St Margaret's, Ipswich

We are a warm and welcoming community, enjoying a variety of services and patterns of worship as we seek to draw closer to God and in so doing love and serve our neighbours as ourselves. We value our diversity and embrace our church music which combines both traditional and more contemporary forms of worship.

Our beautiful Grade 1 listed building, parts of which date from the 12th Century, stands at the edge of the town centre of Suffolk’s county town, Ipswich and next to the town’s impressive Christchurch Park. We are also fortunate to have a linked primary school and Church Centre located just across the road from the church.
