St Mary Magdalene's church has been here, on Hollybush Lane, worshipping God and serving the community since 1882. We are in the catholic tradition of the Church of England. Expect robes, candles, traditional hymns, contemporary music, moments of stillness, time-honoured prayers, and relaxed formality.

We seek to be a church for the whole local community, and to welcome all with generous hospitality, sharing the love of God.
