Project Baptist Church, York
Disabled access for the whole congregation.
The Baptist Church is a Listed Grade II building, first listed in 1997, for its special architectural and historic interest.
Director, Chris Walker, is theretained Architect for the Baptist Church buildings carrying out the Quinquenial Inspections. In 2014 we obtained listed building consent for improvements to the entrance and access to the church.
The Listed Building consent application was for an improved entrance on the west elevation with a new glazed entrance door to replace a plain mid c20 glazed double door. In addition, new steps and a fully compliant ramp with new handrailings for improved disability access (Building Regulations approved document M) together with new paving to replace a concrete area currently used for additional parking.
The tympanum above the door frame, contains the original sunken spherical triangles carved in relief with trefoils.
