Holy Trinity Church, Winchester is a Church of England parish church in Winchester, in Hampshire, England.

History

Holy Trinity is a Commissioners' church, one of many built with money voted by Parliament as a result of the Church Building Acts of 1818 and 1824. The Second Parliamentary Grant, provided by the Church Building Act 1824, gave £300 towards the building of Holy Trinity Church.[2]

On 14 January 1974, the church was designated a grade II* listed building.[3]

Present day

Holy Trinity Church stands in the Catholic tradition of the Church of England.[4] The parish has passed resolutions to reject the ordination of women, and is a member of Forward in Faith and The Society.[5] The parish receives alternative episcopal oversight from the Bishop of Richborough (currently Norman Banks).[6]
