Sir John Owen, Dean of Arches, Judge Michael Chancellor, Cameron QC (Chancellor)
Ecclesiastical
The vicar and churchwardens appealed a refusal of a faculty to allow them to re-orient the services within the church to face to the south from the east. Held: The Chancellor's powers under the 1961 Measure had not been not reduced by the 1991 Measure. The newer measure controlled those bodied with care and conservation of the churches, and there existed a strong presumption against any change which would damage such characteristics, and therefore a requirement for strong evidence to show the need for any such change. A compelling reason might include the pastoral wellbeing of the church. Irreversible changes were to be avoided if possible. The appeal was allowed.
