The church and House on the Rock are open for visitors on daily, except Tuesdays. Friday Lunchtime Concerts are held on Fridays at 12.30pm from September to July. Sunday services at 8.00am, 10.00am and 6.30pm
The coffee shop in Bury parish church is a sanctuary in more ways than one. It is an oasis of tranquility in a hectic world. The service is always friendly, the coffee reasonably priced and you get proper butter with your teacake. Heartily recommended.
