St Cyriac
A warm welcome awaits you from the congregation of Lacock with Bowden Hill churches. We are a small but growing congregation looking to serve God in our local community. This includes links with our residents, school, the National Trust and the many visitors who come and visit us every year.
Our services are generally informal and easy to follow and understand. We have a broad range of ages attending our church and aim to accomodate all. Our church is popular for weddings and other events and we will look into our records for you if you are interested in family history.
We also allow well behaved dogs and cats in our services so you don’t need to leave your faithful friend at home!
If you are looking for a warm welcome and a warm church come and give us a try. It does not matter if you have never been to church before there is a place for you to join with us and be part of a worshipping community who seek to put love at our centre.
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. John 3:16”
St. Cyriac is one of 2 Churches in a joint parish of Lacock with St Anne's Bowden Hill. It has also recently become a team with St Peter's Church in Chippenham under the Rev Si Dunn
Walk through the doors of St Cyriac’s and you’re not just visiting a church—you’re travelling through time. From Norman stonework to Victorian touches, this remarkable building carries the fingerprints of centuries: Plantagenet, Tudor, Stuart, Georgian and beyond. Look closely and you’ll find clues to the people who shaped this place—those who worshipped here, those who are remembered here, and those whose stories are still waiting to be uncovered.
Explore further and you’ll uncover stories of a lost Tudor tomb, one of England’s earliest Renaissance memorials, and epic tales of naval heroes, scientists—and even traitors. Royal connections thread through the centuries too, with links to Henry VIII, Elizabeth I, Charles I and Charles II, Queen Elizabeth, the Queen Mother. And yes—there’s even a surprising connection to Thomas the Tank Engine!
