If the memorial has been moved, please indicate why
The church closed for worship in 2010 and was converted into a cafe and restaurant in 2013, but closed down after the 2020/21 Covid pandemic. The company which carried out the conversion also had an office within the building. After its closure the company occupied the entire space, and created showrooms and work spaces for its own use.
A stipulation of the sale was that the windows should not be removed.
