Project Overview

Client: PCC Of All Saints Church, Moulton

Location: Moulton, Lincolnshire

Architect: Marshall Sisson Architect, Huntingdon

Programme: Six months of roofing, masonry and carpentry work.

Materials: Sixty tons of sandcast lead sheet; three tons of stone and 30 cubic metres of oak.

This church suffered major structural damage when it was struck by a T3 tornado in August 2005. Extensive lead and stone masonry repairs were required to restore it to its former glory.

The repair work took six months and required 60 tons of sandcast lead sheet. This sheet was installed to modern LSA standards, in conjunction with the design requirements of Helen Weatheral of architects Marshall Sissons. The great skills of both our carpenters and stonemasons were required to repair the damage to the decorative stone buttresses and traditional oak beams. Their expertise ensured that, where possible, the original materials were conserved while restoring the church's structural safety.
