St Brendan

Dear Church Visitor,

The church of St Brendan stands rather remotely at the top of a steep hill and some distance from the village of Brendon. There are currently no regular services but there are services to celebrate major festivals in the church year such as Harvest Festival and a carol service. Parishioners are welcome to join the congregation at other churches in the Lyn Mission. There are often invitations to join the congregation at The Blessed Virgin Mary at Oare which for many is more convenient in travelling distance.

The image on the home page is the intricately carved reredos behind the altar, the work of John William Floyd 1871 - 1935, a craftsman carpenter who made it his life's work to produce wood carvings for the church.
