Welcome to the Parish Church of 
St. John the Baptist 
Axbridge

United with St. Leonard, Shipham and
St. Michael and All Angels, Rowberrow.

 

Whether you come to worship, or to enjoy the peace, or to marvel at the beauty of the building, welcome to Axbridge Church.

The 'Access for All' building work has been completed and we now have a walkway to the South Porch and level access to the church.  There is a Service of Dedication with Rt Revd Ruth Worsley, Bishop of Taunton, on Advent Sunday, 1 December at 10am.

 

How to find us

We are in the centre of Axbridge overlooking the north east side of the town square.

The Church Steps
The Square
Axbridge

The Church Rooms are opposite the church entrance, a few steps down from the top of the steps from The Square.  There is level access from the public highway to the Church Rooms but note that the 'highway' in this case is The Church Steps.   
 
Axbridge Church itself is not the easiest to access directly because of the steps that lead up from The Square.  Access without steps is available from Church Lane (off St Mary's Street but this is quite steep), Back Lane and Chestnut Avenue. Entry is through the South Porch using the new 'Access for All' walkway.
 
There is limited 1 hour parking in The Square; note that this is regularly patrolled, including on Sunday.  There are two car parks, in Old Church Road and Moorland Street, signposted from The Square.
