At last, the Parochial Church Council (PCC) has some positive news about the rebuilding of our beautiful church that I wish to update you about. On 3 July 2023 the Derby Diocese Advisory Committee decided to “not object” to our faculty application (the equivalent to a planning application) to start rebuilding the walls and roof of our church. This is good news and a big step forward. As part of the next steps process, we have entered into a 28 days statutory notice period giving anyone in the parish the right to object to our faculty application. The public notice has been posted in the church notice board on Lower Road and on the notice board on Langley Park Estate. The final decision to approve or reject our faculty application lies with the Diocese Chancellor and we are hoping to hear from him in September/October. The PCC will give you an update as soon as we hear from the Chancellor. Don McLure Parochial Church Council Project Lead
