Welcome to St Peter's. This ancient parish church has welcomed people for over 1,200 years and today serves the people of Stocksfield, Bywell, Broomley, New Ridley and Apperley.
St Peter's is generally used for a Holy Communion service on the first Sunday of each month at 9.30, on the third Sunday for a reflective Service of the Word and is also used for a late afternoon Evening or other special service on the afternoon of the second Sunday of each month.
St Peter's is our largest capacity church building so is also used for many church festivals, special events such as concerts, and celebrations.
Please check the calendar on this site for details of upcoming Services and Events.
