South Transept – week 4
I am about to do a new thing: now it springs forth, do you not perceive it? Isaiah 43:19 NRSV
With all the extra groundwork and plumbing required for our new facilities finished, the new build has started but not without further discoveries…
1. Last week, a small digger began to create a deep hole for our new pumping station, as part of the extra plumbing required to support our new toilets. Six feet down and workmen found yet more bones.
2. Meanwhile, the inside of the south transept is undergoing dramatic change with the start of the new build. Workmen have created the basic structure for our new toilets, exit lobby and sink/drainer area. A special foam and plasterboard will be fitted to all walls to soundproof the new toilets. You may notice that our smaller toilet is slightly taller than the large one. This will allow the memorial tablet set into the south wall, to still be seen in its entirety.
