Are you our next priest?

We are looking for a new priest to come and be the spiritual leader in what will be a new benefice.  The Benefice of the Upper Nadder is a group of 7 rural parishes in the north of the beautiful Cranborne Chase and West Wiltshire Downs Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The River Nadder flows through the area towards the city of Salisbury to the east, about 15 miles away.  

We are seeking a new incumbent to help us develop our vision and mission in this wonderful place.

We hope for a priest who:

• is a warm-hearted and positive leader.
• can tend to the spiritual needs of all generations.
• is confident across the range of Anglican liturgical traditions.
• will be a visible presence among our parishes.
• will work closely with our three church primary schools.
• will discern and enable gifts and vocation of others.

We offer a supportive ministry team and committed Parochial church councils, with a lovely rectory and home situated in Tisbury, the largest village in the area. There is a railway station on the London Waterloo to Exeter main line, well-run primary schools and good access to secondary education.
