Ludlow carols with BBC Shropshire

The carol service at St Laurence's will be broadcast on Christmas Day

Join us at the beautiful St Laurence's Church in Ludlow on Sunday 6 December for the recording of BBC Shropshire's annual carol service.

Doors open at 4.45pm - please be seated by 5pm. The recording will start promptly at 5.30pm.

Please remember that this is a medieval church and some seats have restricted viewing. Seats are assigned on the day, on a first-come, first-served basis.

Please also remember to wear warm clothes.

We are expecting another fantastic, traditional service and we'd love you to join us. The Reverend James Stewart will lead the service, and the new Bishop of Ludlow Alistair Magowan will provide the blessing.

BBC Shropshire presenters Eric Smith, Mike George and Jim Hawkins will all present readings as part of the service.

Tickets for the carol service are free, but limited.

The Bishop of Ludlow was consecrated at St Paul's Cathedral in September
