The Steelwork goes up: the steel lattice structure to support the glass roof of the Ambulatory is being welded into place this week.

This week has seen the next significant stage of construction with the big roof trusses being set up. These will be partly visible inside the hall and form the inside of the roof. 

The cill of the small window in the priest’s vestry was too low for the height of the new kitchen units so it has been taken out and rebuilt higher, making the new kitchen window a bit smaller.  It will line up with the window to the loo which is next to it. Next week the first part of the steelwork for the Ambulatory roof will be put up and the main roof to the Hall will be constructed; then we will really start to get an idea of the finished building.

The stone surround to the door from the Ambulatory into the church has been completed and looks very nice – or at least it will do when the flints have been re-built around it. The door will be tinted glass in a bronze frame set in an outer bronze frame.  The line of lead flashing above the surround will come off as will the two lengths of old render on the wall, and the wall neatened up.
