Sacred Heart Church

[mick]

I do know someone that managed to get a section of the stained glass from the small
panels near the front door

Well, I suppose it is being put to some good use.......it's better than being used as hardcore for some motorway extension.

I also got told today that a builder from the Lake District had bought most of the stone, for building new cottages in that area.

Off to work now

...It sounds like that nice old Accrington landmark Church is now going to make lovely weekend homes for wealthy London & Manchester yuppies up in the Lake District. Is'nt life wonderful!

They might not be spreading the good word, but they are certanly spreading the building all over the place
