Welcome to the College of St Barnabas

- a residential community of retired Anglican clergy set in idyllic countryside in Lingfield, Surrey, offering welcome security in a time of economic uncertainty.

To read recent news about the College please select one of the scrolling headlines below the picture on the left, or click here for other news or details of forthcoming events.

As you explore the pages about Life at the College you will see the self-contained sheltered flats in the Cloisters where Residents lead active, independent lives for as long as possible, and the facilities in the Nursing Wing. Here we can provide both Residential Care and full Nursing Care for those who need it. We are proud that this enables most Residents to remain members of the College for the rest of their lives. We also offer Respite Care here.

The College is a community centred around prayer, and the two Chapels are at its heart. We offer weekly prayers for those who ask. If you would like to leave a request for prayer, please click here.

We also have three Libraries, a newly furnished Refectory and a Common Room equipped with state-of-the-art multimedia facilities. Residents can explore many different interests and all rooms have broadband access to the internet.

You can also find here a brief History of the College and learn about the Friends who support us.

If you are interested in coming to live here or have questions about the College, please begin by visiting the Frequently Asked Questions page.

To receive more information, or to arrange a visit to look round, contact us by completing the online request form or by ringing the Warden, Fr Howard Such.

We are always happy to receive visitors, and look forward to welcoming you.
