The New Marston Pastoral Centre, which is a charitable trust, is situated at the rear of St Michael and All Angels Church (junction of Marston Road and Jack Straw's Lane).  Built largely thanks to the generosity of the Trustees of the Doris Field Trust, it has its own entrance in Jack Straw's Lane (through the gate shown in the photo on the left).
