Hello
I am looking for a photo of the first St Dunstan's Roman Catholic church in Somerton. It was of a wooden construction - from 1927 until the current stone one was built in 1965. Has anyone got a photo of it - perhaps in a wedding photo?
Thanks
Angela :)

Why don't you write to St. Dunstan's and ask if they have any photos of the wooden church? Their email address is:-
somerton.stdunstan@parish.cliftondiocese.com
The priest is the Rev. Jan Bak SDS

Hello
Thanks for your reply - but they have no photos of the former church. Also there are no photos in any books in Somerton library.
thanks again
