My dear Friends, As we travel around the country, I am sure that we all notice that so many villages as well as towns and cities have a Parish Church. It almost makes the village seem quintessentially English. In the smaller places, the School may have been disbanded, the Shop and Post Office closed through lack of trade and the Pub has been turned into private a house or the landlord is struggling to make ends meet. In our two parishes, that is the case in the Affpuddle parish, though we are fortunate in having a thriving and beautiful Village Hall in Briantspuddle and it is always great to hear of – and sometimes to participate in - all that goes on there. In Bere Regis, being somewhat larger in population, we are lucky to have various facilities by way of a beautiful new School, two Pubs, a well-stocked Shop, a Post Office, Sports Club, a Hair-dressing Salon and various meeting venues, including
