## Description

A section of the Western boundary wall at St Giles Church, Great Coxwell has collapsed and needs to be re-built\. The wall is retaining approximately 2\.5m of churchyard and abuts a neighbouring property to the West, known as Downsview\. All works to the outer face of the wall will need to be conducted from the neighbouring landowner's property, with mechanical excavation from the churchyard side, to expose and then shore up foundations The wall is compromised in 2 separate areas: a suspect area of bulging and significant mortar loss \(Section 3\) and an area of localised collapse \(known as Section 5\)\. Both areas require remedial works and re-pointing\. The churchyard is closed under the 1972 Local Government Act and is under the care and maintenance of Vale of White Horse District Council\. The Council has been given faculty permission to carry out the works, from the Diocese of Oxford\. It is confirmed that in this instance, Ecclesiastical consent under the 2010 Ecclesiastical Act, supersedes Planning or Listed Building consent and further licences are not required for the purposes of these remedials\. The Council seeks to obtain costs for contractual remedial works\. Pricing should be based on the structural and material scope of works and calculations provided as supporting documents to this brief\.
