Church of the Holy Trinity, Building at Westminster, 1850. 'The Church of the Holy Trinity is designed in what is called the early or geometrical decorated style which prevailed at the time of Edward the First and Second...The site of the Church is a triangular piece of ground, close to Vauxhall Bridge...Bath stone is used for all the dressings, and Kentish rag for the body of the walls. The chancel and porches are lined on the inside with Bath stone, which will add materially to the effect; and it would be very desirable that the whole Church should be finished in the same way...The cost of the Church will be about £10,000...The architect is Mr. John L. Pearson, of Delahay-street, Westminster, and the builders are Messrs. Smith and Appleford, of Pimlico'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850.
