The Surrey Hills LEADER Grant Scheme has awarded £2,960 to St Bartholomew’s Parish Church in Burstow towards the cost of repairing rotten timbers. The Grade 1 listed building, which dates back 1000 years, is the hub for many community activities both in Burstow and for neighbouring Smallfield.Parishioners had already raised in excess of £18,000 towards the bill and the grant will mean that the church can concentrate on providing community activities rather than devoting all its energy to fundraising.
