Website revamp

We are at this time having the site re-built with a completely new package and this may mean that regular visitors will either come up with a 404 page not found , or this site has now been moved, this is another reason why we have set this blog up so that if anything such as this happens we can still keep you all informed about our upcoming events.

Whilst the website is down the following system is being used for any contact:
Delapre Abbey Telephone number is : 01604 708675
If you need to contact Graham his mobile number is : 07792018746 but should only be used in an emergency
This brings us on to the next important event to be held at Delapre Abbey.
