MAJOR BUILDING WORKED - CHURCH CLOSED ST ANDREW'S, CONGHAM If you have wandered through Congham churchyard in recent weeks you will have seen that scaffolding has been erected around the church. Major building works commenced in the first week of the new year. It is expected that the work will be completed in the early summer. Essential repairs are being carried out on the roof and bell tower and the roof will be re-tiled. There will also be improvements to the electrical wiring, heating and lighting. All of this work is needed to ensure that our much loved historic church building is preserved for the future as a place of worship and a resource for all the community. Work is progressing well and the all the tiles are now off the roof, and the new wooden batons are being hammered in place.
