Honiley Church (St John Baptist, Honiley) has a special place in the hearts of so many people - as a place they attended services as children, where they go for the annual Carol Service, where they exchanged marriage vows, or where they have said farewell to loved ones, or simply wandered in for a moment of quiet contemplation. It’s also a place where a handful of local parishioners attend regular (three Sundays in the month) services. Whether it is the side of the church bells ringing out in Joy for celebration of a wedding or the traditional morning and evening recitation, or the thought-provoking words of a sermon, or the ever-changing floral decorations which adorn the windows, or the coloured light flooding in through the beautiful stained-glass windows, commissioned by Lily Wade of Honiley Hall in memory of her late husband Herbert Wade and designed by the stained-glass artist Theodora Salusbury, the church means so much in so many different ways to so many people in our community and beyond.
