It was great to be back at St Philip and St James’ Church in Leckhampton, Cheltenham, for more heritage recording. I do a lot of photography for the Church. To view my previous visit please click here. On this occasion I was hired for a further hour to complete the ever extending list of shots they require for English Heritage.

Later this year the Church is to undergo a multi million pound reordering process - the interior is being pulled out and given a major, modern day facelift. Stackable chairs will replace the pews and glass pods will be inserted and used for meeting rooms. It will create a more useable, adaptable space. Click here to see the exciting new plans.

If you run a charity and need some professional photos taking then please get in touch using my contact page or send an email to info@mouseabouttown.co.uk. Alternatively, give me a call on 07983 465414. I reduce my fees significantly for charity work and in some cases don’t apply a charge at all. Thanks.

The photo list was lengthy and included the documentation of one hundred pew ends, that’s two hundred in total! Fair to say I haven’t included them all in this blog as they would likely crash the website, but each one was stunning.

It was a fascinating glimpse into parts of the Church I’ve never had the privilege of seeing before. The Columbarium, in the basement, was truly magical.
