Description: | The print appears in Robert Mudie, Hampshire. 1838, volume 2, opposite p. 291. The accompanying text suggests that Mudie was not impressed: "The situation of the church is very beautiful; though the building itself has little to recommend it, being a compound of different styles of architecture."
The church dates from about 1175, although most of what we can see in the print -chancel, tower, south aisle and porch- is late thirteenth or early fourteenth century, partly restored. | Format: | image/jpeg | License: | http://www.sopse.org.uk/ixbin/hixclient.exe?a=query&p=gateway&f=generic_sitetext%2ehtm&_IXFIRST_=1&_IXMAXHITS_=1&cms_con_core_subtype%3acms_con_text_what=copyright&%3acms_sys_group=%22sopse%22 | Subjects: | building picturesque William Gilpin church St John | Temporal: | start=1838-01-01; | Source: | Sense of place SE | Creator: | J Shury and Son; (Copied by: Gilmour, D E; Robbins, James) | Identifier: | http://www.sopse.org.uk/ixbin/hixclient.... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
