Proposals for revamp of Onchan church

An Island church could get some well needed repairs, if planners give their approval.

An application has been put forward to improve the spire, tower and west walls of St Peter's Church on Church Road in Onchan.

If given the go ahead, it's hoped any work would address cracks appearing above and below windows in the west-facing walls whilst a 2019 inspection report concluded the tower and spire were considered the most vulnerable part of the structure.

Those behind the proposals are aiming to acquire registered building consent to carry out the project.
