Our history
If you are interested in church history, we have two downloads available (scanned from printed documents). Download the pdfs below.
"A portrait of Christ Church 1693-2003" was written after the refurbishment of Christ Church in 2002-3. It draws on the earlier version (below) for much of the history, but brings the story up to date and illustrates it with many personal accounts and pictures.
"The story of Christ Church, Quoiting Square, Marlow 1693-1986" was the result of detailed research into archive material. It gives you much more information on the history of the church down the years.
Much research is currently being done into former Marlow residents by Kathryn and Charlotte Day, who write the Marlow Ancestors blog. They have written up a number of former ministers and members of our church, of which perhaps the most interesting is Marlow Ancestors: Andrew Mearns -Marlow Hero! Well worth checking out!
