It is not a Parish; became a regular Mass centre when Joe Higham retired there from Salford. Might be closed down because of difficulty in finding a resident priest. Suggests he considers it all to be temporary until situation becomes clearer; do not be "camping out" - claim from Sick Clergy Fund; charge necessities to the Diocese.

Writing to the Bishop and Fr Bradley. Conrad Rawnsley describes himself as a heretic and religious abstinent but feels he is writing on behalf of the Burnham Market community against moving Fr Malecki on. He is a man of many parts and has demonstrated a "super human" ability to master many practical building skills. It is wrong to move him on before he can enjoy the rewards of his labours. If he were to stay then his knowledge & talents could be used to direct similar constructional and maintenance work in other dioceses.
Rawnsley, Conrad Franklin Commander RN (Rtd.) (1907 -1997)Advise the Roman Catholics to accept a lease - a flexible arrangement with advantages for both sides. Terms of lease is for the Norwich Diocesan Board of Finance, but expect it be 99 year lease with no premium and a peppercorn rent. Roman Catholics to care and maintain the building; insure it for damage; alteration would be reported to the [Anglican] Diocese; clauses to limit use to worship and prevent disturbance of graveyard; allow relatives to tend graves. Commissioners prefer a sale than a gift.
