A faculty was granted for the installation of a new sound system, including the installation of narrow speakers on the pillars of the church, attached by fixings in the mortar of the pillars. The DAC did not recommend the proposed works; the committee has a standard and consistent policy of recommending that speakers be set higher up than was here proposed, to minimise visual impact. The chancellor attended the church for a demonstration of the proposed system and the current system, which made use of higher level, less visually obvious speakers, and concluded that the proposed system produced a distinctly greater quality of sound.
