What is planned?

We need to build a new internal entrance to
the church which will enclose new toilet
facilities.

We also need to have running water in the
church and a sink for the use of those
arranging flowers in the church.

Why is this needed?

The alterations will allow the church to be
used by many more people. The toilet
facilities will be suitable for use by visitors
to church, but will also benefit the whole
congregation. We wish to make our church
as usable and accessible as possible, to all
in our community, including those with
disabilities.

Improving the amenities at the church will
enable increased use of the church by the
whole village community for concerts,
school services, and other events. A water
supply in the church will allow for the
preparation of light refreshments after
services, or at other functions.

The new porch will provide a better view of
the stained glass in the West Window, and
will help to keep the church warm.

What are we going to do?

This is an architect’s* sketch of the
planned works as viewed from inside the
church.

The scheme has taken a long time to
come to fruition as we have sought
advice from many different authorities to
ensure that we have a workable addition
to the building, which is totally in keeping
with the present church.

Further details of the proposed work can
be seen on display in the church, or
come to the Parish Gift Day on Saturday
31st March when there will be someone
on hand to explain the scheme.

The estimated cost of this project is
£65,000. This is a considerable sum as
this is work to a listed building, and will be
carried out by specialist builders, under
the guidance of our architects.

We have been promised £27,000 from
various funding bodies but we still need
a further £33,000 to carry out the work.
