Church conversion

PS You also need to ask yourself about potential heritage works in a few years or a couple of decades.

 

If you land yourself with a serious stained glass renovation project in 15 years, you will know that you are paying for it. Local congregations regularly raise between a couple of thou and tens of thou for such. Also, has it got any lead roofs? If those get stolen it will be pricey, and I do not see local council COs being as well informed or flexible as Church authorities.

 

Church of England churches corporately spend about £160m a year on maintenance and new buildings, not including cathedrals. 100m plus of that is maintenance. That is an average of 6-10k per church building give or take. You need to make sure that you are at the right end of the spectrum.
