Exclusive: Winchester Cathedral loses its heads

Exclusive: Winchester Cathedral loses its heads

We are hearing from multiple sources that Dean Catherine Ogle, the senior executive of troubled Winchester Cathedral, has taken time off work indefinitely ‘with stress’. Insiders say she is unlikely to return.

Also off with, apparently, a stress related condition is Precentor Andy Trenier.

People have walked out recently when either has attempted to preach. Others remained seated during Communion.

Expect further updates before Evensong.

Both Ogle and Trenier are implicated in the enforced departure of Andrew Lumsden as Director of Music and the subsequent cover-up over alleged Non Discolsure Agreements. Search ‘Winchester’ on Slippedisc.com for the whole sorry saga.
