Stoke St Milborough: St Milburga
The Church of St Milburga is the parish church for the village of Stoke St Milborough in South Shropshire. It stands in centre of the village of Stoke Saint Milborough, nestled between the Clee hills. The village was known as Godstoke in Saxon times and is thought to have belonged to the Saxon abbey at Wenlock. The Abbey was founded in 680 AD by Saint Milburga, daughter of Merewald of Mercia, who also gave her name to the village. It is said of St Milburga that she had a special relationship with geese. Once, when hordes of geese were eating the abbey’s crops, she politely asked them to leave and they all flew away. On another occasion, she was alerted by flocks of geese calling under her window warning of a Viking invasion.
Open daily to visitors, St. Milburga’s offers a variety of traditional and modern Sunday services, led by both clergy and lay members. Activities such as bell ringing, choir, coffee mornings, talks and conservation work take place in the church and you can find details of these in the Calendar further down this page.The address of the church is Church Lane, Stoke St Milborough, SY8 2EJ and the exact What3Words location of the church is: https://w3w.co/octopus.published.offer
