A Scottish stonemason is putting the finishing touches to the chair, altar and lectern to be used by Pope Benedict XVI at the Mass at Bellahouston Park.
Neil Reid, who has been building church altars for 18 years, said he was working “flat out” to make sure the project was completed in time.
The structures are made out of marble and were designed in 3D with the help of computer experts at Strathclyde University.
They are likely to be compared with the papal chair, altar and lectern (or ambo) made in wood for the Cofton Park Mass by teachers in Coventry.
