New Church at Llanmyneck, 1844. Creator: Unknown
New Church at Llanmyneck, 1844. Church in the village of Llanymynech, near Oswestry in Shropshire. The architects were...Messrs. Pearsons, of Oswestry...the funds having been raised by private subscription, aided by a grant from the Incorporated Society for Promoting the Enlargement, Building, and Repairing of Churches and Chapels. It is constructed entirely of stone, with the exception of the arches and ornamental portions, which are of moulded firebrick: the roof is covered with grey tiles. The tower is very characteristic in its details: at the apex of the roof is a round ball, whence spring the vane and weathercock. From " Illustrated London News", 1844, Vol I

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the New Church at Llanymynech in all its architectural glory. Built in 1844, this church stands proudly in the village of Llanymynech, near Oswestry in Shropshire, England. The architects responsible for this magnificent structure were Messrs. Pearsons from Oswestry. Constructed entirely of stone, with exquisite arches and ornamental details made from moulded firebrick, this church is a true testament to craftsmanship. Its grey-tiled roof adds a touch of elegance to the overall design. The tower of the New Church at Llanymynech is particularly noteworthy for its distinctive features. Atop the apex of the roof sits a round ball that serves as a base for both the vane and weathercock, adding an element of charm to this religious edifice. Funded by private subscription and aided by a grant from the Incorporated Society for Promoting Enlargement, Building, and Repairing Churches and Chapels, this church holds great significance within its community. This engraving was originally featured in "Illustrated London News" back in 1844 when it first captured attention with its remarkable beauty. Today it continues to captivate viewers with its timeless appeal. With its Romanesque influences and Victorian grandeur preserved through time on this black-and-white print created by an unknown artist or photographer (not mentioned), one cannot help but marvel at how architecture can stand as a symbol of faith throughout history.
