According to F Treves in ‘Highways and Byeways Of Dorset’: Rampisham is one of the most beautiful villages in Dorset; sitting in a valley of trees through which runs a stream; it is a place of old thatched cottages.

The Church is important to all the people of the village, not just the few who attend on a Sunday. It is where they have been baptised, married and relatives buried. We have a willing team of volunteers who mow and strim, polish and dust to keep the Church in good heart.

This Church part of the Melbury team benefice. For further information about our church services, news and events, please visit Maiden Newton Church:
