St. Catherine’s. Manston, Kent

St. Catherine’s, Manston

Another church near Ramsgate and another locked one! I have yet to find a church open in the Ramsgate area. What is going on?

St. Catherine’s is a Victorian church and is again on a busy road and opposite a popular pub. There isn’t a website but the entry on achurchnearyou reveals that this is a well used building. They do host ‘Open Church’ sessions now and again but the dates weren’t given. It is next to Manston airport which has recently shut. The church is used for prayer meetings for this as there is a lot of local concern over what might happen here. This would seem to be reason enough to have the church open if it were just as a focus for this concern. This could become a centre for this. As it is I have to rate it as very poor.
