About Britford
The ancient village of Britford (pop 560) is 1 mile south of Salisbury, with beautiful views of the Cathedral from the water meadows. It is a small community with no shop, but proud of a very successful cafe with delicious homemade food. Longford castle is at the southern end of the village, there is a fish farm and two other farms and for centuries the sheep fair was held in Britford.
Longford C of E Primary school serves children from the surrounding area. There are a few families in Britford with children but most of the residents are retired.
Services
1st Sunday of the month - 9.30am Parish Communion (CW)
Trinitea
Parishioners and passers- by alike enjoyed a glorious afternoon and delicious cream tea in the grounds of St Peter's church Britford on Sunday afternoon. The threefold combination of scone, cream and jam was one way of marking Trinity Sunday and the beautiful location, perfect weather and a fabulous team of helpers made it a joyful way to raise a few pounds for the church and Morning Star. Thanks to all who came and all who helped.
