FOUNDATION STONE

FOUNDATION STONE

Cornerstone laid by Queen Adelaide; built during 1839 – 1844 (to include photos of church being built); The original estimated cost of church was £ 8,000, but as William Scamp explained in his reports, considerable unforeseen extra expenses had to be met, replica rolex so the final figure was around £ 20,000 which Queen Adelaide met from her own resources. It was hoped that the consecration could take place in 1843, but this proved to be impossible, and it was not until 1st November 1844 that the consecration service was held.
