BERWICK CHURCH AND LUNCH AT THE CRICKETERS - a day out

We start the day off with a visit to Berwick Church. In 1941, during the Second World War, Bishop Bell of Chichester commissioned the Bloomsbury artists Duncan Grant, Vanessa Bell and her son Quentin Bell, to decorate the interior of the small rural church of St Michael & All Angels, Berwick. This was the first time that contemporary artists of repute had been allowed to completely decorate the interior of an historic country church. Bishop Bell hoped it would bring about a revival of the commissioning of artists by churches. See www.berwickchurch.org.uk

We then have lunch at The Cricketers Arms. A delightful country cottage pub set below the South Downs between the historic town of Lewes and the seaside resort of Eastbourne. They serve a wide selection of traditional homemade food dishes. See www.cricketersberwick.co.uk/menus/

You do have to preorder, so please post what you would like from the menu below in the message option.

We meet outside of the church at 12 noon. You can park near the cricketers Arms and the chuch is close by - there is a small car park at the church.

As always we could car share - I can take 3 comfortably and 4 if you are slim! Put all requests and offers below in the messages.
