pg1-5: comments - accommodation enough for the future?; weekday chapel and sanctuary too small?; alignment of seating; more space before the altar; ambo space; cross restricted to rear wall; celebrant's chair space; empty spaces at angles to the sanctuary; no tabernacle in plan; provision for a font /baptism space?; need a reconsideration of the planning of the day chapel; location of organ; storage space; heating circuits. Need a lot more thought on use of this church and its layout.
