About The Hermitage
In accord with our understanding that nothing is outside the purview of God, that
'Christ is not divided', the development of the hermitage is taking place in a way
which honours + realises 'interbeing'.
This means that relational, environmental and ecological concerns which emerge
from within a practice of mindfulness are uppermost.
Set in the north-east Uplands Sensitive Landscape Area, the building itself is
being developed:
- to be disablement friendly,
- with the lowest carbon footprint we are able,
- with (when sufficient donations arrive) power will be from PV panels - at present
there is only a couple of hours electric light per week, and
- the land is cared for sustainability in harmony with its existing wild
+ mountainous environment, to provide biodiversity of bird, insect, mammal
and amphibian species. It is being planted largely with flora which normally
occur here.
