We are part of the Ewyas Harold Group of churches in south-west Herefordshire, almost equidistant between Hereford and Abergavenny. Along with the Baptist and Methodist Chapels, we belong to Churches Together in Ewyas Harold.
Our priest, Mark, works with four colleagues among the thirty parishes that make up Abbeydore Deanery - from Cusop near Hay, to Kilpeck in the east; from Clehonger near Hereford to Longtown and Craswall in the shadow of the Black Mountains. We are part of the Diocese of Hereford (hereford.anglican.org)
