- There are at present two Churches in our combined community, with one Parish Priest covering both. The church in Marple Bridge was scheduled to close on Easter Sunday this year. A conditional reprieve has been granted by our bishop following representations by parishioners. It now depends on us to keep our church open. The image below which lists the conditions can be magnified by clicking on it.
