The Methodist Church of Great Britain

Welcome to the Dove Valley Circuit

We are a rural circuit within the Nottingham and Derby District of the Methodist Church of Great Britain. Uttoxeter, an old market town visited by Dr Johnson, Draycott-in-the-Clay and Stubwood churches are in Staffordshire. The remaining churches, Boylestone, Church Broughton, Doveridge, Hatton and Hilton, are situated within Derbyshire. Historically, some of our churches have played a significant role in the development of Primitive Methodism in the early 1800s. Today, in all our churches you will find a warm welcome whether you are attending Sunday worship or a weekday event.

On Sunday 28th March 2010 the Circuit will hold an Accreditation Service for Miss Julie Green at Uttoxeter Methodist Church (High Street) at 4pm.

On Sunday 18th April 2010 the Circuit will hold a Service of Thanksgiving for the Life of Mr Cecil Wilson at Uttoxeter Methodist Church (High Street) at 4pm.
