The Next 200 Years

The Parish Church of St John the Baptist occupies a prime town centre site where churches have stood since the twelfth century. The 200th anniversary of the current building was celebrated in 2022. A civic church for the Royal Borough of Windsor & Maidenhead, the church is open daily and is widely used by the church congregation, by community groups, schools and by many visitors, both local and from all over the world.

The Parochial Church Council has set up a committee to lead the restoration and development of the church and grounds, including representatives from the church congregation and more widely across the community. The recent Quinquennial survey (a five yearly inspection of the church by its architect which churches are required to have) lists what needs to be done in terms of addressing the immediate fabric defaults, but we have the opportunity within this project to take a broader, long-term view. We are privileged to have a prime, central Windsor location. We have a facility with wonderful acoustics and a high capacity to hold events for our community. We have the opportunity to create and develop a valuable space, fit for purpose for Christian worship, the wider local community and visitors alike.
