Buckland Newton: The Holy Rood

People have worshipped at a church on this site since at least the 13th Century, when the earliest part of the current church was built. Countless generations have used this place for baptisms, weddings, funerals and in their daily service, worship and prayer.

Over the years, each generation has left their mark on the church, with additions in the 15th Century and major restoration works in the 19th and 20th Centuries, culminating in recent work to renovate the organ and place it on a gallery in the west end of the nave.
