1897 – Knox Presbyterian Church, Woodstock, Ontario, Canada

“The church is built of dark purple Toronto bricks trimmed with brown stone. The window openings are of moulded brown bricks. The auditorium is of amphitheatrical form, with the roof of single span. The school at the rear is polygonal in form, with radiating class rooms. The work was carried out under the superintendence of Mr. Alexander White, of Woodstock, and cost about $45,000.”
Canadian Architect and Builder, December 1897

Finished externally in brick and stone, this Richardsonian Romanesque-style church was constructed in 1896-97. It has a beautiful galleried interior with a magnificent organ as the central focal point. Still in use today and well preserved.
