The Congregation of St Marks warmly welcome you to join them for a visit or for worship. St Mark's is set in a rural village and the church reflects this. As you drive through Hadlow Down on the A272 you cannot fail to see this stunning church. The churchyard participates in the national natural churchyard scheme, therefore there is much wildlife to be found around the outside of the church.
