I have been delighted to work with Robert Chitham ( architect ) within my own village. In conjunction with the full support of our local community we have refurbished our parish church to enhance and extend its use.

The church now houses our community shop, post office, gallery cafe and has a much improved space for services, exhibitions and performance.

This Grade 2 listed building now has the benefit of below floor heating using a wood pellet boiler, much improved levels of insulation and extensive use of recycled materials. We have a free standing belltower adjacent dated to 1195! Well worth a visit!
