St. Michaels Church, Mere

Scaffolding is down, the church tower looking splendid now.

Latest stage of the tower repairs.

Walk of Witness 2024

Everyone is welcome to join ‘The Way of the Cross’ walk up Castle Hill - tomorrow- Good Friday. We will be leaving the square at 11am.
Please be aware the path is very muddy and slippery in places so wear sensible footwear and maybe take a walking stick if you have one.

Impressive work by the scaffolders in all weathers. Nearly at the top of St Michael’s.

The scaffolding is nearly up for the repairs to the church's pinnacles, pennant and church clock. These works are being undertaken as part of the Tower Stories project.

The promoter sent it to us along with the following comment:
“I'm still having people stop me in the street and tonight in the pub to say how much they enjoyed CarmenCo. It’s a brilliant show”

Looking forward to many more in 2024!

A small selection of photos of the wooden angels located above the nave.

Taking the opportunity while the scaffolding is up in the nave for the woodworm treatment we are taking photos of the wooden angels up on high.

Please note that as from

The church is almost ready for today’s Platinum Jubilee Celebrations.

The flower arrangers have again worked their magic decorating the church for the 10:30 am Harvest Festival service.

St. Michaels Church, Mere updated their business hours.

The Freedom Picnic was a wonderful event that finally went ahead on Monday.

We are sadly saying goodbye to Revd. Carol Green and wish her well in her new role as Team Rector Designate in the Haldon Mission Community.

We were privileged to be joined last night by the Bishop of Ramsbury, Andrew Rumsey, at the Blessing and Dedication Service for the new facilities. The new entrance can also be seen.

Small but perfectly formed installation enabling refreshments on site. Nearly there with all the works, yay!

Latest update to the church improvements. North Porch handrail is in and it's been installed with a shepherd's crook and a lift over mechanism, very clever, and the handles have been fitted to the doors. Looking good...

Here is the link for todays service.
