Two services are held each month on the first and third Sundays. Our small congregation is always welcoming to newcomers and visitors. We are fortunate to hold some services in All Saints Church, Alton Priors, (Churches Conservation Trust) but only during July and August. The PCC is responsible for both Churchyards.
Our Worship throughout the last year included, Festival Services, Outdoor Harvest Thanksgiving, Songs of Praise, Remembrance Service, and a Carol Concert to raise much needed funds for St. Mary’s church.

Cash
Cash can still be given at a service if you wish, but don’t dread the plate coming round - if you can support the work of the church great, but if not you’re of course still welcome.
St Mary's - the building
The parish was mentioned in the Domesday Book and its name derives from the Saxon “village by the stream”. The parish contains a long barrow at Adam’s Grave, a section of the Wansdyke and a famous white horse, cut in 1812.
The tiny church is Saxon and was much rebuilt in the 18th century. There is a fine 16th century tie-beamed and windbraced roof, a Georgian gallery and some interesting monuments. There are several stained glass panels, including work of Laurence Whistler.
The canalside hamlet of Honeystreet grew up round the timber and boat yards in the 19th century.
