Britain's What's On Event Guide
St John the Baptist Church and Wonersh Village Walk, Wonersh
Heritage Open Day: Why not make Wonersh, Surrey your destination on Saturday 14th September. You can combine a visit to the Grade II listed Church of St John the Baptist with a 45 minute self-guided walk “Exploring Historic Wonersh†A free leaflet and map which guides visitors around the centre of the pretty village of Wonersh, taking in many of its fascinating older buildings, can be picked up at the Church on Saturday morning. St John’s Church, probably originally Saxon, was re-built shortly after the Norman Conquest in the eleventh century, with additions made until the fifteenth century. Major rebuilding “in Meeting House style†was undertaken by Lord Grantley in 1793, after a fire, and further restoration took place in 1901 under Sir Charles Nicholson. Nevertheless, the core is still the Norman church. Members of Wonersh History Society will be on hand to answer questions.
