Subject to all legal formalities being fulfilled, the patrons of the Benefice of Lower Peover and Over Peover are delighted to announce the appointment of Fr Murray Aldridge-Collins as the new incumbent of the aforesaid Parishes.

Father Murray has recently completed his curacy in the Parish of Holy Trinity and Saint Peters Ilfracombe, with Saint Peters Bittadon, Devon.

There is currently no date fixed for his official Induction, but there will be further information on this in due course.

The appointment of Fr Murray comes at a time of uncertainty and national concern, and is therefore a most welcome and stabilising factor for us all.
