Heritage and History in our Parish:

In December 2005, the Parish Pastoral Council commissioned a catalogue of all historical records and items of local heritage.

The above catalogue has been compiled as a .pdf document. It contains a list of published works, primary and secondary sources, photographic materials and recordings. All relate to the history of the parish.
