Welcome to St Mary's Swerford

St Mary's Church was founded in the late 12th Century by the monks of Osney Abbey. It is valued for its ancient heritage, its beauty and its calm atmosphere of dedication and contemplation. St Mary's is open for private prayer and worship.

Services tend to be traditional in nature, most using the Book of Common Prayer.
