St Mary, Ampney St Mary - 'The Ivy Church'

This delightful church building lies on its own in meadows between Ampney Crucis and Ampney St Peter on the A419. This is a plague church and the villagers moved away from the Ampney Brook hundreds of years ago. The surrounding land gets rather wet and boggy in the winter - so we tend to hold services of Evensong in the summer on the first Sunday of the month from May - September each year; and other special services from time to time.

There is some hardstanding car parking at the front of the grassed parking area.

St Nicholas, Hatherop

We are a friendly parish church seeking to deepen our faith, to serve our community and to enjoy the fulness of life that Jesus promised his followers. Together with the churches in Coln St Aldwyns and Quenington we are one of the "CHEQS" parishes in the South Cotswold Team Ministry.

Our morning communion services are of the 'Common Worship' format with a Sunday School taking place during this service. (We all worship together then children depart for their own activities, returning in time for the communion.) Refreshments are served after the morning communion service.

Evening Prayer is based on the 1928 BCP.

St John the Baptist, Coln St Aldwyns

We are a friendly parish church seeking to deepen our faith, to serve our community and to enjoy the fulness of life that Jesus promised his followers. Together with the churches in Hatherop and Quenington we are one of the "CHEQS" parishes in the South Cotswold Team Ministry.

Evening Prayer is based on the 1928 BCP.

Our church building dates largely from the thirteenth century, but it has been added to since and was restored in the Victorian era. The south porch is late Norman, the chancel's lancet windows date from the thirteenth century and the tower was completed in the fifteenth century. The chancel was refurbished in the early 20th century in commemoration of the first Earl St Aldwyn, his son and wife who all died in 1916. The church is, unusually, dedicated to the "decollation", ie beheading, of John the Baptist.

John Keble senior was vicar at Coln St Aldwyns for 40 years and his son John curate for 10. (John junior founded the Oxford Movement, and Keble College in Oxford was built in his memory.) Their ministry is commemorated in the church's east windows.
