Came last Saturday for this excellent concert, the university choral and orchestral group with four first rate visiting soloists. The acoustic is great, the lighting etc well done and even in foul weather the discreet underfloor heating makes the church an ideal venue. We come whenever we can. We particularly enjoy the occasional organ concerts. The post war organ here... More

Exceptional architecture; good church acoustics and atmosphere - good traditional church building - cold in winter but no alternative with the building structured as it is

Situated on Royal Parade this is one of the only buildings in the city cenre that was not bombed during the war. If you like looking at old churches then this is a must for you.

There is much to like here, from the generous opening hours to the John Piper stained glass (personally, I like it though many would not, I am sure). When I visited... More

The stained glass windows add to the Spiritual sense of belonging to this beautiful building. I recently attended a funeral service here and it was a wonderful setting for this special event.
