St Anne’s Church Edgeside, Waterfoot

Situated in Rossendale, Lancashire

Internal alternations and refurbishment works to create community centre

The works comprised of a reduced level dig of the main church floor in order to incorporate a modern insulated concrete slab and under floor heating systems. New kitchen, toilet and entrance accommodation was also constructed but in sympathy with the existing church design and incorporating an overall theme that visually would appear to be in the shape of a ships hull.

Access to the project was extremely difficult and the company went to lengths to ensure that whilst the external features of the church were protected, methods of material distribution were employed which would cope with both the restricted access and Health & Safety requirements of the project.
