St Thomas the Apostle

A lovely old postcard of St Thomas's Church on Lumn Road.

The church was built in 1868. 
I am happy to say that it is still open although the congregation is much smaller than it used to be. I suppose this is a sign of the times.

The graveyard was declared full during the 1950s.

More history can be found here.
