Forest Parish Church
Our aims and objectives
Anglican Parish church of the Forest
The Forest Church stands on the high plateau of the south of the island. The cluster of houses known as Le Bourg probably grew up around the church ratl1er than the church being built to serve an existing village. The first part to be built was the southeast corner and incorporates massive stones that were once part of a dohnen.
The church itself consists essentially of two parts; a 13'” century nave, central tower with spire and chancel, and a fifteenth century north aisle. The simple arcading which divides the interior of the church is thought to be constructed of Chausey Island stone which, being softer than the granite, was capable of being carved.
