Welcome to St Martins Stamford Baron
We are a group of ordinary people who find in Jesus of Nazareth a purpose for our lives. Everyone is welcome to come and join us, whatever their stage in the journey of life and faith. "Come and see," as the Good News invites.
The Church building is one of the five surviving mediaeval Churches in Stamford and lies to the south of the River Welland in an area settled by Anglo-Saxons in 918. It houses the tombs of the Cecil family including William Cecil, Lord High Treasurer to Elizabeth I. It also has some fine mediaeval stained glass windows. Burials include the Dutch painter William Wissing(1687) and Daniel Lambert (1809) in the detached part of the churchyard.
Our parish of St Martin Stamford Baron is committed to safeguarding children, young people and adults from harm. We follow the House of Bishops guidance and policies and have our own Parish Safeguarding Officer (PSO). Our Diocese of Lincoln’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor who advises our PSO. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact the PSO [add their details here or use the button to link to a page that shows the info] or the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor [add their details here or use the button below to link to your own page that shows the info or the diocesan safeguarding page]. If you have immediate concerns about the safety of someone, please contact the police and your local authority’s children or adult social care services
