Yes there is! It's a rather new church and you'll see it on your A-Z on
New John Street West, near the junction with Gt King Street. It replaced
the old St George's Parish Church sometime in the 1970s I'd say from the
architecture - but it is quite some distance from the old one (someone
else will have to provide that address), and hence has no churchyard. My
husband's family are closely involved with this church and we have
attended weddings. christenings and burials there often, as well as the
yearly fete.
Regards,
Helen
