From the 13th Century until 1918 Halford Parish was part of the Diocese of Worcester but since then it has been in the Coventry Diocese.
Between 1932 and 1974 the Parish was united with the neighbouring Newbold-on-Stour. Since then Halford has been an independent Parish and for some years shared its Priest in charge with Alderminster just up the road on the way to Stratford-upon-Avon. This was before the formation of the ‘Stourdene’ group of five Parishes in 1997, which brought Ettington, The Pillertons, and Butlers’ Marston into the same group as Alderminster and Halford.
Throughout the centuries, as today, the local community assists the Churchwardens and the Parochial Church Council in the upkeep of the building and the churchyard including the regular tasks of cleaning, arranging floral decorations, the grass mowing and the laundering of altar linen.
