A QUINTESSENTIAL event in one of East Hampshire’s most impressive churches will kickstart the festive season at The Hangers this weekend.

Froxfield Choir will be accompanied by Quintessential Brass for their traditional service of nine lessons and carols.

The annual service will take place at 6.30pm this Saturday, December 23, in the stunning setting of Holy Trinity Church in Privett.

Entry is free with a retiring collection but remember to wrap up warm as there is no heating in the church.
