Father Clancy with Father Eric Morgan, assistant priest 1956–1962.

One of the photographs “from the church archive” published on Voices of Kingstanding’s Christ the King page in November 2012, alongside a short history of the parish written for its eightieth anniversary.

The parish history records Fr John Clancy as parish priest from 1958 to 1986, the longest-serving in the parish, and says he took on the parish “with a view to organizing the building of a church”.

Notes

Dated from the label: Fr Clancy arrived in 1958 and Fr Morgan left in 1962.
