Restoration of our rose window, original to our church in 1892, started on October 20 and is being carried out by local artistry and architectural restoration specialists Swiatek Studios (www.swiatekstudios.com).

Mullion and frame restoration will be carried out where necessary and the window will be recalked, sealed and painted.

Missing or broken panes of the nave windows on Swinburne St will also receive repair/replacement and repainting. Replacement pieces will be ventilated as necessary so as not to cause condensation or additional oxidation of the leaded windows.
