Repairs Complete

Repairs complete!
We are happy to confirm that important repairs to the Parish Church have now been completed. They were undertaken by Grosvenor Construction of Kinmel Bay, specialists in conservation building work and renovation, under the supervision of architect Graham Holland. Work involving repairs to the roof, coping stones and leadwork took place in December 2024. In April this year, repairs to the church walls (repointing, replacement of windowsills and of badly weathered stones) was undertaken, as well as rebuilding of the churchyard wall by the lower gate.
We received generous grant support from the National Churches Trust (£2511), the Benefact Trust (£1750) and the Diocesan Building Fund (£3000) towards these repairs and are very grateful for their help. The cost of the work was £10,554, and the shortfall of £3293 (after the grants) has been paid from Parish Church funds.
With ancient and much-loved buildings such as the parish church, it is crucial to keep them in good condition not just for present users, but for generations to come.
