Heritage Open Day: The church will remain open for guests to explore, from the choir loft the pews.
A leaflet will be available for visitors which includes information on the parish and the history of the building. In the early 1950s the parish set about the task of completing the church. In 1962 the church was finished with only one variation from Sir Giles’ original conception in the form of a somewhat massive screen with stone dressings, mullioned windows and swing doors in ring-cupped oak at the west end, with a gallery overhead. The narthex thus formed providing an area for material affairs, helping to keep quiet the main body of the church.
In 1878 Captain and Mrs Arthur Rutt came to live in Broadstairs.
