Three more additional rows of seats on both sides of the Chapel have been installed.

As it happened, our builder suddenly had opportunity to construct the two sets of additional rows when a gap in his schedule opened up. He had already cast the seat bases needed.
We were then able to negotiate a change in our funding priorities to match. This is more-or-less the limit of what can be done with restoring the seating while part of the Chapel remains on private property.
Postscript: word gets around fast !

Here a group from Balnarring, Flinders and Red Hill pause for quiet reflection – while seated on the restored bench seats.
Our thanks to Alison for capturing the moment.
