St Mary's Church
For over a thousand years, St Mary's has been a place where those living in Streatley and other villages have gathered to praise God and be part of a community, which seeks to live out God's love in their lives. St Mary's Church is available for all people. Some come each week, others on special occasions only. Whatever the pattern of attendance, all belong and are part of the Church family.
St Mary's is a place where generations of villagers have marked significant events in life, such as Easter, Harvest and Christmas; baptisms, weddings and funerals. Through love, dedication and financial commitment, this Church has maintained its place at the heart of the community.
