The church is set in a leafy one-way system, connecting the high street to the Harbour. It is adjacent to the local library (former school-house of the village) and heritage centre. The village war memorial is a short walk up the hill.
History
The church was built in 1845 and 1846.[1]
The first church in Bembridge was built in 1827, but was replaced due to instability by the current building.
Organ
The church has a pipe organ dating from 1884 by Forster and Andrews. A specification of the organ can be found on the National Pipe Organ Register

gollark: I think that I will simply not do that, and leave it running for as long as my laptop is on, and then wait for the inevitable nightly backup process to restart the rsyncing anyway.
gollark: It occupies a full 0.5p of storage, by my 2p/GB metric.
gollark: Wow, Grafana is 241MB?
gollark: rsync is probably maybe resumable later anyway. But still.
