Historical Records
Our church has a range of original records dating back over two centuries. These are very useful if you are studying local history and genealogy.
Copies of these records are available to view if you visit the church. However, that’s not ideal if you cannot reach the church in person. Also, that’s only part of what we have available.
We’ve added about 1500 records so far. We plan to add thousands more soon.
We have begun a project to digitise and post some of our records online – graves, memorials and plaques in and around the church – so that everyone everywhere can access the information. This project will take some time, but keep checking here as more records become available.
These are exterior and interior maps for use with headstone and memorial records.
These are headstones marking graves in St.Modwen’s churchyard.
You can also find details of some (not all) graves at Find a Grave.
These are headstones (not graves) moved from the demolished Holy Trinity Church.
Notable burials and memorials (coming soon)
