Upton-on-Severn
1878 – Church of S.S. Peter & Paul, Upton-on-Severn, Worcestershire
Architect: Arthur W. Blomfield
Perspective view published in The Building News, November 29th 1878. “This church is being built to meet the increasing requirements of the place — the old church, erected about 120 years ago, being too small, and not capable of satisfactory enlargement. The new church is Second Pointed in character. The walls are faced with Bourton-hill stone, with quoins of the same — the window dressings, &c., being of Bath stone. It will be seated for about 750 adults. The total cost will be about £9,500. The contractor is Mr. Thomas Collins, of Tewkesbury. Mr. A.W. Blomfield is the architect.”
