Welcome to the Church of St Edmund.  It is open for private prayer all day, every day, unless there is a funeral or wedding. All are welcome to this ancient space where people have prayed for centuries, take a slow walk round the church or simply sit for a while.

The Churches of Peak Five welcome all to worship, irrespective of age or faith commitments. There are normally at least two services every Sunday somewhere within our benefice including a communion service at 11:15. If you can't see showing here the Sunday service or event for which you are looking, click on the arrow in the purple 'Our Benefice' box. The 'Services and Events' page there will show all services and events within the Benefice. 

The church dates back to the 14th century but was very heavily restored in the 19th centuryThe two most impressive features of the church are its 16th century screens and the alabaster Beresford tomb. The Beresford family have a service every year, and meanwhile we welcome many Beresfords from all over the world, week to week. Just have a look at the visitors' book!
