About Us

The Benefice of Eggardon and Colmers covers the four rural parishes of

Askerswell, Loders, Powerstock and Symondsbury

in the beautiful west Dorset countryside. Its villages, hamlets and farms

are all within a Designation Area of Outstanding Beauty.

Within the four parishes are eight churches,

each with their own unique character and history, serving the community

as well as all the visitors to this picturesque corner of the County.

Stronger together, the Benefice extends a warm welcome to everyone.
