St George’s Church

St George’s Church in Crowhurst stands prominently on a hillside, its impressive tower a notable feature of the local skyline. The church has a rich history dating back over a thousand years, with the earliest records of the site going as far back as 772 AD. It holds historical significance, including a connection to King Harold, the last Saxon king. Today, St George’s remains a central part of village life, hosting a variety of social events such as a popular Friday coffee shop that serves as a community meeting place. The church also supports charitable causes, including recent donations to a college in Papua New Guinea. St George’s welcomes all to its worship services and offers life events such as weddings, baptisms, and funerals. It maintains a strong commitment to safeguarding children, young people, and vulnerable adults, with policies regularly reviewed and publicly available. The parish room is available for bookings, and the church actively engages with families through relaxed children’s groups.
