new for old for new for old

Today I have been investigating potential furnishing changes at cragg... as we move towards a more concrete discussion about reordering the church.
We have quite an anomaly at Cragg in that we have the original font for the church. It's being used as a bird bath! We wonder if "modernising" the church might involve bringing the old back. We also want to remove the late victorian additions to restore the early victorian / late georgian box. We might take out the organ, a late victorian addition.
To make it modern we need to go back to an older state. An aweful lot of modernisation is a turning back of the clock.
I am now sat in another very boring meeting about safeguarding children... waiting for it to finish.
