Wild February
Wild Spirit is an attempt to gather in the open air and engage with the natural world and the divine, taking time out to think and breathe and experience what is happening around us. You’re welcome, whoever you are, whatever you believe. We gather on the first Saturday of every month at 10am.
Wild February will be in an ancient woodland near Hastings.
This from John, who will facilitate for us this time:
We meet at the usual 10am on the first Saturday of the month – so February 3 2018 – in the car park of Church in the Wood. Here’s the Wiki link which has the map coordinates. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Church_in_the_Wood,_Hollington
The address is Church In The Wood Lane Hastings TN38 9PB
‘The entrance to Church in the Wood is about 200yards from a large TESCO Extra on the opposite side of the road and there is a brown tourism sign pointing down the lane saying ‘Church in the Wood’.
Church in the Wood, officially known as St Leonard’s Church and originally as St Rumbold’s Church, is an Anglican church in the Hollington area of the town and borough of Hastings, one of six local government districts in the English county of East Sussex. Although Hollington is now a large suburb, consisting mostly of postwar residential development, the church has stood in isolation in the middle of an ancient wood since it was founded in the 13th century—almost certainly as the successor to an 11th-century chapel. Restoration work in the Victorian era [ drat the Victorians!! ] has given the Early English Gothic-style building its present appearance, but some medieval work remains. Legends and miraculous events have been associated with the church, and its secluded situation has been praised by writers including Charles Lamb. The church is a Grade II Listed building.
As is our custom, we will meet for about an hour and part of that will involve the sharing of a bite to eat and something to drink, so feel free to bring things to share if you wish.
See you there.
Wild Spirit
