About Us

Set in the village of Arlingham bordered on three sides by the River Severn, Arlingham church has served the local community for hundreds of years.

We are part of a group of fifteen parishes known as the Stroudwater Team of Churches, and details of events and services across our whole team can be found on our team website - details are in the contact section of this website.


The Church of St Mary the Virgin dates from the mid-fourteenth century in the decorated style and has been little altered. It still has some of the original stained glass windows of the highest quality. 

We hold two services a month as well as weddings, baptisms and funerals.  The church is supported by many local villagers who help on a practical level.  If you would like to find out more about how you can help do get it touch.
