Visiting
Finding us, and getting in
Getting here
The church is on Bridge Street, a few minutes' walk from the bus station. There is parking for around twenty cars in the yard behind the presbytery, entered from Mill Lane. On Sundays the car park fills before the 11am Mass, but the council car park on Weir Road is free at weekends and is a three minute walk.
The main door on Bridge Street has two steps. The side door from the car park is level and is open for every Mass.
Access
The side entrance from the car park is step-free and leads directly into the nave. There is an accessible toilet in the parish room, reached without steps.
A hearing loop covers the front two thirds of the church. Large print orders of service are kept at the back, and the parish newsletter can be sent by email in a larger typeface if that helps. Just ask the parish office.
Assistance dogs are welcome, and so is any other dog if the weather is bad and you would rather not leave them outside.
