NEW chapel is to be built at Ripon College Cuddesdon.
The new building will be part of a major programme of expansion at the college.
Other proposed developments include new teaching and residential facilities for students and the Sisters of St John the Baptist community of nuns, based in Begbroke, will be moving in when the work is complete. The work is being carried out by Niall Mclaughlin Architects.
College Principal, Revd Canon Prof. Martyn Percy, said: ‘The Chapel is the heart of any worshipping community. This vision for a new place of worship – with its use of light, space, glass, wood and stone – really captures our hope for the church and the world, and for the shaping of religious and spiritual life.
‘ The Chapel forms part of an exciting development plan that will also provide additional accommodation and teaching space for the College as well as closer links with significant local Christian communities.’ Picture: Niall Mclaughlin Architects. |
