Description: | c1900s. This is the Church of St. Mary's-in-the-Wood, built in 1875-78 to replace the Old Chapel which was built on exactly the same site on Troy Hill. The photograph dates from Edwardian times when the church was much less obscured from the town by the trees around it and also had its original spire (this was damaged during a gale in 1952 and never repaired to its original design). The pancake bell from the Old Chapel was put in the tower here.
