Overview
Recently reordered for wider community use DHCT originally helped with a £4,000 grant towards the £170,000 required to complete the project.
The Grant Application & Project
Whilst the windows were refurbished along with the installation of WC and Servery unit, mobile pews and floor restoration, the PCC fell short of the monies to repair portions of the central stone mullion and corbel that had severely deteriorated
The photos below show the window before & after restoration.
We are very grateful to have received help from the Devon Historic Churches Trust.
