Repairs to St Cadog’s Church, Llangadog
The Repairs to St Cadog’s church Tower
are nearly complete. There is some stonework at lower levels around
the windows and doors, and along the stringcourse to be replaced,
but the bulk of the work has been completed, thanks to our funders
HLF, CADW and others listed at the end of this article, and thanks
to our local contractors Doel and Rowlands and their team.
If you take a walk around the church now you
can see the new repointing of the stonework, and the new French
Drain around the base – what you can’t see from ground
level is the new roof on the tower, the repaired floor joists
in the bell chamber (see photo below), new flagpole, new mesh
covers over the louvred openings in the tower, and handrails inside.
The Heritage Lottery Fund have agreed that the
electrical wiring in the church can be replaced as part of this
project, using contingency funds, because the cable inside the
conduits had deteriorated. This work will be undertaken shortly
by Martin Rees Electrical Contractors.
