Portraits through the ages will be the focus of a history workshop at a north Suffolk church.

St Mary's Church at Redgrave is hosting the event, called 'People Power', on September 30 from 10.30am-4pm, which will be led by lecturer Tania Harrington.

June Shepherd, workshop organiser, said it would be the latest in a popular series of study days the church has run since 2007, covering everything from Richard III to First World War airmail.

She said: 'From the start our team aimed at providing history lovers with something more meaty than an evening lecture, yet not as involving as a several-month course.

'An added interest is that the study days all take place inside a beautiful building which is itself historically important.'

Cost is £18, including a light lunch. To book, send SAE to Mrs J. Shepherd, Barn View, Chapel Lane, Botesdale IP22 1DT, with cheques made out to Redgrave Church Heritage Trust.
