Church of St John the Baptist, Edingale - Lichfield

The church of St John the Baptist has C13 origins and consists of a nave with a west tower and a chancel with a north side organ chamber. Several phases of past repairs, remodelling and rebuilding are clearly evident. A Listed Places of Worship Roof Repairs Grant awarded in June 2016 facilitated the renewal of the tower, nave and chancel roof coverings, parapet gutter linings, rainwater goods and new surface water drainage. A grant from the Cultural Recovery Fund programme has enabled high level masonry and repointing works to be carried out but low-level repointing work remains outstanding.
