Sussex Group visit to St Peter's Church, Brighton

Event details

Thursday 22 May, 11am to 12.30pm

Join us for a visit to St Peter’s Church Brighton to see masonry, clock face and other external repairs.

This is a chance to climb the scaffold around the church tower and take a look at work undertaken by DBR, the conservation contractor on the project. This will include masonry repairs and stone carving, and repairs to the clock faces. 

The project has been underway on this site for ten years, but is expected to complete this summer. Some members may remember our last visit to see the work around seven years ago. 

Jack Herniman of DBR will host the tour and answer all questions as we proceed around.
