Church holds big knights out
8:48am Friday 18th July 2008
GIANT chess and boules were on offer at a church fun day.
Around 50 people attended the event at St Peter's Church, Pickford Lane, Bexleyheath, which also had a bouncy castle and other outdoor games.
Families enjoyed a chance to have a picnic in the church grounds, while handicraft and Fairtrade stalls raised around £50 for church funds.
Vicar the Rev Jim Charles said: "We thought it went very well. The main purpose was to get people to come and have fun.
"It's an attractive church and people were able to come and have a look around."
