The church is a lovely village church, with six bells,
which seeks to serve the local community as a
base not only for a wide range of worship and
pastoral care, but also is used by many
organisations in particular Lympstone School
and for concerts.
There has been a church on this site since the
12th century, with the tower dating to 1409 and
the rest rebuilt in 1864, with more recent
modernisation at the west end.
We are part of the Exmouth Coastal Churches Mission Community of Littleham-cum-Exmouth with Lympstone.
We are under the patronage of the Society for the Maintenance of the Faith.
There is parking available opposite the church on the former nursery site through a pair of five-bar gates.
