St Margaret's, Wellow

St Margaret's Church is ancient - 1215.  It is the burial place of Florence Nightingale to whom there is a memorial in the churchyard.  Many visitors with a connection to nursing come during the week to lay flowers and pay their respects, or sit on a bench to contemplate her legacy.  Please sign the visitor's book in the church when you visit!

Everyone is welcome at St Margaret's inclusive and friendly services.  We enjoy a traditional style of worship with our small choir leading us in hymns.  There is usually a warm drink and hospitality in The Church Rooms (by the car park) after a service, please come and get to know one another better.

We look forward to meeting you!
