St. Margaret's is the historic Parish and Civic Church of Lowestoft. Christians have worshipped on this site for over 1100 years.
Founded by the Priory of St. Bartholomew in London, which was granted the Manor of Lowestoft in 1230 by Henry I, the church is a magnificent and beautiful Grade I listed medieval building. Its iconic illuminated blue spire, which can be seen across the town, is a visible symbol of God's love for us all.
We are a friendly, thriving and welcoming congregation, and seek to meet people wherever they are on life's journey; whether you wish to join us for worship, explore faith or simply seek a tranquil space for prayer or reflection.
