We do hope that you will have an opportunity to visit to our historic church.

Christians have worshiped here for over 700 years. The building has withstood both the coastal weather as well as the swings of religious and political fortune over that time.

A fine history of the church has been prepared by Mr. David Butcher and Mr. Michael Soanes and is on sale in the narthex. Other souvenirs and items of local interest are also available.
