Britain's What's On Event Guide
The Church of St Peter and St Paul, Bardwell
Heritage Open Day: Bardwell Church is a fine 15th Century, grade I listed building with two notable 'treasures': a painted hammer beam roof in the nave and two medieval stained-glass windows. The medieval stained-glass windows, which include an image of Sir William de Berdewell were removed, restored and cleaned as part of a repair and reordering project in 2019 with thanks to the Heritage Lottery Fund. An outcome of this grant enabled us to produce guide materials both for the church and of the life of Sir William de Berdewell. One of our four remaining 'angel' bosses in the nave is dated 1421, MCDXX1, indicating that this part of the church is early 15th Century. We have the grave in our churchyard of Henry Addison who was awarded the Victoria Cross in 1859 for his actions in the Indian Mutiny. There is a children's trail will be available and on Saturday 16th there will be a concert in the church by Suffolk Singers with Clive Paine as the guest speaker at 1700.
