All Saints, Turkdean is open daily between 9am and 5pm (or dusk if earlier in Winter) for everyone to enjoy this beautiful and peaceful 12th Century Norman church which serves our small rural Parish of just some 60 souls in the heart of the rolling Cotswold countryside.

A traditional BCP service of Matins with Holy Communion is held at 10:30am on the second Sunday every month with the invaluable support of the Turkdean Choir.

More ambitious occasional choral services including Monteverdi's Messa a quattro voci (SV190), Palestrina's Missa æterna Christi munera, Byrd's Short Service and Mass for Four Voices (1592) are staged twice each year and fill the Church to overflowing.

A new and highly efficient infra-red heating system was successfully installed in the Nave and welcomed with a glorious Choral Evensong in November 2024, led by the ever-ebullient Revd Nick Scott and with the Turkdean Choir under the direction of Dominic Hamilton and with the assistance of Steve Winwood and Theo Mountford on the organ. The new heating system allows us to heat our congregation without having to heat the significant surrounding volume, producing both warmer congregants while making a significant contribution to the Church's NetZero energy targets.

The church bells were dismounted for restoration in March 2023 and, following their repair, rehung on a strengthened bell-frame in August 2023. The bells now ring out in full voice once again for the first time for 70 years.
