Background
St Mary's church dates from about 1150, and is the largest and most historic church in Langley. It benefited greatly from the expansion work of the
Kedermister family in the 17th Century, which gave the church a tower and bells and also a unique library, which has not been changed since. The church is open to visitors interested in its history on the afternoon of the first Sunday in each summer month. The church is situated opposite the Red Lion pub on St Mary's Road. |

Services
The worship life of the church centres around the Parish Communion service at 11.00am each Sunday, which is enhanced by one of the few robed choirs in the area. There is also a traditional Book of Common Prayer communion at 8am each Sunday.
On the first and third Wednesday of each month (except August) there is a Toddler
Service
