New Church Furniture

Since 2006, Saint Aidan's has commissioned several pieces of new furniture for the Church. We are so very fortunate to have as one of the 'church family', Terry Ward, a craftsman of great popular and critical acclaim. The great benefit of having one craftsman making several pieces is the sense of unity that is brought to the new of the Sanctuary. Below you can see the pieces made for us by Terry and also some of the pictures that were taken while these beautiful addtions to our Church were being made.
