Church Service All Saints’ Church, Torquay

From the venue

About THIS EVENT IS PART OF THE AGATHA CHRISTIE FRINGE FESTIVAL Join us for a Sunday service in the church where Agatha Christie was baptised Agatha Mary Clarissa Miller on Thursday 20th November 1890. Led by Father Peter March, this is always a popular experience for Festival goers, held in such a significant setting which Agatha describes fondly in her autobiography. After the service, there will be a chance to see the actual marble font where Agatha was baptised. You will be able to sit on the family pew, and explore this beautiful Anglo Catholic Church where her family worshipped. You will also be able to view the blue plaque that was unveiled during last year’s Agatha Christie Festival on 14th September, 2025. Accessibility There are a couple of disabled parking spaces for blue badge holders at the church itself. There is a ramped entrance to the church and an accessible toilet available.
