Visit to Fairfield Moravian Settlement

We had great weather (i.e. it was dry, if a little cold) when 20 members and friends visited the settlement in Droylesden, about six miles from the parish. Once in the settlement it is so peaceful it is easy to forget you are in the middle of a huge urban connurbation.

We were made very welcome, with a guided tour of the church and the wider village settlement. The history of the Moravian church and the settlent was explained. It was a surprise to hear that the church and many of the buildings have been there since 1785. The Moravian's have long been promotors of education and Fairfield School has evolved from the Settlement's original girls' school.

If you arrange a visit you are guaranteed a friendly welcome, an interesting tour, and excellent tea and buiscuits. Don't miss the museum.
