The Congregational Church in Walsham is an integral part of the history of the village. The building work was originally commenced by the Methodists in the 1840’s (the precise date is not known), as a Wesleyan Church. However, due to financial difficulties they were unable to finalise the project, which was then taken over and completed by the Congregationalists.
Regular church services have been held there ever since that date. A Ladies Fellowship is another aspect of the ministry at the church.
For over 50 years an Easter Convention has been conducted at the church in the week leading up to Easter. Preachers are invited from around the country and people attend from a wide area for the purpose of the deepening of their spiritual lives.
