A Hidden English Gem

Edington’s majestic Priory church towers over this enchanting little village, tucked beneath the escarpment on the edge of Salisbury Plain. Built in the 14th century by former Bishop of Winchester William of Edington, the Grade I listed building is now Wiltshire’s only perfect monastic church. Since 1956, supporters from far and wide have been helping local people to restore, maintain and improve this remarkable building.

CHURCH HISTORY

The Spring is Sprung!

Isn’t it great to see the sun emerging from behind all those grey skies, to hear the birds sing and generally feel that the year is opening up?   And now, of course, we are looking forward to Easter.

Please visit us if you are passing – the church is always open from dawn to dusk.   It is a lovely place to explore or just sit and contemplate.

Services continue as usual, so please go to our What’s On page for the links.

Edington Arts have announced their programme for the year and there is more information about that on our What’s On page too.

And then, of course, there is the Festival which will take place during the week before the August Bank Holiday though dates, theme and music have yet to be confirmed.
