Church Buildings and Churchyards

We have a rich history of church buildings stretching from the Saxons right up to the present day

With nearly 400 churches open for regular worship (over 90% of which are listed buildings), we have architectural projects of all sorts going on every day of the week.

The DAC Secretary, Senior Church Buildings Officer, Assistant Church Buildings Officer and Church Buildings Administrator are available to offer help and advice whenever you need it: contact us.

In addition, the Diocesan Advisory Committee (DAC) meets every 6 to 8 weeks, and its members and consultants are usually available to offer specialist advice on a wide range of topics including bells, organs, clocks, textiles, heating, lighting and stained glass.
