St Stephen's Ashill

St Stephen’s Church, Ashill

Ashill is a small, friendly village which lies 1.5 miles from Uffculme.  In 1882 the simple but attractive chapel of St Stephen’s was built to serve the people of Ashill, yet remains part of the parish of St Mary Uffculme.  St Stephen’s is also one of the churches within the Culm Valley Mission Community.  We are a warm and friendly congregation, and newcomers are always welcome.
