Former Verger’s house is surplice to requirements
A verger is a church caretaker and attendant and here in the shadow of St Fin Barre’s tallest 240ft spire, the verger would traditionally have carried the ceremonial staff before a bishop.
No longer needed by the church body and by Bishop Paul Colton and deemed ‘surplice to requirements’, the attractive detached town house and its site of a 0.8 of an acre is being sold prior to Christmas by public auction.
