The practice had previously, at the request of the Church, submitted examples of its recent work. The Foodbank has brought to our attention that people are suffering due to this long term reduction in income and many people are getting behind on rent and mortgages and are struggling with the essentials. This would have meant that the finished sculpture would have needed protection for two years from damage during construction and it was more practical to leave recesses into which the finished stations could be placed.

Succeeding to the See of Clifton in 1949, Bishop Rudderham decided during the 1960s that the Pro-Cathedral should be renovated, and consecrated with the intention of bringing to an end its provisional status as the mother church of the diocese. Contact The synthesis of the Plan form stems from the arrangement of a congregation of a thousand people in as close a proximity as possible to the High Altar so that they may take an active part in the celebration of the Holy Eucharist. It was possible in the talk to identify the steel fixer, the formwork designer, the carpenter, and the concrete placer with their respective responsibilities in producing a perfectly cast piece of concrete wall. The major requirement was to provide a space where a congregation of 1000 could be grouped closely around the High Altar so that they should feel and be a part of the celebration of the Mass. Consequently this was adopted as the module or regulating dimension for the whole of the design. Concrete was poured at three o’clock each afternoon and the formwork removed at eleven o’clock the following morning. The figure is made up of 318 bar welded together and nickel plated. In the 1870s, the exterior style of the church was changed and Charles Hansom, again, as the chosen architect designed a North Italian Romanesque style for the school (later the parish hall), the atrium with its porch and the pinnacled facade. Tucked under rugs in the back of his shooting brake was a lump of Caen stone – but what a stone.

It’s easy to be wise after the event. It was impossible to keep the construction team away as the formwork was removed. Construction began in March 1970 by John Laing & Son Ltd, with the contract price agreed at £601,268 - with the additional cost of the site and other fees this brought the total cost of the new building to £800,000.
