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 23rd August 2009 the Circuit will hold a Service at Boylestone Parish Hall at 4pm. Full details are avaliable from the Rev John Adams on +44 (0)1283 812265.
