Seating arrangements for Mass

When you arrive at church, please queue in your group at a safe distance from everyone else. Tell the steward how many are in your group and your steward will guide you to a suitable pew. Please do not change seats unless asked to do so by a steward. When you leave, your seats will be sanitised before they can be used again.

To keep a safe distance, we will only use every other row; there will be empty rows between each seated row. The north and south aisles can accommodate a single person or up to 3 adults or 2 adults+2 children as a family group. The central nave pews have access from either end and so can seat 2 single adults. They are also longer, so can seat 2 separate couples. They can also accommodate a larger group, up to 5 adults or 2 adults+4 children as a family group.

  • Families of up to 3 adults or 2 adults+2 children: book 1 spot

  • Families of up to 5 adults or 2 adults+4 children: book 2 spots

  • Larger groups: please contact us for booking advice

Please review your existing bookings in case you have overbooked

Space is very restricted in the church under distancing rules, and most of the congregation will be excluded even if we do this well. If you have booked more than you need, please amend your reservation, or cancel it and start again.

Please note that once a Mass is fully booked, it no longer shows in the booking system.
