200th anniversary of the Church of St Martin of Tours, Epsom

Tabled by Helen Maguire (Liberal Democrat) 11 signatures

The motion

That this House congratulates the parish of St Martin of Tours in Epsom on the 200th anniversary of the laying of a new foundation stone in 1825 when the medieval church was largely rebuilt in the elegant Georgian style; notes that the Church has stood for two centuries at the heart of civic life in Epsom and Ewell Borough Council, serving as a place of worship, history and identity for the community; further notes the contribution of successive generations who have built, rebuilt and preserved the church, from the survival of its medieval tower to the Georgian nave and Edwardian east end; welcomes the programme of anniversary events, including lectures, choral services and community gatherings, which bring to life the town’s rich cultural and social history; and commends St Martin’s as a lasting witness to the heritage of Epsom, while continuing to play a vital role in the spiritual and community life of Epsom.
