St Edmundsbury Cathedral

After several years of intensive work, the enlargement of this historic Cathedral has finally been completed, with help from Anglia Lead's team of skilled local craftsmen.

Project Overview

Client: Morgan Ashurst (Formerly Bluestone)

Location: St Edmundsbury Cathedral, Bury St Edmunds, Suffolk.

Materials: Sand cast Lead and Cast lead fascia and mouldings

Money from the Millennium Commission has enabled this historic Cathedral to reach final completion. The Gothic-style lantern tower was raised a further 100 feet to 150 feet and Anglia Lead was closely involved in the new cloisters, which were also added. Our craftsmen took a mould of the feature work from the originals and used it to create the decorative lead gutters which now adorn the building.
