Brill Church Choir

MusicWe are a four part choir of up to 15 singers. We sing at the Holy Communion service on the 1st Sunday of the month in Brill church, and this is often preceded by a practice on the last Tuesday of the month at 6:30pm and then 9:30am on the day. We also get together a slightly fuller choir for Easter and for the occasional Evensong. We have a much larger choir for the Christmas Carol Service, which takes place on the last Sunday before Christmas.

Anyone interested in joining us (there is NO audition), please call (01844) 237 595 or contact us.

The building

Since Norman times villagers have worshipped God on this spot, and perhaps even before that, as there was a village here in Saxon times, mentioned in the Doomsday Book as Ciltone. All traces of the Norman church have disappeared except for some stones in the northern wall of the nave and a fragment of 12th century work over the doorway in the south transept.

Chilton church is unusually interesting on account of the curious development of its plan, and because there are examples of all the main architectural styles of Mediaeval times.
