Lincolnshire
We are urgently seeking ?35,000 to cover the cost of unforeseen repairs at one of the oldest churches in the country. In May 2007 we started works to the roof at St Mary?s Stow during the course of which it became clear a number of roof beams were rotting and some of the masonry was in a worse condition than previously thought. We need to find funds to cover this extra work while the scaffolding is still in place. St Mary?s, despite being the ?finest Norman church in Lincolnshire? according to Sir John Betjeman, is relatively isolated and typifies problems faced by many parish churches.
These include small congregations facing rising costs of repair. WMF have already made a ?50,000 grant from the Robert W. Wilson Challenge To Conserve Our Heritage, but we need your help to raise the remaining funds
There is a button to donate... though it did "annoy" me that I could not just press a button and donate via PayPal.. however.. it was a fairly painless process and it was easy enough to donate...
Come on folks...
keep us informed of whats happening
