English Heritage sites near Nailsea Parish
TEMPLE CHURCH
8 miles from Nailsea Parish
The 'leaning tower' and walls of this large late medieval church survived bombing during the Second World War. The graveyard is now a peaceful public garden.
STANTON DREW CIRCLES AND COVE
9 miles from Nailsea Parish
Although this is the third largest complex of prehistoric standing stones in England, the three circles and three-stone ‘cove’ of Stanton Drew in Somerset are surprisingly little known. The Great Circle, 113 metres in diameter, is one of the largest stone circles in the country and has 26 surviving upright stones. Yet recent surveys have revealed that the circles and cove were just part of a much more elaborate and important ritual site than had previously been imagined.
SIR BEVIL GRENVILLE'S MONUMENT
16 miles from Nailsea Parish
Erected to commemorate the heroism of a Royalist commander and his Cornish pikemen at the Battle of Lansdown, 1643, this monument marks the spot where he fell.
MEARE FISH HOUSE
17 miles from Nailsea Parish
The only surviving monastic fishery building in England, this housed the Abbot of Glastonbury's water bailiff and provided facilities for fish-salting and drying.
STONEY LITTLETON LONG BARROW
18 miles from Nailsea Parish
One of the finest accessible examples of a Neolithic chambered tomb, with its multiple burial chambers open to view. Bring a torch and experience the burial chambers at first hand.
OFFA'S DYKE
19 miles from Nailsea Parish
An earthwork roughly following the Welsh/English boundary consisting of a ditch and rampart. Origins shrouded in mystery but possibly built in response to events involving the Princes of Powys.

At Holy Trinity Nailsea we believe passionately that the local Church is the hope of the world. We are therefore committed to building a mission community within which each member is nurtured in the truth of God's word and the power of God's Spirit, and so equipped to bear witness to Christ in a broken world.
We are a family church with members drawn from all sorts of backgrounds and ways of life.
Belonging is never passive. Within the fellowship of the Church we are filled with a passion to be devoted to God, each other and a broken world.
OUR VISION
Our vision is emerging to shape our church life going forward. In effect we have two aims for all our church members:
Growing as Disciples - We believe that God has plans for each one of us - to make us more like Jesus. We want to work together so that we are growing as the disciples our Father wants us to be.
Making a Difference - We believe that Jesus wants us to shine brightly for him in our locality. We want to take opportunities to be a positive influence on those around us, that they too might see Jesus.
We believe that this vision applies to all ages. We want children as much as anyone to be growing as disciples and making a difference to the lives of those around them.
Our prayer is that over the coming weeks and months this vision will take shape and help us focus on where God is leading us as we step out in faith and in our service of him.
