William Anelay Ltd has been contracted by the Parochial Church Council to carry out restoration works at St. Laurence's Church in York. Anelays carried out earlier Phase I and II works and have now begun Phase III in earnest working again with architects Ferry and Mennim.
Over a period of 22 weeks, the Company will carry out essential repairs to the remaining un-restored roof timber structure. There will be some re-lining and re-leading of the Church's gutters, some minor masonry repairs and re-pointing and some glazing refurbishments. Work is expected to be completed before the end of August 2007
Earlier works involved repairs to the timber roof structure, brickwork, plastering and redecoration at eaves level, lead gutter repairs and repair of the high level leaded glass. A temporary roof support was used whilst the roof timbers were repaired.
