Peache Trust

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Peache Trust is an Anglican body formed in 1877 by Alfred Peache. It owns the advowson (the right to appoint the vicar) for a number of Anglican churches in England, and is responsible for selecting and appointing appropriate candidates as vicar for the churches in its trust.[1] As of 2010 it held the advowson for 45 churches.[2]
