as part of the celebration of this anniversary of St Michael’s Church, Gidding History Research Group is in need of your help – we are looking for photographs, memories, newspaper cuttings or documents about events in the Church, people connected with the Church, or maybe something like the annual Church fete. When you are visiting or talking to friends and family members associated with the village please ask if they have any material too. We will take a copy of your photo or document, or type out your words, and these will be displayed on the boards in Church.
Please make contact via thegiddingshistorygroup@outlook.com We will start planning the display early in 2026 and very much look forward to hearing from you.
