Our Churches

St Mary’s, Wargrave is situated on its medieval site, overlooking Mill Green which hosts many village events. The church is in an excellent state of repair and has the benefit of the Church Centre.

St Peter’s, Knowl Hill is located in the village beside the busy A4/Bath Road. It dates from Victorian times, built in 1840, and its original Parish was created partly out of Wargrave and partly out of the Hurley Parishes.

St Paul's, Warren Row is a Mission Church in the hamlet of Warren Row and is the smallest of the three churches in the Parish. It is known informally as the ‘Tin Tabernacle’ holding one service a month.
