January in Pictures - Part II

Week 3 – Not for the faint hearted
With the scaffolding around the main body of the Tower now complete, the team begin the heady job of extending the framework up the spire.

    









                         




Week 4 – That’s a lot of bubble wrap!
The historic stone pillars are one of the many structures in the church to be protected from damage during the works with layers of bubble wrap.
