This popular church is signposted on the roads leading up to it. As you enter the grounds there is a small parking area available just off the road in front of the main gate. You should be able to fit two small cars into this space. The surfaces leading up to the main gate are slightly uneven and as you enter the grounds the tarmac is slightly heightened, however, leading up to the main entrance the pathway is flat. As you come to the main entrance there is a very small 1cm step going into the building as well as another 1cm step going into the main hall to be aware of.
Signposted disability toilets are available for use inside the building.
The platform also has a hearing (Induction) Loop to assist visitors with hearing aids fitted with a 'T' switch.
On the outskirts of the Church there is a single gravel pathway leading to the graveyard and community allotments. These are all for public use.
Brief Description:
This church was built from Manx stone in the 1880s and follows the Manx style inside and out. After much prayer the vision for Holy Trinity Church was to create a space of life and community. In more recent years this church has offered its land to the public to be used in a productive way and to allow people to have a holy space in which they can still be in touch with nature.
