The Church of St. Margaret, South
Wonston
There has been a church of St.
Margaret's in the village since 1909, but having outgrown the
original one, we moved into a new church in 1996. This was
built in a partnership with Hampshire Education Authority, so that
the facilities could be shared with South Wonston School
and used throughout the week. We also have a small chapel.
Having been founded as part of the
parish of Wonston, we became a parish in our own right on 1st
January 2007.
We have a branch of the Mother’s Union which
normally meets on the 2nd Tuesday of the month at 2pm in
church. We have a small choir who rehearse on Wednesday
evenings at 7.30pm. The Friends of St. Margaret’s organise
regular fundraising and social occasions – please see Forthcoming
Events for details.
The parishes of South Wonston, Barton
Stacey and Bullington form the Lower Dever Benefice, part of the
Dever Group Ministry in the Diocese of
Winchester.
