Proposal
Emergency works package to stabilise the existing church and to mitigate the risk to the adjoining property following partial roof collapse. Works will include the sorting and relocation of debris within the building where required and the removal and safe storage of fixings and fittings to facilitate the removal of debris that cannot be retained. The works are proposed to minimise any further loss and deterioration of the Church's historic fabric as far as possible, and to enable access to the building to carry out future repairs / redevelopment.
