Demolition starts at Littleover Methodist Church

Rev Ian Worral, Minister of Littleover Methodist Church started the demolition process of the old church hall, with members of the church and G F Tomlinson Building Limited to signal the official commencement on site of the construction works.

G F Tomlinson Building Limited have been awarded the project to demolition the existing church hall and to construct a new 2 storey modern annexe which will incorporate a new hall, meetings rooms and a sports hall facility. The work will also incorporate the refurbishment of the existing church which dates back to 1958.

The new church premises are being rebuilt to better serve the local community accommodating people of all age groups. During the construction period the majority of activities will be taking place off site at an alternative location, however the church office will continue to operate at Constable Drive.

Sunday morning services have been relocated to the Junior School hall at Derby High School from 2nd September. Access is via the Pastures Hill main entrance. Evening services are being held at The Haven in Heatherton.

Roy Collis, Managing Director of G F Tomlinson Building Limited said, ‘G F Tomlinson Building Limited are delighted to be associated with this community project. Being a Derby based contractor we have a vested interest in delivering a quality product and service that will ultimately provide improved facilities for the local community.’

The project is due to be completed in November 2008 and will be eagerly awaited by the church and surrounding residents.
