Holy Trinity is a Church of England church in the Anglo-Catholic tradition in Gosport, Hampshire, within the Anglican Diocese of Portsmouth.[1]

It is the civic church for the Gosport deanery[2] and hosts commemorative events and the annual mayor's carol service.[3]

The church is famous for its Grade II* listed organ, which was purchased in 1747 by the parishioners from the 1st Duke of Chandos and is believed to have been played by Handel.
