We are the Chapel in the Garden, a diverse, open, creative and lively community in Bridport, Dorset.

Bridport United Church came into being in 1971 as a partnership between the Congregational (now United Reformed) and Methodist Churches in the town.

A church has stood here since 1115, at the centre of a cluster of buildings, including manor house, guild house and rectory, all still surviving.

A Saxon church minster was on or near where the church is today first in the 8th century giving 1,200 years of Christian church in this place.

The church was built in 1956.

A small, beautifully kept, and welcoming country church with a fascinating history.

Congregationalists were gathering nearly 275 years ago in Tonbridge, eventually forming a church.

Fine example of early medieval church restored by Hussey in 19th century following a disastrous fire.
