This is a special event for children and families - take part in a nature trail, spotting wildlife (insects and plants) in a field on top of Henley Hill in Wookey. Plus, bring your own picnic with you and enjoy summer in the countryside as you take part in activities, including prayers for children. Henley Hill is reached via a gate on Henley Lane (towards the A371 end of the road), with the entrance to the field on your left-hand side when coming from the centre of Wookey.

Christ Church, Henton

Welcome to our page on A Church Near You! 

Christ Church Henton is a beautiful church in the village of Henton, near Wells. We are part of a group of 3 churches and 4 parishes, known as a benefice, which are looked after by Revd Jan Shellard-James.

There are services every Sunday, however if there is a 5th Sunday in a month, a service might take place at a different church in the benefice. There is also a weekly prayer meeting which is held every Monday. On the 1st Sunday of the month is a relaxed service over breakfast at Henton Village Hall, which is free, and very much enjoyed. You are very welcome to come to any of our services or events, and details of these can be found on this website, or on our own website www.chwchurches.co.uk There are also more details about the this church and the benefice on our website.

If you have any enquiries about baptisms, christenings, weddings, funerals or memorials please get in touch with us.

We look forward to welcoming you to our church!
