From the Parish Chest

For many years, a miscellaneous collection of books and papers have been held in the Parish Chest in St James Church, Badsey, or in the loft of the Vicarage. In January 2018, the Vicar and Churchwardens gave the items from the parish chest to The Badsey Society to review.  In January 2023, when clearing the Vicarage, several boxes of church-related documents were also given to The Badsey Society to review. The most precious items will be given to The Hive in Worcester for safe keeping, but many other items will be retained in archival-quality boxes in The Badsey Society archive and are slowly being catalogued.
