St Marys or St Mary's

[East Kent Saint]

It seems to be normal to type St Marys on here but reading the BBC report of a great win today they wrote St Mary's , so what's the correct version ?

Still amazed at a 5-0 scoreline !

The club website mentions - St Mary’s

Saint Maries, because it's plural.

I'm a big fan of correctly used apostrophes.

St. Mary's is correct.

St Mary’s.

Sorry if that offends anyone in the ‘Keep apostrophes out of sport’ campaign.

It's obviously St Mary's, because it's named after St Mary's Church, as in the church OF St Mary.

Well I guess it's difficult for her to be the legal owner of any kind of property, given that she has been dead for over two thousand years (if she even existed in the first place, of course).
