I find it staggering that anyone in their right mind would want to demolish a perfectly good piece of built heritage which is evidently of great importance to local residents, the people who's authority it should rest with.

It is a shame that one of the oldest buildings in the village is under threat of demolition - if it goes, the all the history is lost and will never be receoved. I strongly object to the proposal

Is anyone aware or even concerned that ashes are buried beneath the south wall. We bult the Easter garden at the doorway in memory of dear departed faithful

grow up in the village and spent a happy childhood going to church with my family sharing very special memories there. I even got married there and it still holds a very special place in my heart. I feel very strongly about the demolition and truely hope the church will and should rightfully remain within village life

Its good to know these days that a church is wanting more room for worshipers. Go ahead, build on the north side increase your space, and let those who are protesting about demolition,get together "as a village of caring people"!!! and persuade the village hall and social club to allow extra parking for worshipers on a Sunday morning between 10 and 12 o'clock That may allow the "Villagers" to see their beautiful church be retained, and who knows, they might even wantt to join it.

I feel I may comment on this issue,in that I was a warden at the church for many years,and a regular worshiper there, my daughters all were married there, so it has a lot of deep memories for me.

Why should just the congregation have a vote? Isn't the church a key part of the village and its community. The term "village hangers on" is really insulting to the 100s of us who live in the village but aren't members of the church. Not a very Christian attitude is it?!

Don't demolish such a beautiful church. If you need more space then extend at the back where it can't be seen.

The only thing 'whipping up emotion' is the threat to the heritage of eldwick as a result of a few wanting to demolish the church.

Lovely old church - we should be preserving them not demolishing them - they are a vital part of our heritage!
