Bishop Patrick has decreed that from 8th September, the two parishes in Glossop will merge into one, to be known as the Parish of Blessed Nicholas Garlick, Glossop.
Both churches are to retain their names and each will have the status of a parish church.
An excellent article about Blessed Nicholas Garlick, written by Tim Campbell-Green, can be found on the author’s blog.
The report from the consultation, and supporting documentation, can be viewed online.
Bishop Patrick’s decree is below.
