analysis, it was clear that the brief requirements for the North & South Churchyard buildings
remained signifi cant at circa:
1693sqm
However, this compares favourably with the competition brief of:
1916sqm (for the equivalent range of functions) and:
2834sqm (overall)

Of which approximately 340m 2 is available within the existing accommodation on the church site – ie Choir
Vestry, Undercroft, Verger’s Vestry, Inner Vestry and Shop – cross refer to Drg No 0350 SK 047. The new

to the church and could be located as community facilities elsewhere in the remodelled neighbourhood.
