The City of Wells Almshouses Chapel was again full to bursting recently with a delighted audience as storyteller Beth Webb and harpist Nicola Devine recounted the tragic tale of the Death of Arthur, a story of love, romance, betrayal, loss, revenge and hope.

As the costs and expenses had been covered by sponsorship in advance, all the proceeds went to the refurbishment of the chapel.

The evening finished with a glass of wine in the Almshouses Guild Room and, as chair of the trustees Nick Wilson said at the close of the performance, another unusual but splendid event proved again what a perfect space the chapel provides for intimate performances and activities.

It is hoped that the chapel, once the refurbishment is complete, will host many more such events and become a regular venue for the people of Wells and the surrounding area.
