Welcome to The Friends of St Eadburgha's
CARING FOR OUR 12th CENTURY CHURCH
In 1969, The Friends of St Eadburgha's was established as a charity with the object of assisting in the care and preservation of the Church and Churchyard. To meet the ongoing needs, the Friends contribute funding to the PCC. Recent projects have been new oak pews subsidised by individual Friends following the flood in 2007 and a replacement new organ in 2019.
St Eadburgha's Church is Broadway's only Grade 1 listed building and it can be found about one mile outside the village on Snowshill Road. The building and churchyard are the responsibility of the Parochial Church Council (PCC) based at St Michael and All Angels, which was built in 1840. Since then, St Eadburgha's fell into disrepair until, in 1916, substantial repair work was carried out, including a new roof.
The Tower dates from the 14th century and the current bells date from the 17th century. It is said that a former peal of bells, which was removed and buried by monks from Pershore Abbey during the Dissolution, owed their sweet tone to the silver that was added to the melt during manufacture. Alas, their burial place has never been found.
