In the centre of the village stands the church, dedicated to St
Gregory.
More than 300 years ago, there was a second church in the
village, St Martin’s, but its two bells were sold in 1682 and St
Gegory was made the sole church. It is a simple but beautiful
church where residents of the village and beyond meet up for
regular services, conducted by Rev Sue Nutt.
Part of the Blackbourne Ministry, services are friendly and
inclusive. Children of any age are welcome to attend services but
may find the family service particularly accessible, aimed as it is
at youngsters. The family service is held on the first Sunday in
each month. In addition, a regular mid week pram service is also
held, catering to babies and toddlers.
The Candle-lit Christmas Carol Service is particularly
beautiful, at which a locally grown choir assists.
At present, St Gregory's is attempting to raise money to install
a kitchen, and toilet facilities. Anyone wishing to help us in our
fundraising efforts, or to make a donation, please contact Revd Sue
Nutt on 01842
