We now worship in a lovely building in Ashbourne!
We display a banner or notice outside before each service, so you know you're in the right place.

Front entrance: on your right, going uphill on Buxton Rd, towards Buxton.
Back entrance: from Auction Close walk around the first building, on the church garden path.
Wheelchair Access: dropped kerb and ramp at both gates, but use the back door to avoid steps into the building. The easiest access is from Cattle Market car park behind the church, with easier parking and a more gentle slope.
There's no hearing loop, but excellent amplification and acoustics. (Please tell us if you are having difficulty hearing during the service.)
The church is easy to find. As you go up-hill on the Buxton Rd., it's on your right.
Alternatively, the rear entrance is directly opposite the Cattle Market Car Park on Auction Close.
