Makara Churches and Historic Cottage Tour
Can we use the banner that was on our application last year
The Makara Churches St Matthias and St Patricks date back to the 1800's. Monk Cottage built in 1867 is used as a local musuem for the area.
The churches and cottage will be open over one weekend from 10am till 3pm for people to visit. They are all within walking distance of each other.
Local people will be on site to talk to visitors. The cottage has information about early settlement of the area. St Patricks church has beautiful stained glass windows dedicated to early settlers. St Matthias has a graveyard where the early settlers are buried.
Health & Safety
No particular health and safety issues apart from possibly someone tripping on an entry step. None of the buildings have difficult entryways, only 2 or 3 steps to get inside.
The road outside is quite busy at weekends so care must be taken getting in and out of cars if parked outside the grounds. There is plenty of parking inside the venue area off the road.
