Church of St George, Church Street, Clun - Shropshire (UA)

The C12 church of St George consists of a nave with same height chancel, north and south aisles, a north porch and a west tower of several stages. The body of the church sustained damage during the Civil War and was virtually reconstructed by GE Street in 1877. Roofs re-laid at that time are now failing and recently sustained storm damage has exacerbated conditions. The south aisle slate roof was stripped and re-laid in 2017 and the stone slate porch roof similarly overhauled in 2020 but plans and a timescale to deal with the nave, chancel and north aisle roof coverings are still to be agreed.
