Welcome to St. Mary's Black Torrington.
With the nearby Parish Church at Highampton being closed for public worship, the two parishes have merged and we are now officially "Black Torrington with Highampton".
We welcome both parishes to St. Mary's for worship.
We are one of the six churches that make up the Ruby Country Benefice.
We take safeguarding very seriously, so please see our page about safeguarding
