Watercombe Benefice

We are a group of five Church of England churches in Broadmayne, West Knighton, Owermoigne, Warmwell and Holworth and also worship with our friends in Broadmayne Methodist Church.  There are usually two services each Sunday morning across the benefice at 9.30am and 11am with occasional 8am and 6pm services too.  

All are welcome in our churches and please contact the Rector, Rev David Johnson at [email protected] for any enquiries about services, weddings, baptisms, funerals or help in general relating to our churches.
