Marchamley is in the parish of Hodnet, served by St Luke's Church.  St Lukes has a chapelry at Westwood under Redwood.  There is also the Chapel of the Epiphany at Peplow built in the 1870's.

I have found family from Marchamley in the Hodnet registers in the 1700's, but the records are very patchy.  Many entries you would expect to find are missing - case of bad book keeping?
