UnknownSure that McBride will guide a priest firmly
Anniversary was a deeply memorable affair thanks to Mgr McBride.
Fr Sketch, letter enclosed, [not present], was let off lightly - the lapse rate at Lowestoft could frighten us to death. Pouring over plans at home is not the right use of resources.
Formally appointing him Dean of King's Lynn and also to the College of Consultors.
Smith, Peter David Gordon Rev LLB JCD (1943-2020)We had discussed Downham Market situation at the Consultors' meeting on Wednesday. No ready solution as yet but perhaps talk more fully in the New year,
Many thanks for all the work being done as parish priest, Dean and Vocations Director.
Covering letter for the Quinquennial inspection report on Church and Presbytery, North Everard St, King's Lynn.
It identifies items needing attention on Church & Presbytery in the first year.
Following an inspection visit, the company propose a crack monitoring exercise of 6-weekly measurements at monitoring points for a 12 month period. Charges for the work are proposed.
Calvert Brain & FrauloMeasurement reports attached for period of April 2005 to February 2006. Findings: no significant movement, if at all; the church leans both towards London Road and towards the corner with the bell tower; the Church floor has a significant fall from the side porch towards the road and into the corner under the bell tower. Conclusion: the church has settled and rotated and is likely to continue in the future. The building may be safely used, Poor bearing stratum is the major factor. Recommendations: consider underpinning; continue to monitor, leave the monitoring discs in place.
