Fourth Latin Missa Cantata In This Mediaeval Church Since 1538. Sung Votive Mass Of The Blessed Virgin Mary And Commemoration Of Ember Saturday In September.



Saint Augustine's Church, Snave, Ashford, Kent.
A Latin Missa Cantata will be Celebrated here on Saturday, 22 September 2018, 1200 hrs.
Travel Directions are given, below.
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.
Declared redundant in 1983, Saint Augustine's Church is now entirely maintained by
The Romney Marsh Historic Churches Trust.
