Forty years ago on 10th May 1977, the church was almost totally destroyed by fire, caused by arson. It was subsequently rebuilt on a smaller scale to a design by Donald Buttress and dedicated in 1984. To mark the anniversary we held a Solemn Mass with special music, followed by a reception.

The Anglican Rosary: praying with beads
Praying with beads is a very simple way of finding a rhythm and creating space for personal prayer wherever you are. The Anglican rosary is inspired by the traditional rosary but is more flexible and adaptable to the seasons of the Church’s calendar.
