We had it confirmed today from a member of the Rose Queen’s retinue that the robes that were recently discovered in a store-cupboard at St Peter’s Church ARE the original robes from 1957!

The robes will be on display in St Peter’s Church Hall from Wednesday July 5 to Sunday July 9, as part of our celebration of community and the 60th anniversary of the day that John met Paul!
