Introduction to parish

Our services combine dignified worship with informality. We are fortunate to have a first-class organist, and sing music ranging from old favourite hymns to modern settings.

The 10 a.m. Parish Eucharist on Sundays offers facilities for families. There is a regular Sunday School, with children joining their parents in church, followed by coffee, biscuits, etc.

Special services from time to time include Mothering Sunday, Harvest Festival, Nativity Play, Christmas Carol Service and Christingle.

We have a number of social events, including Coffee Mornings, Harvest Supper, Bonfire and Fireworks, Christmas Party, and a summer lunch in the garden.

Details of the church

The church began in 1855 as a little cottage chapel in Castelnau, then expanding into the building of the present church in 1868. The church plan consists of a nave without aisles, vestigial transepts and chancel. It is constructed of coursed ragstone with dressed stone quoins and buttresses in a free Decorated style.

The church originally contained 12 stained glass windows, which were all destroyed by bombing during the Second World War.
