"This is such a welcoming church!" Yes, it is - we welcome visitors and locals alike to our services, events, as well as to our beautiful Church which is open every day (give the door a good shove). If you time it right, you'll find yourself in a packed special service with a pony (or some sheep!). We have a service here every Sunday at 9.30am, and are a good base to begin a walk (or swim) on the moor, adjacent to Belstone Tor and with views over Cosdon Beacon.
Please do contact Ruth Cartlidge, our administrator, on [email protected] or call 07551 655424 or 01837 53364 for more information, or with enquiries about any matters including baptisms and weddings and Funerals. All are welcome.
