Dating from the 1800’s with later extensions, the accommodation, which is arranged over three floors boasts enormous charm and character, with elegant proportions. Classic Georgian sash windows with original wooden shutters fill the principal rooms with light, while the conversion of an adjoining barn hosts an impressive vaulted kitchen. Fireplaces in the reception rooms with the addition of a charming garden room off the drawing room incorporates the exquisite rose garden into the living space and makes this a wonderful house to entertain in and enjoy more informally all year round. Upstairs two generous bedroom suites and a third double bedroom with cloakroom, occupy the first floor with further rooms on the second floor offering scope to remodel, subject to necessary planning consents. One of the most impressive features of this property are the mature gardens and grounds amounting to 3.28 acres, unusual for a house located in the heart of the village. Privacy can therefore be appreciated, while still being part of a community with easy access to amenities including a popular pub and views over surrounding countryside with glorious walking from the doorstep.

    South Cotswolds Team Ministry in the Diocese of Gloucester PARISH PROFILE FOR THE PARISH OF COLN ST ALDWYNS, HATHEROP AND QUENINGTON in the South Cotswolds Team Ministry Cirencester Deanery the Diocese of Gloucester ___________________________________________________________________________ Parish Profile for Coln St Aldwyns, Hatherop and Quenington Welcome Thank you for taking an interest in this post in the South Cotswolds Team Ministry, caring for the communities of Coln St Aldwyns, Hatherop and Quenington as a House for Duty Priest. You will find an able and enthusiastic PCC and good supportive people with whom to work. The South Cotswolds Team comprises some 15 parishes and 22 churches stretching from Ampney Crucis, near Cirencester in the west to Lechlade in the east; and from Castle Eaton in the south to Winson in the north. We have four stipendiary clergy and two house-for- duty clergy; two SSM priest colleagues, a number of Readers and supportive retired clergy colleagues. We also have a full-time Youth Worker. We are working hard on what it means to be a ‘Team’ across a large area – the South Cotswolds - and how we use our skills, gifts and opportunities together in building the kingdom of God here in this place. The good news is that members of the Team get on really well together and we enjoy working with each other! We believe in supporting each other and having fun – along with all the other things we have to do. You will be a key member of our Team. We are looking for someone who is willing to be a visible presence in the communities across the CHQ parish and draw them together, as seems most appropriate locally; and use the skills and talents of local people.

We look forward to welcoming you in person at one of the village coffee mornings which are held in the Village Hall on the second Saturday of each month at 1030. 1 Welcome To Quenington Brief History of the Village Quenington is situated in the attractive Coln Valley some nine miles east of Cirencester and eighteen miles north of Swindon, twenty-six miles from Oxford and twenty miles from Cheltenham. The village, mentioned in the Domesday Book, has important medieval remains. The richly carved north and south doorways of St Swithin's Church possibly date back to 1140, or even earlier, and the gateways, near the church, are the site of the Preceptory of the Knights Hospitaller. The land was given by the de Lacey family to the Order in c.1190's. The part of the village that lies along the river Coln, a tributary of the Thames, is adjacent to an area designated as being of outstanding natural beauty. Over half the village is in a conservation area and there are many attractive walks in the vicinity. Today the village has some 600 inhabitants and about 250 dwellings. St Swithins Church The Benefice, of which Quenington is a part, is known locally as CHQ, namely Coln St Aldwyns, Hatherop and Quenington. St Swithin’s Church has services each Sunday, details of all services are published in the CHEQS Parish Magazine and you will be very welcome to any service.
