St Mary's Church Repairs

Over £27,000 has been raised so far.

Funding is in place, planning permission granted, appropriate certificates and contracts have been signed. Work to repair the window, buttress and masonry on the North East side of the church and stonework on the tower will begin on June 13th and last for 13 weeks.

Scaffolding will be erected and all precautions will be taken to make it safe and inaccessible. Members of the public are asked to be vigilant and report any trespass.

Grateful thanks to all who helped in any way to raise money for the repair project! Donations, concerts, an Art Exhibition, a Quiz Night, together with monthly Porch Sales and Boot Fairs have raised over £27,000. Our target is to raise £30,000. English Heritage and other grant-funding bodies are providing the rest of the money. A list of these grants will be posted outside the church shortly.
