Description
An account of the resource
<p>The Church was the first to be built in Scotland in 1844 by the Oxford Movement (High Church) and is a Grade A architectural jewel. The architect John Hayward was a colleague of William Butterfield, the chief exponent of the principles of the Oxford Movement in church design.</p><p>The interior is richly furnished, with the altar, Sedilia, pulpit and font being sculpted from Caen stone. The latter two being a gift from Queen Adelaide. The tiles on the nave floor and the blue and gold tiles on the chancel ceiling were designed and presented by Herbert Minton of Stoke-on-Trent. Butterfield designed the communion vessels and the lychgate at the entrance to the church.</p><p>The modern stations of the cross are well worth a visit on their own.</p>
