Spetisbury: St John Baptist

St John the Baptist Church stands at the northern end of the village of Spetisbury. Services are held on most Sunday mornings throughout the year. 

We are a small community but, we think, a very generous one and welcome visitors and new members of the congregation very warmly. The origins of the church are medieval with links to an Augustinian monastic settlement in the village. 

The church was much rebuilt in 1858 with the sixteenth century pulpit retained. It contains a fine organ and an impressive peal of six bells rung by an enthusiastic and dedicated team of ringers.

 There are very close links between St John The Baptist and all the other churches in the Benefice

You can always be sure of a warm welcome at St John The Baptist at a Sunday service or at our busy ‘Coffee, Cake and Community Chat’  every 1st and 3rd Monday each month from 10:00 til 11:30am

Adjacent to the church is the Church of England primary school to which some 50+ children from Charlton Marshall attend.
