Gildencroft Let their lives speak

Push open the gate and you exchange tarmac for grass pathways. A green oasis greets you. You have found a hidden treasure, a sanctuary in a bustling city, a place of peace and quiet. Sit... rest... look around you and let its spirit move. You have come to the Gildencroft and the silence welcomes you. The Gildencroft is a tranquil acre of land organically managed; a haven for birds, bees, insects and wildlife. A Place for quiet contemplation and reflection, a simple lunch break, a stroll through the avenue of limes, breathing space in a busy world... Resting here are remains of thousands of Friends, also known as Quakers or Members of the Religious Society of Friends. Come and explore and take time to discover more about the lives of the Friends who have made this their home.
