St.Mary-le-Tower
is the Civic Church of Ipswich.
A church has stood on this site for over a thousand years.
The Borough Charter was read in the Churchyard in 1200.
Situated in Tower Street, running from Tavern Street (a major
shopping street) to Tower Ramparts bus station with access on
foot from Hatton Court (off Tavern Street) and Oak Lane (off Northgate
Street).
St. Mary-le-Tower marks God’s presence in a busy town centre.
Its mission is to those who work, shop in, and visit the Town
centre.
Its Parish includes the Town Hall, virtually the whole town centre
shopping area, banks, insurance, offices, and a wide variety of
businesses. Although only a few people live within the parish,
the congregations come from all over Ipswich and beyond.
St. Mary-le-Tower has a musical tradition of which any cathedral
would be proud.
