ADERELICT church in South Gloucestershire, built in 1741, is slowly being brought back to life as part of a £1 million project. Whitfield Tabernacle in Kingswood has been derelict for nearly three decades due to complicated planning issues and viability concerns.

The building, which is widely regarded as the birthplace of the Methodist movement, was left ruined by a fire in 2000. For years uncertainty surrounded the future of the historic building, until 2019 when it was announced that some of the funding from the West of England Combined Authority (Weca) earmarked to transform Kingswood High Street would be used to kickstart a scheme which could see Whitfield Tabernacle brought back into use.
