My cousin got married there and I was a bridesmaid back in the 50's

I lived right opp. St Pauls and can remember being a choirboy. Also recollect swapping comics and sweets during the lengthy sermons!

Hi Meryl, I too got married there in 1958. My husband was in the local fire brigade so found that fire quite a difficult one

Top of my road.  Used to play in the church grounds with the neighbourhood kids.
