Restoring St Bride’s

The current work repairing and restoring the roof and stonework of St Bride’s is thanks to generous support from the National Lottery Heritage Fund, the City Churches Grants Committee and legacies from our congregation.

The work is being carried out by specialist contractors from Paye who continue to make excellent progress and are scheduled to complete this May.
