Church of St James, Church Lane, Newton-in-the-Isle - Fenland

Newton-in-the-Isle parish church with C13 nave arcade, but mainly C14 with C15 and C19 alterations. Rubblestone with brick repairs and plaster rendered. The internal building environment is extremely damp due to water penetration through the external envelop, impervious cementitious render, concrete floors and defective rainwater management system. Cracks to the tower staircase masonry and steps. The congregation are considering the next steps.
