The practical stuff...
The 900 year-old building is wheelchair, buggy, children and dog friendly, and although the church hasn't got a carpark, you're welcome to use the Village Hall carpark just next door. Fortunately we have got a modern extension with a large airy meeting room, a toilet and basic kitchen facilities.

Services
Everyone, and we mean everyone, is very welcome; it’s quite relaxed and no-one will put any pressure on you to do or say anything. A service booklet has everything printed inside so you'll know what to do when - it's completely up to you how much you join in with. And if you need to leave or get a breath of fresh air during the service, no-one will mind in the slightest.

Grade 1 listed
Westerfield Church is Grade I listed by English Heritage for the following reasons:

> The 15th century hammerbeam roof is exceptionally fine in quality and craftsmanship and includes intact carved demi-figures on the hammerbeams and corbels
> There is an intricately carved late medieval font
> The interior fixtures and fittings include 19th century stained glass by Morris and Co., and Powells, and 20th century furniture by H. Munro Cautley.

There was a church here when the Domesday Survey was carried out and parts of the building date from the Norman period. A church room extension was added in 1987.
