Evensong at St Mary’s

Evensong is described by The Guardian as ‘one of England's richest heritages – a living musical tradition that costs nothing to experience live’. Every month, we hold a service of Choral Evensong so you can appreciate this wonderful and evocative institution in the ancient surroundings of St Mary’s, Thornbury. The service has been sung regularly since the 16th Century and is based on the daily offices held in the medieval church. Music – and the choir – is at its heart, and each service taps into the rich vein of English church music composed throughout the centuries. Because of its ancient lineage, the old forms of the prayers and bible readings are used. After the introduction to the service, the choir recites the appointed Psalm which you can follow in the Prayer Book. The Lesson from the Old Testament is read and then the Choir sing the Magnificat, the song of the Blessed Virgin Mary. The New Testament Lesson is followed by the Choir singing the Nunc Dimittis, the song of Simeon. We then say together the Apostles’ Creed, and prayers are sung by a Cantor and the Choir which end with a reflective period where the Collects are read. An anthem is sung and a final hymn concludes the service, leaving you to sit for as long as you want and reflect on the day gone by. If you get a chance, do come along to this rarely held service and be steeped in history.

It’s very simple this one. On the second Thursday of every month we invite a different local charity to act as quizmaster and host our Sally Alley Quiz.

Summer holidays at Tortworth Arboretum

Enjoy a self-guided summer walk through the Dell at Tortworth Arboretum. Summer is a wonderful time to visit, with the arboretum in full leaf and the woodland buzzing with life. Perfect for families during the summer holidays, visitors can explore marked woodland trails, pick up child-friendly activity maps, and try our nature rubbing trails. Whether you follow a route or head off on your own adventure, there’s plenty to discover among the native, exotic and veteran trees. Since 2014, volunteers have been carefully restoring this ancient woodland, uncovering historic features, creating paths, and helping wildlife thrive while keeping the arboretum beautifully wild in places. After your walk, follow the smell of woodsmoke back to the Roundhouse for a warm drink and a rest. Get outside, explore nature, and reconnect this summer. Tickets and information Our 2026 visitor days are supported by funding from the National Lottery Awards for All Environment Grant. Tickets are now available on a sliding scale donation basis. If you are booking multiple tickets, you can mix and match tiers to suit each person’s circumstances, so a family or group can attend comfortably without anyone facing hardship. For further information on each of the tiers to help you decide, please see this page. By making a donation of any amount, you support both the ongoing restoration of the arboretum and our woodland wellbeing programme, which helps people struggling with their mental health.
