About Us

A beautiful old building of Norman origin with many additions from the C13th - C16th, and graced with a very tall stone octagonal tower, visible across lush farmland from many directions.

Part of the Benefice of Bartestree Cross, including Lugwardine, Dormington, Westhide and Weston Beggard.

A member of Herefordshire Churches Tourism Group. open to visitors daily. www.visitherefordshirechurches.co.uk

At present we are in the midst of building repairs to the chancel.

Inside, the damp-damaged plaster has  been removed in the chancel. The exposed walls will be left for a few more months to thoroughly dry out, before new lime plaster and paint is applied.

The work is 93.2% paid for by the Church Commissioners who bear responsibility for the maintenance of the Chancel. The remainder of the payment is our responsibility and is being met by a bequest and some grants.

Do pay us a visit to see what's going on!

Our last building work doesn't seem so long ago either! ............to provide up-to-date facilities, suitable for the C21st! We had mains water and mains sewage connected, allowing us to make huge improvements and providing an accessible toilet, suitable for all, and a kitchen.

We also had a level-floored hospitality area made to the W end of our church, next to the kitchen and toilet area.

A team of enthusiastic helpers  have been taking “Open the Book” to Withington Primary School once a month.

However we need to find new members who can help - both in the story reading/acting and helping make and store props. we have recently lost members. Training is easy to arrange and it is all good fun to engage in!

Look out for:

A good selection of well arranged books donated as a library exchange for a small donation, and we are a collection point for the Hereford Food Bank
