These are the 9 Catholic churches in the United Kingdom that will receive government funding for new roofs
First source report
Nine Catholic churches in the United Kingdom have been awarded government funding to replace their roofs.
In the Diocese of Hexham and Newcastle, Our Lady and St Columba will receive £1 million for a new roof. The Grade II listed church was built in the 1950s and features a design that combines Art Deco, Scandinavian, and Modern Perpendicular Gothic elements. Its copper-roofed bell tower is a local landmark.
The Archdiocese of Liverpool will also receive grants for two churches. St Matthew in Clubmoor, designed by F.X. Velarde, was awarded £810,000. St Anthony of Egypt on Scotland Road, an early Gothic Revival building dating to 1833, will receive £775,228.
