Choir Vestry Refurb
Whilst planning a refurb of the Choir Vestry at the end of last year the architect found that there is Dry Rot present in some of the timber. Stage 1 of the work will begin early February which will be exploratory followed by whatever work is required. During the work we will have limited, and at times, no access to the Choir Vestry. More information to follow when it is available. Help will be needed in January to clear the Choir Vestry ready for the work to begin. Revd Mike.
