http://www.weobleyandstaunton.org

We offer services every Sunday at 10.30am. On the first Sunday we hold Morning Praise and a communion service on the other Sundays of the month. Our worship is well supported by two excellent organists and a group of enthusiastic singers. We also celebrate festival services and social events in conjunction with our Methodist and Roman Catholic friends through Weobley Churches Together. Our Grade 1 listed church, with its unique stonework, large windows and towering steeple, dates back to the 12th century and attracts many visitors. We are fortunate to have the support of The Friends of Weobley Church, who help us in raising funds to maintain the fabric of the church.

The tall 14th century tower is the only spire in the country to be supported by little flying buttresses connected to pinnacles rising from the tower. The south doorway is Norman with zigzag decoration and the chancel and south transept are late 13th century. The five bay arcades with octagonal piers and ballflower, the clerestory, the north transept and the image recess south of the chancel green are 14th century. There are some fine 15th century figures of little angels in the tracery of the north window.
