Pompey Chimes: 2001-2017


The Pompey Chimes was our 16-page newspaper, which was distributed to 8,000 readers across our parishes and church schools each month from 2001 until 2017. It included news and features from Church of England parishes and schools across south-east Hampshire and the Isle of Wight. Pages from each publication are available to view online, as an archive of what was happening during these years.

In 2018, the Pompey Chimes was replaced by a quarterly magazine to serve the diocese, which you can read here. News and events will primarily be featured on our website. You can read copies of the Pompey Chimes from each year below:
