We are currently raising funds to repair the stonework to the church tower. This work has been highlighted as urgent in the latest five-year quinqennial review by a professional architect. The architect estimates it will cost a six figure sum including scaffolding, alarm extension and professional and other fees. We are seeking grants to cover the majority of this sum but in reality at least several thousand pounds of it will need to be raised by the PCC and Friends of Burrough through donations and fundraising events. 

The tower is constructed mainly from local sandstone with local limestone. This needs regular monitoring and maintenance to the mortar joints to prevent rain ingress and ice eroding and cracking the stone. The church architect's recommendation is that repairs including lime mortar pointing and replacement of eroded stones to the steeple, tower and parapet coping stones should be undertaken in the next twelve months.
