Summary

[edit]
Description
English: St Michael's church - war memorial. The war memorial is located on the chancel north wall. The church of St Michael and All Saints used to once serve the parish of Whitwell. Three churches share the churchyard, two of which, St Mary's, the parish church of Reepham > 766134 - 766136 - 766141, and St Michael's, are still being used - the latter (at present) mainly as a place for community meetings, children's services and coffee mornings; there are plans of opening the chancel to the public. Only part of a wall remains of All Saints, Hackford, ruined since the 16th century > 891170 - 891179. St Michael's church > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/765636 - https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/891239 was extensively restored in the 19th century. The west gallery was added in 1834 > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/891236. The building can be accessed through a corridor that now links its chancel, via the vestry, with the nave of St Mary's. During services access via the south porch is possible also. The pews in the nave have been removed in order to make room for simple chairs and tables and of the church furnishings only the Jacobean pulpit in the corner remains > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/891231. A thick curtain separates nave from chancel, the latter intact with furnishings. The east window > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/891248 - a memorial to the fallen in WWI - is by Reginald Frampton (d. 1919). Presently the church is being kept locked.
