Saint Augustine's Church,
Snave, Ashford, Kent.
It is possible that a small private Chapel stood on this site before the present building was commenced in the Late-13th-Century. The East End is unusual in that The Lady Chapel
(more recently used as a school room) vies for importance with The Chancel.

Saturday, 24 September 2016 (Feast of Our Lady of Ransom) at 12 noon.
Last year (2015) was the first time Mass had been Celebrated in the Church since Reformation times. We are delighted to be able to return this year. The Celebrant will be Fr Marcus Holden (Rector of The Shrine of Saint Augustine, Ramsgate) and music will be supplied by The Victoria Consort.
