Community of St. Denys

The Community of St Denys (CSD) was an Anglican religious order of nuns founded in 1879,[1] under the jurisdiction of the Diocese of Salisbury of the Church of England.

The order was founded by Sir James Erasmus Philipps, 12th Baronet, vicar of St Denys' Church, Warminster from 1859 to 1897.

[citation needed] From 1890 the nuns ran St Monica's School for Girls, which had a boarding house in an 18th-century building on Vicarage Street.

[citation needed] In 2019, the sole surviving sister in vows – Frances Ann – was living in a retirement home in Salisbury.

[11] There is a registered charity of the same name, governed by a board of trustees and with an address in Warminster, Wiltshire.
