This beautiful, old church is in the middle of the village, it is surrounded by its own churchyard, with both ancient and more recent headstones.  The Eucharist (Holy Communion), is central to our worship, although we offer a less formal service on the first Sunday, which is non-Eucharist.  Most of our worship is according to the Book of Common Worship, but on the first Sunday, a Service of Holy Communion in accordance with the Book of Common Prayer (1662) is held at 8 am.

We are fortunate to have the services of an excellent organist who is also choirmaster.  He is always willing to advise wedding couples on music for their services.
