Biography
John Stuart Hippisley Horner served faithfully as an Anglican priest at St Andrew's Church, Mells, guiding the congregation through the changes of the mid-19th century with patient preaching and a listening ear.
He embodied pastoral care that went beyond the pulpit, visiting homes, supporting schools, and ensuring that faith became a steady comfort, and the churchyard remains the place where his life of service is remembered.
