In the charity's own words
The charity exists to maintain and let our 5 cottages that were built on former church land centuries ago specifically to enable future provision for the church, so the charity oversees the letting and maintenance of the cottages, and applies the net rental proceeds to the upkeep of the church building and grounds, and to the church services.
