Roof Repair Works Begin at Stoke Damerel Church 

28/11/2025

We are delighted to announce that essential roof repair works have now begun at Stoke Damerel Church, marking a significant step in the ongoing care and preservation of our historic building. These works include renewing slipped and broken slates across the main church roof slopes, installing a completely new roof on the choir vestry, repairing and replacing gutters and downpipes and renewing the lead on the bell tower roof. Together, these improvements will help safeguard the church for generations to come.



This vital project has only been made possible thanks to the generous giving of individuals and funding bodies. We are deeply grateful to our congregation and friends for their donations, legacies and the tireless efforts of all who have supported our fundraising activities. Your commitment and enthusiasm have been at the heart of this achievement.

We are also pleased to acknowledge the significant support received from several charitable organisations. Our thanks go to the Devon Historic Churches Trust, Garfield Weston, National Churches Trust and the Wolfson Fabric Repair Grant, Benefact Trust, The Leonard Laity Stoate Charitable Trust, Bernard Sunley Foundation and the National Lottery Heritage Fund. Their contributions have made an extraordinary difference and enabled us to begin this important work in a timely manner.

Thank you to everyone who has played a part—large or small—in helping us reach this milestone. We look forward to sharing further updates as the project progresses.
