St Andrew's Church - Curry Rivel

We have a strong relationship with St Andrews Church. In addition to frequent visits from Rev'd. Jenny Langdown, we welcome clergy from other denominations such as URC and Baptist to lead our collective worship. Our visits to the church usually include Harvest, Christmas and Easter. There are other occasions when children visit to learn more about their local parish church.

Some History The highest ground around this area is only about 50 metres above sea level so that it was natural that it had been chosen as the site of the Parish Church of St Andrew. It is mentioned in the Domesday survey of 1086 as the site of a Saxon church. While no part of this Saxon church survives, the present church has a surviving North Chapel which had been originally added to the old Saxon part in the 13th Century.
