Epworth • St Andrew

St Andrew’s is Grade I listed, parts of which date back to the 12th century. It is best known for Samuel Wesley, rector from 1695 to 1735. His sons John and Charles were born and brought up in Epworth. Epworth is therefore seen as the birthplace of Methodism. Samuel is buried in the churchyard. 

We will be holding an exhibition and serving refreshments. There are various architectural features in the church, the north and south aisles are the earliest surviving.
