The Blessed Virgin Mary, Brompton Regis

The parish church of the Blessed Virgin Mary is at the heart of the village of Brompton Regis, in the south east corner of the Exmoor National Park. It dates from Norman times and was built by monks from a nearby Cistercian Abbey. Details of its history - including restoration of our historic organ in 2014 and more recently a major repair and conservation project on the 13th c. tower - can be found on the village website, www.bromptonregis.com . We are part of the Dulverton benefice of six churches. The small and very rural church of St Mary Magdalene at Withiel Florey is an associated chapel, governed by the same PCC as Brompton Regis.

St Mary Magdalene, Withiel Florey

The beautiful hamlet of Withiel Florey has only a handful of residents, and yet, each month anywhere from 12 to 25 people gather in this beautiful little church for worship. The church sits in a small plot of land amongst farm buildings and to find it takes perseverance, but you will not be disappointed when you do.

St Nicholas' Church, Brushford

Brushford is a small welcoming village on the edge of the Exmoor National Park. Its residents are a mixture of retirees and young families, with everything in between. St Nicholas' Church sits at one end of the village. A beautiful little country church well known for its side chapel designed and built by Sir Edwin Lutyens, with an effigy of the Honourable Aubrey Herbert made by Cecil de Banqueire (or de Blaquiere) Howard; an American sculptor who worked in Paris. The congregation that gathers here week by week is loyal and devoted to their small yet beautifully formed church.

All Saints' Church, Dulverton

The current church was built in the 19th century on the foundations of a much older building. We are a welcoming and inclusive congregation and look forward to meeting you.

St John the Baptist, Skilgate

The church, dedicated to St John the Baptist has a loyal congregation though off the beaten track it is a wonderful place, once discovered, to sit, pray and think in the silence of the countryside.

The village of Skilgate, set in the Brendon Hills, is a small supportive rural community, and like the other parishes in this benefice, has farming at its heart.

St James Church, Upton

We are a festal church, and have services at Easter, our Patronal, Harvest, Christmas Carols, but are normally open and you are very welcome to visit this lovely place. We also believe that we have the most comfortable pews in the Benefice.
