New Parish Centre and Car Park Area:
The car-parking area around the New Parish Centre is now ready for use. Please park there during Masses also, and leave the area behind the Priests’ house as free as possible. This is to enable access for the Fire Brigade, which, hopefully, won’t ever be needed. But we have to be conscious of health and safety.
We invite you to visit the new car parking area. Thank you for your co-operation.
