St Peter & St Paul’s Churchyard Blossoms
St Peter & St Paul’s Shelford have created a flourishing churchyard as they do their part to care for creation. In 2019, the PCC was presented with a report from a firm of arboriculturists about the condition of the trees in the churchyard which implied the need for sums of money which they didn’t have. But then lockdown struck, and nothing happened.
