Welcome from the Rector

We offer you a very warm welcome to the Cannings and Redhorn Team.

Our Benefice was formed in 2012 and comprises of All Cannings, Bishop’s Cannings with Etchilhampton, Chirton with Patney, Marden, Urchfont with Stert, and Wilsford, which also include the hamlets of Allington, Bourton, Coate, Conock, Horton and Wedhampton, together with Cannings Hill a fast-developing area adjacent to Devizes.

Our parishes are all situated in the Vale of Pewsey. The Vale is an area of outstanding natural beauty mainly given to open farmland and unspoilt chalk downland which is rich in wildlife, history and archaeology. Our villages and hamlets lie to the east of the attractive market town of Devizes and around 25 miles by road from Salisbury. 

Each of our worshipping communities come together to share in worship and fellowship and a warm welcome awaits you. If you are new to faith and would like to have a chat please feel free to contact us and we will be happy to arrange a time to meet with you. 

Our Calendar holds the times of our services and our news and events page will show what is going on around the Benefice.

You are most welcome to come and pray in any of our churches, or to join us at any of our services.

We look forward to meeting you.

Revd Richard Curtis
