Hockworthy Fete June 2026 was held at Coopers Ridge in Staple Cross with thanks to the Maltby family and all the helpers to support this lovely afternoon. The sun was out, the BBQ was was on, cakes donated, raffle tickets sold, skittles being played and many more games for the children. An afternoon out listening to music and meeting friends all in support of raising funds for St Simon & St Jude's Church of Hockworthy.
About usHockworthy is a tranquil rural village and the parish includes the hamlets of Staple Cross and Waterslade. It covers a large area but with a population of only 174. Hockworthy is a very vibrant, active and sociable community with a strong sense of its own identity, the local pub at Staple Cross being a hub for the village. The village hall, which was originally the school, has close connections with the church and hosts frequent musical, church and other events. The ChurchAll are warmly welcomed into the church which has a traditional but slightly quirky mix - we love traditional services and hymns but are more than happy to have a service in a cowshed before the Dog Show. The church is strongly supported by at least 15 families in the parish who are actively involved in various church-related activities.
