  Holy Trinity

  Welcome to this lovely village church. There has been a Church on the present site for almost 900 years, but it was substantially rebuilt in the early/mid 1500's with a capacity of about 100. The church is open during daylight hours and is enjoyed by many visitors, especially the Cotswold Way walkers.

  Services are held on two Sundays in the month. There is a mixture of Common Worship and Book of Common Prayer services in this church.

  Cold Ashton is a rural/commuter village, set in an area of outstanding natural beauty on the southern edge of the Cotswold escarpment. The Cotswold Way footpath passes through the Churchyard of Holy Trinity Church and continues through much of the parish. The church is open during the day and regularly welcomes visitors from city churches who come to pray and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. The parish is made up of several scattered hamlets principally Pennsylvania, Nimlet, part of St Catherine's and Hamswell.

  The parish of Cold Ashton is committed to the safeguarding of children, young people and adults. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer, PSO. For more information and for contacts, please click on 'Safeguarding'.

  St James

  St James's Church lies in the small village of West Littleton on the border of Wiltshire and Gloucestershire. The church is Grade 2 listed and has a particularly fine 13th century turret and bellcote. Following a fire in the 19th century, the church was largely rebuilt, including a new porch and vestry, in 1855 under the supervision of Thomas Wyatt, architect of the Salisbury Diocese.

  There are two services every month - one a service of Holy Communion and the other a traditional service of matins, both from the Book of Common Prayer. Matins is usually led by a Licensed Lay Minister (Lay Reader) and both services welcome any visitors. Holy Communion is a said service but there are hymns during the service of Matins.

  The church is open during the day and regularly welcomes visitors from city churches who come to pray and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.
