Once a disused Church, it was bought in 1988 by committed Christians and Socialists Joy and David Mitchell with the intention of creating a Peace Church. When David died suddenly in 1989, Joy continued restorations and campaigning as an anti-war and anti-nuclear activist.

Joy held regular services, speaker meetings and coffee mornings, open to all, and gave shelter to homeless people. Friday meetings evolved into a socialist discussion and reading group covering topics from poetry to Islam, philosophy and the history of thought. Each month she convened a peace vigil. Joy passes away on 11 March 2022 and the Church is now under the stewardship of Helen Rutherford.

Our thanks go to the Berwick Unions Council and Helen Rutherford for allowing us to use the Peace Church.
