Coronavirus

Feeling bored with being shut up at home?  Need some exercise? 
Want something sensible to do with the children?

Why not take a walk around Charlwood and look at some of our historic buildings (from the outside).  Providence Chapel has a useful 8-page guide giving directions and a short description of each of 28 historic features.  

It was written for us by Steph Page, based on an earlier guide written by Jean Shelley for the Charlwood Society, and printed for us by the Heritage Lottery Fund

You will find it HERE.  Why not print off a copy to help you discover things you never knew about Charlwood?

Sorry we can't invite you inside to look at the recently restored chapel but you are welcome to walk around the outside.
