There is a small parking area for about 4 cars near the church entrance but we ask for this to be kept clear for disabled visitors and on special occasions eg for weddings and funerals. It is not recommended to park on the main road (New Rd) but nearby in Coleshill Rd. People also park at The Digby pub and Water Orton Carpark near the station (free for 1st 2 hours). The Link (Church Hall) has it's own carpark.
There are no steps or incline into the church. There is a step onto the dais at the front and a step into the chancel. Please inform the greeters or duty warden if you like to receive communion in your seat instead of going up to the altar.
