From St. James's Palace, London (The Office of His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales)
"His Royal Highness was delighted to be able to visit such an inspiring church and he much valued your guided tour explaining its remarkable history. It is such a special place which is so clearly loved by all those who worship in it. It deserves to be conserved and preserved for future generations to enjoy and treasure."
