The beautiful church of St Wilfrid stands on a site believed to have been first used for a church in the seventh century AD and an ancient church is mentioned in the Domesday survey of 1086.

Today we seek to be welcoming to people of all Christian traditions and to those new to the faith, to be dynamic to grow in the faith and love of Jesus Christ and to be bible based, proclaiming scripture in a relevant way to encourage its application in our daily lives.

We are committed to fellowship – encouraging people to get to know each other better and support fellow members and newcomers, both in practical ways and through prayer;  to family – to care and support all ages, giving dignity, respect and responsibility to all, whilst not forgetting to have fun; to community – to play a key role as a community resource in our town, by supporting those in need and engaging in mission by meeting with people where they are and, further afield – to supporting key charities and agencies nationally and internationally.

St Wilfids church hall is a warm, welcoming building. It has excellent kitchen facilities and can seat, and table, up to 100 people fairly comfortably. It is currently in regular use by various groups, including dance groups who enjoy the solid wooden floor of the main hall. Numerous other church and local community groups enjoy the facilities too. Why not, for example consider a childrens party at the hall, space to play without the risk of damage to your home. There is a second, smaller, and carpeted room ideal for meetings or, if holding a larger function, as an adjunct to the main hall. The hall has close links with a local landlord who is always ready to put on a bar for hall users. Dont forget too the halls small stage, ideal for local amateur productions. Parking is readily available at the church only a few moments walk from the hall. Fees for hiring the hall are extremely reasonable starting at only £25 and rising to £120 dependending upon its use. For enquiries about costs and availability please ring Kate or Philip Hurt on 01623 432803.
