About

History of the building
Early drawings of the church show a minstrel's gallery and some of the earliest passion plays, including one for St. George's Day, were put on in Bassingbourn when they used the space for drama, music and dancing, as well as celebrations during the year, such as Christmas and Easter.
Our vision
To return the interior of the building into a form that will allow it to be an open community space once again.
​
The works taking place
The work will see a return to the original layout, along with an improved heating system, will allow us to do so much more for you, and the generations yet to come, as we serve and build our community in the heart of Bassingbourn.

We are putting in a locally sourced natural stone floor with underfloor heating which, in the future, will allow us to move away from the current oil heating and use greener energy efficient heat sources such as heat pumps. The current stone memorials, called 'ledger stones' are being retained.

​At the back of the church there were improvised kitchen units housing a sink linked to an outdoor tap. This is being replaced by modern kitchen and toilet facilites hidden behind oak panelled units, alongside the beautiful open central space with flexible seating. This will make the building suitable and welcoming for both young and old.
Once complete we will continue running our Tots & Toddlers group, Craft Groups, Messy Church, and so much more across all age groups.

​​During the week, high quality coffee would be served. We have reached an agreement with Hot Numbers to supply coffee from their roastery at Shepreth and for them to train our own team to serve excellent coffee and food to our community, and beyond.
​
Looking forward to making the church a warm, friendly open community space again for many generations to come; as it was first intended and used.
