346. The future of St David's Chapel


Shortly before I started this blog, the former St David's Chapel (more commonly known in recent years as 'Richard's Shed'!) was destroyed in a devastating fire.  I wrote a little about it on my other blog at the time and this newspaper article tells something of its history.  This is how it looks today with all the charred debris having been cleared.

A planning application has now been submitted for a workshop with living accommodation above.  This unique building in the heart of the village will be subject to very strict conservation regulations, particularly in regard to retaining the gable end with its bell tower.  It will be interesting to see what the future holds for this piece of village history.
