Abbots Bromley, Blithfield, Colton, Colwich and Great Haywood

We are a group of five churches who enjoy sharing and working together, despite the fact that we are geographically and historically distinct communities.  This may may explain why we have yet to think up a catchy title for benefice!  Shugborough Hall and Blithfield reservoir are both within our boundaries and the Grand Union Canal, West Coast main line and the Old London Road all run through our parishes.  Each of our churches has its own identity and approaches to worship (all firmly within the Anglican tradition) and an active  worshipping community who look forward to welcoming you.
