A steady flow of people pray alone privately here....and we love this happening

The Abbey Church is open 5.30am-8.50pm daily, 365 days a year

We have had a steady flow of a few people praying alone and privately in the Abbey Church most days, which isn't uncommon....please feel welcome to pray in this place.
