Holy Trinity Church, Dartford

We are an open, inclusive, liberal, and catholic Christian community, rooted in the wisdom and mystical tradition of our faith.

We especially value the contribution choral music and thoughtful preaching makes to our worship. The historic church of Holy Trinity (Dartford’s parish church), is situated on the High Street in Dartford, and was built by Bishop Gundulf c.1080, with evidence to suggest that a much earlier church had occupied the site since Saxon times. It is a parish church and falls within the Diocese of Rocheste

r. There is a welcoming church community including all age groups, and as well as regular Sunday worship led by the Choir, there are numerous other services and events throughout the year. The church has an on-site café, which is open from Monday to Saturday, and there are other businesses and communities that generate a hub of activity around and within the church. The church community is led by Vicar, Rev’d Martin Henwood, who is supported by the Rev'd Linda Green, the PCC, a dedicated team of parishioners, the Director of Music, organist and choir.
