St Peter's

Welcome to the webpage for St Peter's Church Centre - our community church and hall centre in the Primrose area of the town.

St Peter's Church was built in 1970. The modern centre includes a hall, community room, parish office and vestries as well as the worship area.

The centre is used almost constantly by a variety of community and church groups. Activities currently on offer include study groups, a dancing school, gentle aerobics (aimed at our more senior residents), a Gospel choir, a pipe band, a parent and toddler group, brownies, flower club, sequence dancing, slimming club, support groups, and others.
