South Acre: St George

Welcome to St George's Church at South Acre.  We are not easy to find. The church is hidden away down a country lane, and is invisible until you are almost upon it. But it is well worth the journey. St George's has been described as one of the best small churches in England.

The church is so full of monuments and decorations, it's difficult to know where to begin. Look out for the 12th century crusader, the medieval glass, the 15th century benches - still used on busy Sundays, and the carved animal decorations - especially the frogs on the Rector's seat.  And don't forget the creepy tomb of Sir Edward Barkham - with a skeleton and a box of bones.

South Acre Church is part of the Nar Valley Benefice. We are a friendly community of worshippers, mainly from the local farms but also from further afield. South Acre Church is renown for its hospitality, particularly at Harvest and at Christmas-time. Do come and join us. You will receive a warm welcome.

Safeguarding

Our Benefice is committed to safeguarding children, young people and adults from harm. We follow the House of Bishops' guidance and policies. Each church has its own Parish Safeguarding Officer (PSO). Their contact details are available in our churches.

Our Diocese’s safeguarding pages contain vital links and information including contacts for the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor who advises our PSOs. If you are concerned that a child or adult has been harmed or may be at risk of harm please contact a PSO or the Diocesan Safeguarding Advisor. 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.
