It’s an absolute pleasure to be here on the occasion of the reopening of the Rose Historic Chapel, which has undergone a meticulous restoration process, involving a blend of modern repair techniques with traditional stone masonry as you can see. The quality of the craftsmanship and attention to detail in the repair and restoration work mean this chapel can now be enjoyed by many generations to come.
