Home
Welcome to the web site of the Parish Church of St. Botolph Longthorpe, which is situated at Thorpe Road, Longthorpe, Peterborough PE3 6LU.
What's going on at St Botolph's Church?
April 2021
- A new floor is being laid at the west end of the church
- Rotten and insecure woodwork has been removed
- Rotten and loose plasterwork has been renewed
- The organ has been taken 'off site' for a major, long overdue, overhaul and upgrading, which includes additional pipes
- The chancel screen is being relocated
- The choir stalls and pulpit have been removed
This is all part of the project for 'Honouring our Past and Looking to our Future' which has been nearly 14 years in preparation, consultation and planning.
The congregation gave overwhelming approval to the proposals following presentations in 2012 and the Parochial Church Council gave formal approval to proceed in 2013.
Extensive consultations were held with appropriate statutory bodies, including English Heritage, The Victorian Society, The Church Buildings Council and the Diocesan Advisory Committee before authority to proceed was granted by the Diocese.
Our Project Vision
- Undertake urgent renovations to preserve historical features
- Allow more inclusive and flexible worship
- Become an intimate venue for musical events and support the development of young musicians
- Grow as a health and wellbeing 'hub'
- Celebrate our history
- Improve the church layout for key life events and enable access for all
For more information see the Our Project web page or the Information Board in the church porch.
