After years in the planning, the pew have finally been removed!
In some places the floor needs making safe - hence the buckets.
The removal of the pews will enable this space to be used in so many different ways.
As I stood at the back of the church
I could see the tiled sections of the floor, forming a cross,
leading towards the Sanctuary.
I was reminded that change is not always easy
and the revealed cross reflects that change can be very costly.
We have chairs too, but the church was designed without pews. Threw English Heritage when they were assessing listing - "Well, you'll have to put the pews back" "What pews? It's never had pews" Huff, puff. It's useful being flexible - we turn it round or take the chairs out to do things, like Bright and Light parties.
