Parish Church West Moors

In 1896 the present church building was built and was blessed and dedicated as Saint Mary the Virgin on 9th December 1897 (but not consecrated) by the then Bishop of Salisbury. In March 2010 work began on the new building on the other side of the church which is the new church hall which replaced the old 1970's structure with its very leaky flat roof. The new hall was opened and dedicated by The Archdeacon of Sherborne, The Venerable Paul Taylor on Saturday 16th October 2010. This far more substantial building provides the parish with much needed modern facilities of kitchen, toilets, storage and a considerably larger hall.
