Winterbourne Parish Church

Heritage Open Day: A church built in the 12th century has seen many everyday people as well as gentry pass through its doors. Evidence is all around of the mark they have left on the church and churchyard. Who built the church? Who has cared for it over the centuries? Butcher, baker, candlestick maker! From these, Winterbourne parish church can only offer you a tombstone for a baker, but explore the churchyard and you’ll find a salt refiner, feltmakers, and a coach master. There are tombstones from the 17th century to the present day. Who else can you find? Come inside the church and wonder at how many ordinary people have sat in the pews, prayed, listened to sermons, sung hymns or just enjoyed being there.
