Around 180 people attended our champagne launch at the Hatton Gallery at the end of February. A string quartet played and a giant screen displayed images from the Project, while the guests arrived. Pauline McCormack, Project Director, introduced the SINE Project and Church Plans Online. John Grundy of Tyne Tees Television then spoke on the importance of structures for the understanding of the history and development of the region.

Guests enjoy champagne before the proceedings start.

John Grundy gives his talk. The background image, from the SINE website, is of cranes on the Hudson Dock in Sunderland. It was taken by Stafford Linsley in 1972.

Launch attendees listen to John Grundy's talk.

The catering staff get to grips with the website, assisted by Jessica Kemp of the SINE Project.
