There has been a Christian place of worship on the site of St Marys' since at least 681 AD. The present church was built following the demolition of the medieval church in 1777. The church today, with its elegant spire, is a focal point in the town. St Marys' is open every day for people to come and visit, sit quietly, or attend any of the regular services.
Public Worship during the COVID-19 Pandemic
Worship in our church buildings
With the churchwardens, this week we made the decision to suspend public worship in all our church buildings for the time being. This is in response to the gravity of the situation: the increased risk of transmission of Covid-19, and the Chief Medical Officer's request that we stay at home and avoid contact with others. This will of course be kept under review, as public worship in church buildings is allowed under current restrictions. We will keep you updated through the coming days.
