Good News! St Mary in the Castle will remain open under present management until at least August 2012.
Barbara Rogers is the businesswoman whose hard work and dedication is currently keeping St Mary-in-the-Castle open with a café and management of event bookings.
She fears the building will close as her contract to run it expires on August 31.
She said: “There are no bookings for the autumn and I am here only to the end of next month. The council needs to do a very rapid rethink.
This Grade 11* listed is a rare example of a church as part of a residential development, the accoustics of the auditorium are internationally acknowledged as superb, and the building occupies a prime and iconic position on the sea front.
How has it been allowed to come to this - again?
