Brian Lomas’s Bench

Published 1 July 2020

As a tribute to Brian Lomas a bench has been positioned in the churchyard. This has been paid for by public subscription.
Brian ran the Churchyard Gang for years and was a Church Warden, a Trustee of Richard Crosse School and one time President of the Horticultural Society. He was heavily involved in all aspects of village life.
Thanks to Carl Easter whose firm installed the base and to Roger Price for attaching the bench.
Michael Lomas has generously agreed that excess funds from the subscription should be passed on to the All Saints Church Restoration fund. Any further contributions should be given to Glen Wright.
The plaque records one of Brian’s favourite expressions when looking over the churchyard “Where else would you want to be but here”
