St Barnabas. Brampton Bryan

St. Barnabas. The present church is unusual in that built in 1656, it was one of only six churches built during the period of the Commonwealth. It replaces an earlier building that was destroyed during the siege of Brampton Bryan castle in 1643.

The breadth of the church is all out of proportion to its length. Its nave and chancel are one, all covered by a very fine double hammerbeam roof. The church contains one early 14th century monument to Lady Margaret de Brampton, shown holding her heart in her hands.

Services in St. Barnabas are Book of Common Prayer.
Matins (sung) and Holy Communion.
