The original Church of England parish church of Saint Andrew was simple Gothic Revival building designed by the architect H.G.W. Drinkwater and completed in 1888.[1] After its centenary the building was demolished and replaced with a new church that was consecrated in April 1990. St. Andrew's was part of the Bracknell Team Ministry.[2] St Andrew's has been part of the Warfield Church family since 2014.

Bracknell Methodist Church is also in Priestwood.[3]
