Notes
1. Kathleen Black says:
The dates on this plaque were from 1914 to 1919, because the son of a member of the church had been killed in a flying accident in Mesopotamia in the early months of 1919. He was in the Royal Flying Corps and was my Uncle Harold Hutchinson."
2. The church was gutted by a fire on 10th March 1993. It was rebuilt and re-opened in 5th November 1994 with the old frontage intact but a new interior.
