Taking Stock is a project of the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of England and Wales. It provides an architectural and historical assessment of churches in regular use for public worship. These are mainly diocesan parish churches, but the project also includes churches owned by religious orders and institutions, where these are in regular public use and where the owners have agreed to participate in the project.
The purpose of Taking Stock is to provide an architectural and historical audit of Catholic churches in England and Wales. It is intended to be an aid to dioceses, parishes, statutory authorities and the general public, so that the heritage significance of buildings may be given due weight when proposals for change come forward.
