St Mary's, Stottesdon, in the Stottesdon Benefice: St Mary's may seem a surprisingly big church for a small village, reflecting its history as being the centre of the Mediaeval Stottesdon Hundred. St Mary's is distinguished by its beautiful Hereford School carved stone font, and its earlier tympanum. A major restoration completed in 2024 (with National Lottery funding) included new heritage interpretation so that everyone can learn about this thousand-year old treasure at the heart of our community.

Silvington: St Michael
St Michael's, Silvington, in the Stottesdon Group of Churches
This is the ultimate country church: small, ancient and at the heart of its community surrounded by farm buildings! It serves a tiny parish but is actively used - not just for regular Sunday services, but for special occasions for the community as well. As it has been for the last eight hundred years or so.
