Honeybourne's beautiful medieval church is nestled near the bottom of the Cotswold scarp. It has stood for over 700 years, following its consecration in 1295 by the Bishop of St. Asaph, and regular services are still held here. The glorious golden stone exterior surrounds a simple white-washed interior which exudes calm and peace. The building has been altered over the years, but that adds to its charms. The church’s dedication to St. Ecgwin, founder of Evesham Abbey, reflects the link the village had throughout the medieval period with this major religious institution, which owned the land in the Church Honeybourne part of the modern village.

The parish of Church Honeybourne: St Ecgwin is committed to the safeguarding of children, young people and adults.
