A historic church will host free musical recitals over the next month.

Waltham Abbey Church, in Abbey Gardens, has launched ‘Saturday Music for Lunch’, which will take place every Saturday until November 29.

The events feature a variety of instrumental recitals, including organ, solo guitar, flute and horn performers.

The pieces will be presented by young students from the Royal College of Music and the Trinity Conservatoire of Music and Dance.

Each recital begins at 12.30 pm and admission is free but there is a collection at the end of the event.
