Concerts At St Marys
CONCERT FACILITIES
While looking forward to welcoming you to our venue, we would like to point out that as a church and a listed building, St Mary's offers the advantages of beautiful surroundings and excellent acoustics. Equally, it has the constraints of limited lavatory facilities and on-site parking. Out of respect for our neighbours, will visitors please avoid parking in The Avenue whenever possible and instead use the ample free parking behind the Civic Centre.
