Church of the Holy Trinity, Building at Westminster, 1850. Creator: Unknown
Church of the Holy Trinity, Building at Westminster, 1850. The Church of the Holy Trinity is designed in what is called the early or geometrical decorated style which prevailed at the time of Edward the First and Second...The site of the Church is a triangular piece of ground, close to Vauxhall Bridge...Bath stone is used for all the dressings, and Kentish rag for the body of the walls. The chancel and porches are lined on the inside with Bath stone, which will add materially to the effect; and it would be very desirable that the whole Church should be finished in the same way...The cost of the Church will be about £10, 000...The architect is Mr. John L. Pearson, of Delahay-street, Westminster, and the builders are Messrs. Smith and Appleford, of Pimlico'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print depicts the Church of the Holy Trinity in Westminster, London, as it appeared in 1850. The Church, designed in the early or geometrical decorated style, is situated on a triangular piece of land near Vauxhall Bridge. The exterior of the building is primarily constructed from Bath stone for the dressings and Kentish rag for the body of the walls. The chancel and porches are lined with Bath stone, which significantly enhances the overall effect. The cost of constructing the Church was estimated to be around £10,000. John L. Pearson, an architect from Delahay-street in Westminster, was responsible for the design of this architectural masterpiece. Messrs. Smith and Appleford, builders from Pimlico, were entrusted with bringing Pearson's vision to life. The Church of the Holy Trinity is an excellent example of the neo-Gothic and Victorian Gothic architectural styles that were popular during the 19th century. The spire and spires of the Church add to its grandeur and make it a striking addition to the Westminster skyline. This print was published in the Illustrated London News in 1850, providing a glimpse into the past and showcasing the intricacies of this architectural marvel. The Church of the Holy Trinity remains an essential part of the religious and historical landscape of Westminster, London, and continues to attract visitors from around the world.
