Back in March (episode 8), Clare Savory visited an almost forgotten chapel on the hillside between Woodhead and Crowden... Now a group of volunteers from across the Longdendale valley (and beyond) have rescued St James' Church.
In this special Christmas episode, Clare invites Longdendale Tales listeners in for a sneak peek of the first concert at the chapel in years.
Music is provided by Adrian Loader and Arnfield Brass Band. Tintwistle-based celebrant Steph Baker leads the service.
You can support the volunteers repairing St James by donating to their crowdfunder campaign here: crowdfunder.co.uk/p/st-james-church-restoration-fund
