    I used to go to this beautiful church back in the 1950s my two sisters were married there . And my three brothers were alter boys. We are the Daly family. We lived in Elmsleigh road. Which had to be demolished to build the flyover/ underpass. So unfortunately we had to move. I miss this lovely church, the few times my sister and I have visited the church had been closed. It would be lovely to visit again and actually go inside this lovely church . Lots of very fond memories from Dt. Mary Magdalen church and my old house in Elmsleigh road. If anyone has any old photos of the church and/or photos of Elmsleigh road I would love to see them . My email address is bj.daly@btinternet.com. Thankyou xxx
