THE first bricks of the new Sunday school at Wycombe Marsh Baptist Church were being laid on May 12, 1956.

Sir John Hall is pictured, overseeing the laying of sponsored bricks at the official stone laying ceremony celebrating the breaking of a new dawn for religious worship and education at the old church in London Road.

The congregation, young and old, gathered alongside clergy and town notables on the building side to watch the bricks being laid on a sunny day 49 years ago.
