Ewhurst Church Restoration Projects

The church has two restoration projects under way:

​

Roof Repair

The church roof is urgent need of repair and this will require in excess of £700,000 in total, with some £400,000 needed for the first phase.  A temporary repair has been effected on the part that recently started leaking. 

​

Bell Refurbishment

The project to refurbish the mechanism for the 8 historic Ewhurst bells and to replace the 2 oldest bells, which date back to the 15th century has now completed successfully.  

​

The Heritage Lottery Fund 

awarded £26,300 of funding 

(48% of cost) for the bells, plus  

£200,000 (51%) towards the cost

of the first stage of the roof repair.
