Venue
St Mary's
Address
St Mary's, Rectory Hill West Dean, SP5 1JQ

Villagers are warmly invited to join in Remembrance Sunday at West Dean - the Act of Remembrance followed by a service at St Mary's (the sister church of Holy Trinity, East Grimstead).

As there is no war memorial in East Grimstead, the names of the fallen from the village are read out and remembered during the service at St Mary's.

East Grimstead: Holy Trinity

Holy Trinity was built in 1857 on the site of a Saxon church and is a joint parish with St Mary's, West Dean. It is also part of the Clarendon Team of churches which extends westwards to Alderbury, northwards to Winterslow and southwards to Whiteparish. We are in the Diocese of Salisbury.

Our beautiful church nestles on the southern edge of East Grimstead on the corner of Dean Road. It seats c 50 people and is available for weddings, funerals and baptisms.  We would love to welcome you whether you are living or working in the village or just passing by.

Holy Trinity was pulled back from the brink of closure in 2025 and still faces an uncertain future unless funds continue to be raised for repairs and running costs. Please see 'What's On' for further information about the Save Our Church fundraising campaign and events.

We are deeply grateful to all our supporters in the village and further afield for their generous donations and attendance at fundraising events; it is this kindness and community spirit that makes East Grimstead such a special place.  Setting up a regular donation to the Parish Giving Scheme is the most effective way to help sustain Holy Trinity and ensure it stays open for the long-term: https://www.parishgiving.org.uk/donors/find-your-parish/east-grimstead-holy-trinity-east-grimstead. Thank you very much.
