Picture of FBCFrindsbury Baptist Church has been serving the local community since it was founded in the 1920s. All through the week our buildings are used for a variety of activities, as this site will show.
But a church is a lot more than a building or a programme of activities. We are a group of ordinary people who have found that God has a place in our lives, and that he has given us hope and purpose for the future.
We are pleased to welcome to our church any who wish to join us. Our aim is to be a caring church, supporting the local people and community.

Prior to moving to our current site, the church met at a windmill in Bill Street Road.

ImageThe site of this mill is within the cleft formed by the junction of Bill Street Road with Powlett Road.

Here was a smock mill, so called because this type was considered to resemble the old-time labourers' smock. In this case the main body of the mill was a fixture- a sloping tower- with only the cap swivelling to bring the sails into the wind.

It was owned for many years by a Mr Kimmins, and drove four pairs of stones.

This mill was demolished in about 1930, having stood derelict for a long period. The Mill House, although having undergone some alterations, yet remains to represent a different age.
