Farmoor is a rural community next to the reservoir. St Mary’s began with outdoor services held in July 1935. The simple wooden building that served as a church for over sixty years was replaced by a permanent structure in 1997. The church was rededicated by the Bishop of Reading on March 29th 1998.

We meet monthly on the fourth Sunday afternoon of the month at 3:30pm for Hymns & Cake, an informal café-style service. It lasts about an hour.
