We have just completed Phase 1 of the works at Lytham Methodist Church, replacing the slate roof and making repairs at roof level. The works had the benefit of a temporary roof so the contractor could continue through the worst of the winter weather. The works were finished four weeks early.

This is a small but, we hope, perfectly formed addition to a Victorian gate lodge in the countryside north of Preston. It is of two storeys and exploits the change in level between the entrance drive and the garden.
