Do you remember the fire at St.
Mary's church, 38 years ago? The 1769 pipe organ was sadly destroyed. On 22nd March 2023, during
an event for CTIPA's foodbank, recordings from 1973 were played
in St. Mary's for the first time. If organ music or the history is of any interest to you, listen
here which links to
others.
