There is a Quaker Meeting in Wigton at which visitors are always welcome. The Meeting House is situated in West Street, Wigton, close to the centre of the town. Wigton is a small market town lying between Carlisle and the northern edge of the Lake District National Park.
Meeting for Worship takes place every Sunday at 10.45 a.m. and all are welcome, not only members but anyone who wishes to enjoy the quiet of a Quaker Meeting. Enquirers are no less welcome; their questions will be answered but there will be no pressure to take the connection further.
Meeting for Worship: Sunday 10.45 - 11.45 am followed by tea/coffee. Children's Meeting: There is no children's class but children are very welcome. |
