There has probably been a place of worship on the top of the hill by the Heavitree Yew for over a thousand years. The certain record of priests serving there goes back into the 13th century. But most of the present building dates back to 1829 when the church was extensively rebuilt. It has a high ceiling, ornate stone carving and many fine examples of stained glass. It suits both formal and informal worship. Click here for service times Click here to view more history of St Michael's Click here to view information on the Friends of Heavitree Church
