St. Augustine parish church is located in Summers Street, off Rodbourne Road, Even Swindon.   Visit their own website at:   St. Augustine   for details about the church, its work, photographs, history and contact details.   A history book is also available to buy for about five pounds (extra for overseas postage).

We received a very warm welcome despite the preparations going on for a social gathering later that evening.   Thank You for taking the time to make us welcome and telling us about your church.

Photographing the church building was very frustrating.   Despite all the lighting being turned on it was still very dark inside.   The dark brick walls absorbed what light there was and the flash on our camera was not powerful enough to light up the large inside space.   We were told everyone has this problem.   Many of our photographs are dark; we used the low-light setting on the camera for a few shots, but where as it lightened the image, the detail of the photograph deteriorated. Excuses for poor quality made, we hope you enjoy seeing our photographs.
