The story

The story behind the work.

Designed by John Dando Sedding, Holy Trinity is a Grade I listed church of national significance for its Arts and Crafts interior, Pre-Raphaelite furnishings and stained glass. Le Lay Architects has worked with the church for more than ten years through its appointment as Quinquennial Inspector.

The practice provides five-year condition surveys and advice on major repairs, heating and the everyday care of the building fabric, art and furnishings. Its work also includes meeting spaces, catering facilities and disabled access, helping the historic church remain useful to its congregation and wider community.
