The builders have been hard at work, preparing the church for the under floor heating and electrical installation. All our precious church furniture in the chancel has been covered, to protect it from dust.​

Following the clearance of the church by members of the church family, the project’s main contractors, DBR, began work on Monday 5th January. The whole project is being overseen and coordinated by our Architect, Richard Andrews. We will be reopening the church for Easter, although practical completion of both internal and external work is expected in late Spring. We will be sharing more information as the project proceeds here and on our Facebook page.

The work is proceeding well and ahead of schedule. Exciting developments are the discovery of a previously-unknown vault under the north transept (an archaeologist is going to investigate this and record all the details) and the lifting of the iron memorial slabs which are now going to be sent to an expert conservationist before they are relaid in the new floor.
