The 'church in the field' has been the centre of the community for hundreds of years. An interesting building, showing the influence of many periods. There is a real community feel to all of the services here - and the Summer Fete. Come to join, or be part of, East Tytherley - you would be most welcome. In 2012 a restoration of the organ was completed and has a new 'lease of life'.
