COUNTDOWN TO...

There is an admission charge of £4.00 per adult, £2.50 per child aged 5-18 years, under 5s free, minimum charge £40

We recommend 1.5hrs for a visit. A standard group visit includes a 30-minute guided tour of the Museum and a 30-minute guided tour of the Church. Extra time can be added to allow visitors to use the facilities and museum shop, or for additional time to look around.

Our core hours are Tuesday-Saturday 11am-4pm. We can arrange ‘out of hours’ tours if we have enough notice. Please allow at least a month for a booking of this kind, as we will have to ensure that we have a keyholder present to open and shut the building in addition to booking the date & time with our tour guides. It is possible to take tours on a Sunday, however, these must fit around Church Services and are dependent on guides being available. A group would be welcome to join in a service, please allow more notice to arrange a Sunday visit. Wednesday lunchtime the church holds a short service of prayer and reflection 1pm-2pm so any visit on a Wednesday needs to work around this. Groups are welcome to join in the service, but please let us know when you make your booking.

Maximum 50 people split into two groups. Maximum 20 people for a group that wishes to always remain together.

Level access to the church, museum foyer and shop. Accessible toilets in the church and museum foyer. Stairlift to museum, suitable for person seated or in a wheelchair. Please be aware to have enough translators in your group if we need to split you up.

Contact curator@bunyanmeeting.co.uk to discuss your requirements and preferred date/times. We ask that you please give at least 2 weeks’ notice. Once the date has been agreed we ask that you complete and return one of our booking forms to confirm the booking. You do not need exact number of visitors at this stage – approximate numbers are fine.

Cash or Card on the day is fine. We can also invoice you for BACS payment.

For smaller groups light refreshments are available from the church coffee shop Tuesday-Saturday 10.15-1pm, please let us know if you wish to visit the coffee shop as part of your visit. No booking is needed for an individual to use this facility, but we strongly recommend advanced booking to avoid disappointment if 8+ members of your party are likely to visit the coffee shop as seating (and cakes) are limited. For larger groups we can arrange refreshments: Tea/Coffee and Biscuits - £1.50 per person. Tea/Coffee and Cake – £3.50. Tea/Coffee, cake, and sandwiches – £5.50. Please arrange at time of booking.

Please let us know as soon as possible, but a minimum of two working days before your visit. Cancelation after this time is 100% payment

Bunyan Meeting is an active church, we always try to work around existing bookings however if the church is needed for a funeral booking that will take priority. We will contact your group as soon as we are aware and make alternative arrangements where possible. Pre-order guidebooks for discounted rate of £2.50 (usual RRP £3.50) Parking – Lurke Street multistorey carpark is the closest carpark, blue badge holders can park outside the church for two hours (please check parking restrictions), Coaches should leave parties at the rear of Bunyan Meeting in Castle Lane and pick up at the same point; this is near the Museum entrance.
