Welcome!

from the church families at Fewston and Blubberhouses in the beautiful Washburn Valley in North Yorkshire and from the other six churches that form the ecumenical group of Washburn Valley and Mid-Wharfe churches.
 
Our two historic Church of England churches, 3 miles apart at Fewston and Blubberhouses, belong to the Otley Deanery of the Diocese of Bradford. Services are held most Sundays in one of our churches and prayers are said at Timble chapel on the 2nd and 4th Wednesdays. The Washburn Heritage Centre, adjoining Fewston Church, is open every Sunday between 11am and 4.30pm serving refreshments.

We hope that you find what you're looking for on our website and that we'll be able to welcome you in person if you are able to visit our churches.
