The church had its 5 yearly architect’s inspection last August and at an open meeting in St Swithun’s church on 30th June the full extent of his report was revealed.
For hundreds of years the church has stood as a local landmark and the centre of the community. It has withstood attacks upon it by Oliver Cromwell, a devastating village fire and the collapse of its tower, but now it is falling into disrepair due to the ravages of time.
The architect’s report calculates that around £200,000 needs to be spent on it in the next 5 years. Your can see the presentation and how you can help in the presentation below.
Forthcoming events to support the cause include Royston Choral Society in concert March 14th, Music Quiz Night, Parish Cricket Tournament, Summer Ball, Rugby World Cup celebrations and more, Suggestions and offers of help welcome!
