ST ANDREW'S CHURCH, HECKINGTON
ROOF REPAIR APPEAL
THIS IS A PICTURE OF ST ANDREW'S IN 1831
before the nave roof was raised to its present height as part of a major restoration in 1866-67.
This roof is now 140 years old and is in need of major repairs.
The south side urgently needs reslating if it is to survive.
English Heritage has offered a grant of £30,000 towards the estimated cost of £90,000.
We have to find the remaining £60,000 over a limited period of time
We are all working hard applying for grants and organising fund raising events, but we desperately need everyone's help to save Heckington's magnificent church building for future generations.

AS A WITNESS TO CHRISTIANITY AND TO LINCOLNSHIRE'S RICH HERITAGE?
