About St Nicholas, Oldbury

The church of St Nicholas is situated in Oldbury, a small village on the western outskirts of Bridgnorth. Oldbury is an ancient parish with records going back to the Domesday Book.

Originally a daughter church of Morville, it became independent after the dissolution of Shrewsbury Abbey. In 1948 it joined with St Mary Magdalene, Bridgnorth. There has been a church on the site since the twelth century (first recorded 1138).

Largely the product of a Victorian restoration, it is a small, attractive church, with limited kitchen facilities added in 1993.

Parking facilities and an open yet cosy most attractive historic interior provide for wonderful weddings. Oldbury's WI Hall is a 5 minute walk away, available for hire - call Mrs Rennie on 764454.

St Nicholas now serves the neighbouring Eardington, where an Honorary Assistant Priest also leads seasonal activities and services in the village hall.

All services include hymns. The church is fortunate to have services of an excellent organist, who also leads the Oldbury and Quatford Choir.
