The parish, which is the most extensive in the isle, reaches from Ryde in the N. to Ventnor in the S. It is 9 miles by 1½ mile in extent, comprising the townships of Ryde, Ventnor, Wroxall, Winston, and Princelett. The two first are important towns, much frequented in the season for sea-bathing. The village of Christchurch is situated on the small river Brading, and is chiefly agricultural."

You can also perform a more selective search for churches in the area that are recorded in the GENUKI church database. This will also help identify churches in nearby townships and/or parishes. You also have the option to see the location of the churches marked marked on a map.

If you keep this page loaded for a very long time and the database is updated since loading it, the church links above may become stale and may display the wrong church. If this happens, reloading this page will correct them.
