In Christ Church, Warminster, The First 150 Years, a booklet published in October 1980, to celebrate the 150th birthday of Christ Church, the Rev. John C. Day (Vicar) wrote:

Church Charities

Time was when the church as well as being the spiritual provider was also the place where social and cultural and educational needs were met as well. Most churches have their ancient charities. Some of this parish’s are recorded on a board under the tower. For instance, we read that the annual rent of a house and farm at Rehobath (between Folly and Cannimore Lane) amounting to £25 left by Mrs. Elling was to be distributed in coals, clothes or money at Christmas.

One Matthew Davies bequeathed in 1878 the sum of £2,000 to the Vicar and Wardens of Christ Church, the income from this sum to be distributed in coals to the oldest poor men and women of the parish. This gentleman left a further £1,000, the income of which was to be spent on the Mission School at Warminster Common.

Lastly, there is listed, the bequest of Charles Bleeck, a local doctor, who in 1878 left £424 3s. 5d. in stock, the interest of which was to be used by the Vicar and Churchwardens in the purchase of beef for the poorest and most needy persons in the district.

In more recent years these old charities have been combined with other local bequests to the town and its churches to form the Warminster Town Charities which still make grants to individuals in need and to local worthy causes.
