A 4-metre-high mole has taken up residence in the walled garden at Coventry Charterhouse. Pepperpot the Mole is a striking outdoor sculpture by contemporary artist Bruce Asbestos, bringing a bold and unexpected presence to this historic setting. During your visit, you can spot the sculpture in the garden and follow a family-friendly trail around the garden, discovering where Pepperpot has been and learning more about moles and the natural world along the way.

Rosary

The rosary, in which we ask Mary to assist us with her prayers as we ponder some of the mysteries of the Gospel, is a simple devotion that many find helpful. If you have never used the rosary before you are welcome to join us, and we will guide you through it. For anyone praying with us from home a booklet is attached here to introduce the devotion.
