Something Different.
We have decided to have a series of evening services on the third Sunday of the month.  These will be of differing formats and at different times..
20th July:  4-30p.m.  Flower Festival Service.
17th August:  4-30p.m.  Picnic Service, bring your own picnic.
21st September:  4-30p.m.  "Songs of Praise" type service with a barbecue.  Please tell us if you have a favourite hymn you would like including.
We are located just outside Sheffield in a picturesque valley.  It is a peaceful place, well suited to exploring the wonders of God's creation.  A small congregation with a mix of ages,  we are evangelical in a traditional way, but are open to change and God's leading.  At the present time we are seeking guidance about different ways of presenting the gospel for the 21st century (and beyond!).  If you feel led to contribute to these developments, please get in touch.
Supper Club:
Starting on Thursday April 24th at 7-00p.m. we will be holding a supper club on the fourth Thursday of the month.  There will be a three course meal and an after dinner speaker.  For details of cost and how to book, please click here

History of the church.
The church dates back to 1872 when a Mr J.A. Grange of Mayfield House converted part of one of his barns into a preaching house.  Worshippers grew in numbers to 68, with a Sunday school of about 100 scholars.  After Mr Grange's death, the new owners required the barn and in 1896 the present chapel opened, the cost was in the region of £550.
Many different activities have taken place over the years, some still continue.  The triptych based on the Mayfield Valley was painted for the centenary celebrations in 1996.  The original building was extended by the addition of a schoolroom at the rear, in the early 1990s.  This makes the premises more flexible for activities in addition to Sunday worship.
