Image: © Richard Humphrey Taken: 16 Mar 2010
St Mary's church, Westry near March was completely gutted by a fire on Monday 15th March 2010. The following day demolition and salvage contractors David Humphrey and Son were on site preparing to remove the charred roof timbers and make the building safe so that restoration experts could access the damage. To see the church 2 years after the fire see http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/2843315 and to see the full restoration almost 4 years later see http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3800724
