St. Edmund’s, Shipston on Stour
St. Edmund’s was open but the sign outside didn’t say so. It is quite dark inside but there is also quite a bit to see. There are guide books and some family history booklets. Also some gospels with a simple note ‘Please take one’ and some prayer cards to take away. 22 people had put entries into the visitors book this year.
There is a nice prayer area here with a prayer tree, prayer book, votive stand and some suggestions for prayers. This is all around a chapel in which the blessed sacrament is kept. This makes for a prayerful place to sit quietly for a time. Very good. There is a toilet here also. The church website is at http://www.st-edmundsshipston.co,uk which is a good site but doesn’t have any visitor information on it.
