The church is one of two major buildings in Old Town, the other being the old town hall, a few minutes walk away.

The interior of the building was remodelled in 2017 to provide better access, a gas heating system and LED lighting. The nave pews were retained and secured with an innovative fixing system allowing them to be removed on occasion to provide more space for large events.

The church grounds also house a modern community centre which hosts a variety of events and activities.

There is a second church in the parish: St Mary's, a 20th-century building on The Mall, attached to a sheltered housing complex.[2]
