About Us

We are a friendly and welcoming church and recognise that the Church is now the only facility in the village for the whole community and we are looking to build on this. We have a choir which has been singing in both our monthly services, as well as special services (e.g. for the Coronation and the annual carol service) and are always happy to consider new members: please contact the Churchwarden, David, if you are interested in joining us ([email protected]).

The Church is open most Wednesdays, Saturdays and Sunday from approximately 9:30 to 5 pm but it may be possible to arrange for access at other times.
