The Church of England in Wantage, Charlton and Kingsgrove
Welcome to the website of Wantage Parish
the Church of England serving the community of Wantage.
There are two churches in the parish: the medieval Parish Church of St Peter & St Paul, near the market place, and Holy Trinity Charlton which was built in the nineteenth century to serve what was then a new part of town. There is a service somewhere in the parish every day, and the Parish Church is open 10am - 12 noon daily.
For details of regular services, what to expect, and practical information for your visit, please see the Worship page. For this week's schedule of services and events, please see Services this Week. Or sign up below for email updates.
