I wrote and illustrated Country Churches of New Zealand. It was published in 2002 by New Holland, Publishers and is still on sale in bookshops. The publishers have kindly agreed to me re-publishing some of the book’s images and descriptions in this blog.
ST. PAUL'S, CHELTENHAM
A sister church to St Mary’s at Beaconsfield, Clere & Swan's St Paul's in Cheltenham was built in 1904.
ST. PAUL'S, CHELTENHAM
Its once triumphant belfry still holds its head high. Sadly the church was deconsecrated for lack of support on 25 March 2001 and, at the time I made my drawing, was up for tender.
