Happy Easter
If you don’t intend to drive through Hornby or Crakehall this Easter, it is well worth a detour past St Mary’s Hornby and St Gregory’s Crakehall Church to see the Easter Cross at Hornby and the Easter Garden at Crakehall in the churchyards. Do stop for a quiet moment. Many thanks to Tony and Doreen; Liz, Alan, Stuart , Gilly and friends for their thoughtful work.
