                                         Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth ll
                                                                           21 April 1926 - 8th September 2022

..
Eternal rest grant unto her O Lord,
Let perpetual light shine on her,
​May she rest in peace. Amen

​The day after the very sad death of our beloved Queen, the Chapel was open as usual but the Royal Air Force Ensign flew at half mast.  Many visited to sign the Book of Condolence. The atmosphere was sombre. Classical  music,  fitting for the occasion, was playing quietly.   One visitor said  - I just had to come - perhaps voicing the feeling of many.  With church bells throughout the country, the Chapel bell tolled,  for an hour from 12 o‘clock.

A small display remembering Her Majesty is in the Chapel.
