In all the years the Revd Canon Guy Bridgewater has been Rector of Bath Abbey, it’s the first time l have seen him out of a dog collar.
He has recently retired and is looking forward to a more rural existence with his wife Jebs – the woman who has been at his side throughout his many years of ministry.
Guy has to be one of the most interesting and humorous people l have enjoyed chatting to since Wyatt’s Place podcasts got underway.
He has a way with words, to be sure. Listen in to hear how a broken record player and lost glasses played a role in his choosing the Church as a career.
Also, how – arriving to take up his post at Bath Abbey during the Footprint Project – he’d been warned about the lack of heating, and brought a supply of thermals!
There’s lots more from the man who led our parish church through major reconstruction and Covid to becoming one of the most visited churches in the country.
This interview – and many others with local people and personalities – is available on Spotify. Look for podcasts and Wyatt’s Place!!
