Chelsfield: St Martin of Tours

NOVEMBER 2024 - our main website is currently unavailable but we're working on it! In the meantime if you have any queries about Brass Crosby room bookings please email [email protected]

St Martin’s and Well Hill Mission are committed to enabling as many people as possible to worship at our churches and to become part of our parish community. We have services with different styles of worship across the month, mainly Common Worship but also Book of Common Prayer. Most of our services have hymns accompanied by organ, we have a choir and an active band of bellringers.

The Parish Church of Chelsfield, Kent, is dedicated to St.Martin of Tours. The earliest parts of the current church building were constructed in the 12th century. A tower and chapel were added in the 13th century, a porch in the 15th century, the current clergy vestry in the 19th century and the Brass Crosby Rooms in 2007.

The Parish includes the Mission Church of Well Hill, built in 1893 as one of the string of Mission Chapels for Hop Pickers in the Darenth Valley.

Chelsfield parish is part of the Benefice of Chelsfield, Green Street Green and Pratts Bottom.

Well Hill Mission

Well Hill Mission has a thriving congregation from the local community. There are two morning services a month, usually on the 2nd and 4th Sundays.

Well Hill Mission chapel was built in 1893 on land donated by the Hart-Dyke family of Lullingstone Castle. Originally part of the Parish of Shoreham, it was one of three Mission Chapels to be built to accommodate the growing number of hop and fruit pickers. It is located about a mile East of Chelsfield Village and is reached at the end of a single-lane track leading off of Well Hill Road.
