Situation
Westminster Cathedral Hall a listed building almost 125 years old with leaded windows. These windows leak water into the Hall and into the walls of the hall causing damage and let in cold air and drafts. The hall is a community building in fairly constant use. It is a parish hall, it is used by other local groups such as choirs, individuals, the blood transfusion service, and, as a school hall. It needs to be warm, dry and comfortable, which the deteriorated windows are preventing.
Solution
The Friends of Westminster Cathedral will arrange to have each window removed, fully renovated and put back in place restoring the windows to the state they were in when first installed. This will eliminate the water leaks, and cold drafts whilst keeping the Hall exactly to its original design as is necessary for a listed building.
