ALMOST £27,000 has been spent repairing and renovating Wiltshire churches by the Churches Conservation Trust, according to the organisation's annual report, entitled Juxtapositions, out this week.
The largest individual sum of money is £9,923 spent on the Borbach Chantry in West Dean, near Salisbury, but £8,991 went to renovations at St Leonard's Church in Berwick St Leonard, near Tisbury.
Other churches to benefit are St Nicholas at Berwick Bassett, St Mary at Chute Forest, St John the Baptist at Inglesham, All Saints at Leigh, St Margaret of Antioch at Leigh Delamere, St Mary at Maddington, St Mary at Old Dilton, and St Mary Old Church in Wilton.
The trust has observed that English churches reveal the remarkable lives of women through sculpture and other artwork.
