A CELEBRATION was held to mark the 175th anniversary of a South Herefordshire church.

More than 60 people gathered at All Saints, Yatton, near Ross-on-Wye, on November 27 for a special service to commemorate the anniversary of its consecration in 1841.

The Bishop of Hereford, the Right Reverend Richard Frith, led the congregation in a joyful service which was rounded off with cake and a celebratory glass of bubbly.

The churchwardens thanked all those who helped make the event a success.
