The second round bid is currently being worked on and is due for submission to the Heritage Lottery fund by the end of June 2016.
PPIY Architects are acting on our behalf.
The Delivery Phase is now complete and we have chosen our roofing contractor.
But, we have a dilemma…. should we use:
Option 1 – reclaimed roof tiles
Pros – work should be able to comment on target, i.e. around July 2016
Cons – may be difficult to source ‘good’ tiles, provenance of tiles
Option 2 – new roof tiles
Pros – manufactured specifically to our requirements, longer life span
Cons – only produced by 1 quarry in the country, could take up to 12 months delivery
In both cases all tiles that can be salvaged will be taken from the North side of the church and used on the South side (facing the road). The North side roof will be replaced with either reclaimed or new tiles.
