EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white wood engraving, published in the Illustrated London News in 1857, showcases the newly constructed New Church of St. John the Baptist in Isleworth, Hounslow, London, England. The Gothic, Perpendicular-style church, designed by architect James Deason, Esq., is situated just a few hundred yards from the Isleworth station of the Windsor Railway, enhancing its striking appearance. To the left of the church stands the recently completed Parsonage House, funded solely by John Farnell, Esq. of Isleworth. The house harmoniously complements the church's design. To the right of the view, a cluster of twelve almshouses is being erected and endowed by the same benevolent gentleman. Together, these structures create a charming and picturesque group, reflecting the charitable and religious spirit of the Victorian era. This engraving, a testament to the architectural prowess of the time, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the beauty and intricacy of the Gothic Revival period in Britain.
