The Episcopalian Church of St. Mary, Carden-Place, Aberdeen, 1864. Creator: Unknown
The Episcopalian Church of St. Mary, Carden-Place, Aberdeen, 1864. 'Our Engraving shows its external design, the merit of which belongs chiefly to the Rev. F. G. Lee who is an accomplished amateur architect; though he had the able professional assistance of Mr. Alexander Ellis. The building is principally in the middle-pointed style of Gothic architecture, with some of the details partaking of Italian and Scotch character...Externally, on the north and south sides, the large gables of the transepts, flanked on each side by projecting buttresses crowned by massive square pinnacles, mark the divisions of the church - the nave running westward, and the chancel to the east. The nave is divided into five bays by the clerestory windows, which are alternately circular and coupled lancets - three circular and two pairs of lancets on each side...The transepts externally present each a large circular window, 12 ft. in diameter, with four lancets underneath. The masonry, is rubble-granite, but the parts are marked by the use of bands of red and white freestone and black granite. These stones are also alternated in the formation of the circular and other windows and principal details throughout...The interior will accommodate between 700 and 800 persons'. From "Illustrated London News", 1864

EDITORS COMMENTS
**A Testament to Faith: The Episcopalian Church of St. Mary, Carden-Place, Aberdeen (1864)**
This exquisite photograph print captures the majestic beauty of The Episcopalian Church of St. Mary, Carden-Place, Aberdeen in its prime - a masterpiece that has stood the test of time since 1864. Designed by Rev. F.G. Lee and built with professional assistance from Mr. Alexander Ellis, this stunning example of middle-pointed Gothic architecture is adorned with Italian and Scottish influences.
The exterior design features large gables on either side, flanked by projecting buttresses topped with imposing square pinnacles - a testament to the church's grandeur. The nave runs westward, while the chancel stretches eastward, divided by clerestory windows that alternate between circular and coupled lancets. Two pairs of lancets flank each bay on both sides.
The transepts boast large circular windows with four smaller lancet openings underneath - a striking feature that adds to the church's architectural charm. The masonry is constructed from rubble-granite, punctuated by bands of red and white freestone and black granite, which also adorn the windows and principal details throughout.
This magnificent structure can accommodate between 700-800 worshippers within its walls, making it a true sanctuary for those who seek solace in faith. This photograph print is not only an architectural marvel but also a poignant reminder of the enduring power of spirituality.
