Marriage where one of the parties is divorced and has a former spouse still living

All the four parishes of Herriard with Winslade, Tunworth, Upton Grey and Weston Patrick have agreed to consider the possibility of marriage where one of the parties is divorced and has a former spouse still living. If this applies to you, please let us know that this is the case and we’ll do all we can to help guide you through some additional paperwork and permissions.
