The Quaker Meeting at Stone was established in 1978 by two local Friends, Peter and Joan Holland. For several years we met in their home, but then we moved to a room in St Dominic’s Priory where we remained for several more years before returning to the Friends’ home while we sought more permanent accommodation. In 2003, we moved to rented accommodation in Stone’s restored Victorian Railway Station, which has proved ideal for our purpose, despite the high speed trains.

Meeting for Worship

Special Events
These are held two or three times a year. We’ve enjoyed weekends at the Quaker Centres in Woodbrooke (Birmingham) , Charney Manor (Oxfordshire), Glenthorne (Lake District) and Swarthmoor Hall (Cumbria), where friends can relax during the day and enjoy a social evening on Saturday and worship together on Sunday morning.
Day trips are many and varied but always to somewhere of interest with a good lunch included where possible! Visits have included Quaker Meetings in Shropshire and Derbyshire, a copper mine, Cadbury World, the Centre for Alternative Technology, the National Maritime Museum, a sculptor’s studio, the Greenbelt Festival, an industrial museum, Friends House in London and journeys on the canal.
