The sight of it sent me scurrying down Wellington Road to the present St. Mary’s, officially named Our Lady of the Assumption, to take a photograph of the current altar area for comparison.
Father Charles Ramsay (pictured above) takes delight in describing the present altar table top as being made of volcanic lava material 150 million years old. The present Joseph & Mary figures make interesting comparison with those in the old postcard.
My thanks to Charles for his hospitality. You could get in touch with him by phoning (01745) 353395 or sending email to: chas37free@gmail.com
