In 1973 Rev'd David Watson's congregation which had outgrown St Cuthbert's church premises on Peasholme Green moved here. The choir stalls and the pulpit were removed the latter was replaced by a modern preaching platform which you can see today. David moved to London in 1982 but died 2 years later. Faithful preaching prayer and gifted leadership have resulted in a dynamic witness in and beyond York which still continues.
