St Andrews old church update - further update

| 0 Comments

Further to our story (here), there have been developments at the old churchyard.

Bish dot net has learnt that the Trustees (who are responsible for the churchyard in its entirety) have closed off the path around the site and the site itself whilst work is carried out.  The lighting has been repaired at a cost of over £500, and CCTV has been installed. A donation of soil has been delivered, and our picture below shows workman levelling it out along the river bank in order to build up the path, and provide footings for the ironwork fence panels that will be installed along the river side of the church yard. 

Earthworks
 

An application has been made for funding to install the fencing, and once done access to the church yard will be by the front gates that will be kept locked at night. 

The Trust has published an update on the current situation that can be downloaded and read in pdf here
