Welcome to St Botolph in the Parish of Farnborough.
Farnborough is the smallest of the individual parishes within the Dassett Magna Group of Parishes in South Warwickshire. Whether you have been to church before or are coming for the first time, you are assured of a warm welcome!
The church is dedicated to St Botolph, and there has been a worshipping community here since the 13th century. Most of the original architecture has been altered through the centuries, particularly during the 19th when the wide north aisle was built and a spire added to the 14th century tower. The tower has a bell chamber with a peal of six bells rung regularly by ringers from the village of Kineton.
Our monthly pattern of services includes Common worship, modern-language and Book of Common Prayer, traditional-language Communions, and a monthly Prayer Book Evensong.
