As far as possible, marked-up photographs are provided to illustrate the description. These attempt to provide an indication of the visual impact on the building, but should not be taken as a precise demonstration.
Insulation of Clergy Vestry
Modifications are required to be made to the clergy vestry to meet the needs of a working environment in terms of heat, light and comfort. New under-felt and carpet in a neutral light colour - beige - will replace the existing worn out red carpet. The internal porch, which has been added subsequently, will be removed in order to improve the space available for office equipment and better insulation will be provided on the inside of the exterior vestry door with the gaps around it sealed (Figure 17). The ceilings (Figure 18) will be insulated between rafters. The wall cupboard, which at present is a series of add-ons (Figure 19) on the left hand side will be reinstated as previously but split panelled doors into 4 rather than 2. A door-closer will be added to the internal door, to prevent it being left open by visitors to the vestry office. The fluorescent light strip (Figure 18) will be replaced with uplighters.
