Holy Trinity Church is a Church of England church in Salway Ash, Dorset, England. The church was designed by George Crickmay and built in 1887–89.

In 1879, it was converted into a schoolroom, which led the then-rector of Netherbury, Rev. W. Gildea, to begin efforts towards erecting a new church in the village. The 1833 church continues to form part of Salway Ash Primary School today. Plans for the new church were drawn up by George Crickmay of the Weymouth and Westminster architects Messrs.
