Craftsmen used a crane to climb hundreds of feet to carry out refurbishment on the United Reformed Church in East Hill, Wandsworth, last month.

The work was carried out by specialist firm, the Cathedral Works Organisation, which used the crane to reach the roof of the church and fit new pinnacles - small stone spires - to the church exterior.

As well as the pinnacles, damp proofing and roof repairs were carried out as part of the work, which cost nearly £85,000.
