Saint Augustine’s Church, Snave, Ashford, Kent.
A Sung Mass (“Missa Cantata”) will be Celebrated here on
Saturday, 23 September 2023, 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.
