O[rgan]. – Large, fine ([organist, Richard] Redhead)

H[ymns]. – A. & M., an ordinary selection.

C[hoir]. – Surpliced, large, well-trained. 

Five bells and a clock.

[The congregation numbered] 950 Crowded, some standing and these are normal conditions.  […] There were few elderly men and some mashers. 

S[ermon]. – [We d]idn't stop. 

All decently and in order.

[…]

M[iscellaneous]. – This was Palm Sunday but no reference was made much to-day.  I[t] was all quite ordinary.   

Men (1/3rd) - half the nave. 

Women (2/3rds) - half the nave and the whole of one aisle. 

I saw nothing extreme - far from it.
