Churches in Colwall Parish

Colwall: St James the Great

St James Church, Mill Lane Colwall, Malvern
(01684) 540 330
http://colwallchurch.org

St James the Great is the Colwall parish church, but lies about a mile outside the centre of the village. It is used for most of our services.

We also have St Crispin's, a small chapel in the south-east corner of the Colwall Village Hall. Before Covid-19 it was used for our winter early service and for some services with small congregations. It is too small to allow social distancing, so is not currently in use.
