Yelford, Witney

The Church dates from the thirteenth century, with major rebuilding in fifteenth and nineteenth centuries. It is a Grade II Church. Services are held twice a month, using the Book of Common Prayer. We enjoy traditional forms of worship. Baptisms have averaged one every two years since 1820, and one person has been confirmed in the last three years. Two marriages have taken place in the past nine years. There is no Graveyard, because of the high water table, although interment of ashes is possible.

Yelford is probably the smallest active parish in the Diocese, and claims to have the sixth smallest Parish Church in the country. The ecclesiastical parish boundaries do not include all the houses in the Village, which contains eleven houses with 24 residents, - the majority supports the Church. There are two farms.
