The church stands above the village of Winwick on raised ground, welcoming all who pass through.
There is evidence that Christianity has been practiced on the site for over 1,000 years. Winwick is mentioned in the Domesday Book and the church is an integral part of the area's history and community.
Pre-pandemic, our Church was closed after extensive restoration work was needed after damage caused by the death watch beetle. You can read about the work our restoration page. Now that the Covid restrictions are over, the clubs and groups that use our Church hall are back up and running so now might be the time to find a new hobby! You can that information here.
Feel free to look around the site to learn more about the church's history, to discover how to book a baptism, wedding or funeral, or to find out when our services are held. We are also very happy to help with family history enquiries and are proud of the links we have with families in many countries.
Whatever your reason for visiting St Oswald's Church, Winwick, you can be sure of a warm welcome!
