Option 2: The Story of St. Paul's Church
Offers an opportunity to relive the history of the first 100 years as told by Eunice Openshaw, Secretary to the Parochial Church Council (PCC) at the time of publication in 1976 to mark the Centenary. It is extremely well researched and written in a style which enables the reader to feel that they have witnessed the life of the church as it unfolded.
A fascinating read. (contains some black & white pictures of the times)
