Welcome to the Parish of Postlebury
Our five ancient and beautiful churches to the south-west of Frome in Somerset make up the United Parish of Postlebury. This rural Church of England parish covers the villages and hamlets of Nunney, Wanstrow, Witham Friary, Cloford, Trudoxhill and Marston Bigot – with Postlebury Wood at the centre. Our churches share services and communications – including this website, an Annual Guide to Postlebury, and a monthly Postlebury Churches e-newsletter. We also work together to hold joint social and fundraising events.
Our Sunday services rotate around the parish in a regular pattern. Each village church also hosts services for many of the key festivals such as Christmas, Easter, Mothering Sunday, Harvest and Remembrance Sunday. More information about services can be found here
We work closely with, and share our vicar, with the nearby parishes of Leigh-upon-Mendip with Downhead and Stoke St Michael. The parishes are in vacancy currently, following the retirement of the vicar. We are hoping to make an appointment in early 2025. In the meantime, the parish office has been relocated in Nunney temporarily as the Rectory is refurbished, and all services are being covered by local and retired clergy. The parish office can be contacted on 07404 824355.
The Parish of Postlebury sits in the Frome Deanery in the Diocese of Bath and Wells.
