All Saints’ Church
All Saints’ Church is situated in the centre of the village and is accessed along an avenue of lime trees. Along with St Helen’s Clifford Chambers, it joins with Holy Trinity in town to form the Parish of Stratford Upon Avon.
Our small Victorian village church, filled with beautiful stained glass, replaced an earlier church which stood close to the footpath that leads to Dodwell in the north east corner of the Village Green and may have been the place where William Shakespeare and Anne Hathaway married.
Services of Holy Communion are held at 9:30am each Sunday led by stipendiary and retired clergy and lay people and followed by coffee. Where there is a fifth Sunday in the month we hold an Evensong service at 3:30pm October – March and 6:30pm April – September.

Shakespeare’s Church – Holy Trinity, Stratford-upon-Avon
Holy Trinity, Stratford, on the banks of the River Avon, is probably England’s most visited Parish Church and home to the grave of William Shakespeare stratford-upon-avon.org
A very warm welcome is extended to anyone who wishes to join us for our services and any of our organised events. The church is presently open each day during main daylight hours for visitors and private prayer.
