Altars and Reredos we have restored for clients,  or built to our design.

fire damage to reredos

Oak reredos designed by Jeanette according to budget available; built by David to replace previous fire-damaged .The Altar top was also replaced. Saint Mary's R.C. Church Oswaldtwistle.

As part of the ongoing restoration of St. Marys, we refurbished the Benedictine reredos We also restored the stations of the cross and several statues in the main body of the church

This Marian Retable originally by Giles Gilbert Scott, had suffered from an unfavourable makeover during the 1970's. 

The ornate lattice work to the central apse was re-instated and the Greek Ionic pediment marbled to match that of the altar below.

We worked in close collaboration with the Vicar of Ss. Peter and Paul A.C. church in Rishton to fulfil his vision of the refurbishment for this stone reredos.

We designed the stencilled Gold emblems inside each apse according to his direction,  and applied a colour scheme chosen by our client. 

The vacant chapel of ease at Huncoat had suffered damage

to the reredos tabernacle and altar.  The Dean requested that we replace the altar top and refurbish the reredos to re-purpose as a Marian side chapel. The altar and reredos were installed at a new location .

We worked closely with the Vicar at Ascension A.C. Church Torrisholme in renovating this wooden Victorian side altar, previously known as the Craven family altar.

Jeanette designed a new decorative scheme for its re-dedication to the Holy Souls, and enhance its Architectural forms.
