Stanborough Park Church

Project name and location:

Stanborough Park Church, Watford

Brief summary of the project:

Cosmur completed refurbishment and extension works to this church to meet the needs of a growing congregation. Works involved removing the sub-gallery and incorporating it into the Worship Hall, and installing new glazed doors set in a traditional arched stone surround to provide improved links between the sanctuary and the main concourse. A number of steel roof trusses were replaced with reinforced concrete structure which improved visibility and enhanced the worship space with a central entrance, a glass balustrade and reuse of traditional windows and stonework salvaged from the original church.
