- The village of Walditch lies to the
east of Bridport and south of Bradpole. The hill that divides it from Bothenhampton
protects it from being absorbed into the “Bridport town” but the inexorable
spread of new housing on green field sites, in lower Walditch, is now
within a few hundred yards of the old village.
- The church building has an ancient
foundation dating from 1534, and was rebuilt in 1863. It is a lovely,
peaceful church with a beautiful Churchyard. It has a capacity of
70 and the regular congregation is between 25 and 35.
- Among the regular services , there is a Songs of Praise each month
during the summer months. The Church has many social activities and has
a Thursday Club for children aged 6-11. Between 12 and 16 children attend
each week. The churchyard is part of a Living Churchyard Project.
