New Glass – Holy Trinity Cambridge

Another glass project this time at Holy Trinity church situated in the centre of Cambridge which is a Grade II* medieval church. This was another project working in conjunction with Coulson Building Group and Purcell Architects who are also based in the centre of Cambridge in an office in which I was based in a previous life.

The brief to Purcell was to provide a warmer and more vibrant welcome and to give greater flexibility in both worship and hospitality.

The key part of the project was this trio of leaded lights:

Holy Trinity has a vibrant congregation and schedule of regular events.

Changes were also made to allow extraction vents to be placed in the top section of leaded lights – as you see these were not treated very kindly by the HVAC workers but the cames were gently straightened and the third picture shows the finished article.
