The Church of St Mary Magdalene warmly welcomes you.
We are a historic Anglican Church, with a rich liturgical and musical heritage.
You are invited to join us at any of our weekly services.
The Church of St Mary Magdalene has achieved some fame in the Anglican Communion because of the work of Dr Healey Willan, Music Director from 1921 to 1968. His musical compositions and style of music, along with the Catholic liturgy of the parish, draw many people to experience the worship here.
