Holy Trinity Church, Winchester


Holy Trinity Church, Winchester is a Church of England parish church in Winchester, in Hampshire, England.

History

Holy Trinity is a Commissioners' church, one of many built with money voted by Parliament as a result of the Church Building Acts of 1818 and 1824. The Second Parliamentary Grant, provided by the Church Building Act 1824, gave £300 towards the building of Holy Trinity Church. It was designed by Henry Woodyer in a neo-Gothic style.
Work began in February 1852, and the building was opened and consecrated in July 1854. It was built on a plot named Whitebread Mead.
On 14 January 1974, the church was designated a grade II* listed building.

Present day

Holy Trinity Church stands in the Catholic tradition of the Church of England. The parish has passed resolutions to reject the ordination of women, and is a member of Forward in Faith and The Society. The parish receives alternative episcopal oversight from the Bishop of Richborough.
Since the summer of 2023, Rev. Jamie Franklin has served as the Parish Priest. He is also an author, as well as the host of the podcast Irreverend: Faith and Current Affairs.
Sunday Mass takes place each Sunday at 10:30am.
