Our Rector will be travelling again to Kimberley in September to be installed as a Canon of Saint Cyprian's Cathedral - a well earned reward for all that he has done in promoting the Link.
We shall be honoured to have a rector who is The Revd. Canon Doctor Nicholas Molony.  Congratulations are certainly in order!

The Parish Church of Saint John the Baptist, Little Marlow, Buckinghamshire lies at the heart of this village in the Thames Valley, just a short walk from the river itself and next to the manor house.

The original construction of the church is Norman, dating from the final years of the 12th Century. The majority of the building was constructed during the 14th and 15th Centuries.
