With its origins in the 13th century, our church has been at the centre of parish life for generations and remains a focal point in the 21st century, bringing people together, caring for the community and marking significant events in both individual and national life.
During the current lockdown, services of communal worship may continue in church but are restricted and strictly subject to Covid safeguards. Otherwise, the building remains closed save for private prayer from 10.00 to 12.00 from Monday to Friday.
While we continue to be challenged by the Covid-19 health crisis, the church is maintaining contact with the elderly, the lonely and the vulnerable, and, together with the wider community, is providing help, support and care for our parish. If you or someone you know needs help, please contact Rev’d Gill Still.
Church Services During Covid-19 Pandemic:
Two Eucharistic services are provided on Sundays, one in church at 8.15 am (BCP) and the other, as a live stream on Zoom, at 11.15 am (CW). Members of the public may attend the 8.15 am service in church but will be required strictly to follow current Covid guidance. Participants to the 11.15 am service may join the live stream from 10.45, for which joining details may be obtained from Sue Clement (merryclement@gmail.com) or Derek Nott (dmn707@uwclub.net). The service of Morning Prayer on Wednesdays at 10.00 am (BCP) is temporarily suspended but Gill is hosting a virtual coffee and chat on Zoom at this time.
Vacancy for an Organist & Director of Music:

Our Grade 1 listed church stands at the end of Church Walk - a pretty, cobbled street of medieval houses. Surrounded by the churchyard, it overlooks the Mill Pool and the River Dart in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty within the South Hams. The church is open daily during daylight hours.
