St Peter's
St Peter's Bekesbourne sits on a hill in the centre of the village and is approached through private land on public footpaths and a graveled track. It is sometimes known as the Church in the Garden and benefits from a wonderful peel of church bells as the Bekesbourne Band of Bell ringers meet weekly to practice and ring at events throughout the year. Regretfully, access to the church may be difficult for the disabled.

St Mary's
When the original St Mary's church fell in to disrepair in 1830 a new church was built thanks to £2000 left by a prishoner in his will. The beautiful church still contains the original font from 1217 made from Bethersden Marble, one of only two of its kind in Kent.
