This timeline lists all the Rectors of St. Mary de Ballaugh from 1408 to 1997.
The timeline is displayed at the rear of the Church and is a black wooden board with gold lettering.
The present Church was largely abandoned following the construction of the new Church closer to the centre of the village. It was saved, however, by the efforts of Rev. Thomas Howard who was appointed Rector in 1835. Rev. Howard removed the galleries and the chancel extension which had been added by Rev. James Wilkes (appointed in 1771); Rev. Howard also replaced the roof.
1771 is the date on the weather vane which is above the west front bell-gable.
The first mentioned Rector is Donald Mc Corkyll in 1408 and the latest is Cyril Rogers.
In total 30 Rectors are named on the Board.
