GREAT NEWS - In mid March English Heritage and Heritage Lottery Fund approved a grant of £82,000 towards the second phase of our roof repairs, this leaves us with a further £51,00 to raise before the work can start in the autumn.

Phase one of the repair work to the church roof started on March 8th (more pictures on Development page of this website). The work will take six months to complete.
