Welcome to St Swithun's!
We are a church family who gather to worship and serve God in the beautiful village of Bathford on the east side of the City of Bath in the UK. We offer you a warm welcome to browse our site or to join us at any of our services or activities.
St. Swithun's exists to enable people to explore the Christian claims for themselves in their own way and to respond to God appropriately. As such we provide a variety of different styles of service as well as small groups both for children and adults. We also pray each week for the life of our parish and the wider community. The church is always open during the week (apart from school holidays) should you wish to visit us and just spend a few moments in peace and quiet.
To find out more about us and/or what we get up to just click on one of the categories on the left, type something into the search box or browse though our latest news items below.
