Facing north-south, the church makes an impressive appearance at the end of East Castle Street

Telford's two-storey windows result in a light, bright interior

Its historical position, adjacent to the Castle Gardens, provides for wonderful wedding photograps

This is our children's quiet corner, where we have books and jigsaws, crayons and soft toys.

As part of a variety of styles of worship, St Mary's offers special services for young children on the first and third Tuesday of each month at 2pm. Young Family Praise is a short, very informal service of 20 minutes for families with pre-school children. Singing, activities and a story are followed by an opportunity for adults to chat over a cup of tea while children play.

We have eight bells, the tenor being 8cwt; regularly ringing such methods as plain hunt and bob doubles; we practice Wednesday evenings, ring Sunday mornings, and are available for weddings! New ringers or trainees are welcome - we're a friendly bunch and you don't have to be a churchgoer.

Under the direction of our Organist and Director of Music, Dr John Turnock, our robed children's and adult choirs rehearse on Friday evenings, sing on Sunday mornings, and take part in many public performances in our church and elsewhere. New members - particularly male voices - of all ages, are very welcome.
