Summer Concert 2026

The Kelvedon Singers are delighted to be returning to St Peter’s ad Vincula in Coggeshall.

Coggeshall’s parish church is a magnificent Grade I listed building and one of the largest ‘wool churches’ in Essex.  Built in the early 15th century during the peak of the local wool trade it sits on a site that hosted Christian worship since Saxon times. It has faced difficulties over the centuries, and following a period of neglect, the church underwent a major, sympathetic restoration in the 19th century. However, in 1940 a Luftwaffe bomb destroyed much of the north-west end and caused the nave’s roof to collapse. The extensive reconstruction and repair took place from 1955-1958.

Today the Church remains at the heart of the community, not only as a centre for worship, but as host to many activities, groups and concerts. It once again faces difficulties, with the soaring cost of maintenance, energy and funding for vicar and vicarage.

Our Special Summer Concert will raise much needed funds for the Church.

With Buck’s Fizz and delicious canapés in the Interval, and music to suit all tastes, we promise you an evening to delight and lift your spirits.

Tickets: £20 including Buck’s Fizz and canapés available in advance from:
