Discover why, and explore 100 objects that tell our church's 800-year story.

If you've been in Redcliffe today, you may have seen some digging going on at #stmaryredcliffe. The team from @wessexarch are currently on site carrying out archeological investigations in the churchyard at either end of the church.
The purpose of the work is to look for possible locations for equipment relating to Air Source Heat Pumps and potential pipe routes for a new accessible toilet at the west end of the church.
