A grand 'wool' church with a magnificent 15th century tower and a friendly congregation using modern English services and a variety of music.
We've stopped using hymnbooks for the Sunday service, as all the words come up on the screen, with pictures to aid worship. For those who can't read from the screen, everything is also printed. Large print hymns etc need to be ordered in advance but we're very happy to produce them (01485-600335). It could be a good idea to check on the children's provision, as people do have holidays!
Registers are extant from 1552 are available for inspection. Email William Howard to discuss an appointment or a query.

On the Second and Fourth Sundays of each month, this is an alternative kind of worship event for all ages. We have completely renovated a Barn at Vong Farm, Vong Lane and warmed it up to offer a friendly welcome. The seats are a bit more comfortable than church pews too. The very informal service is followed by tea and cakes and/or other refreshments. Children can go and hunt for an egg afterwards (most times in the year). There is plenty of parking.
