St. Nicholas Church, Durham - interior, 1858. Creator: Murray
St. Nicholas Church, Durham - interior, 1858. This church...[has] undergone a thorough repair, and been in part rebuilt...[to the] design of Mr. Pritchett, of Darlington...The patroness, Lady Frances Anne, Marchioness of Londonderry, placed £1000 at the disposal of the committee for restoring the chancel; and the committee then determined to rebuild, finding the structure in a much worse condition than when the restoration was first contemplated...It contains 650 sittings, all of which are to be cushioned and unappropriated. The style adopted throughout is the Late Decorated or Middle Pointed. The stone used...internally, [is] Caen. The chancel is separated from its aisles by handsome stone screens erected by the Durham Water Company in memory of their vice-chairman, Ralph Dixon, Esq. All the caps of the piers are carved, as well as the pulpit, desk, and font; and it is intended, when funds permit, to erect the reredos...The chancel-stalls have carved finials. The building is warmed by Haden's patent warm-air apparatus. The whole has been carried out under the superintendence of Mr. Pritchett, the architect, at a total outlay of nearly £5000. The mason and carver was Mr. W. E. Jackson; and the joiner, Mr. Robson'. From "Illustrated London News", 1858

EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning photograph captures the interior of St. Nicholas' Church in Durham, England, as it appeared in 1858 following a comprehensive restoration and rebuilding project. The church, which had fallen into disrepair, underwent a thorough renovation under the guidance of architect Mr. Pritchett of Darlington. The patroness, Lady Frances Anne, Marchioness of Londonderry, generously donated £1000 towards the restoration efforts, and the committee decided to rebuild the chancel due to its deteriorated state. The newly restored church boasts 650 sittings, all of which were to be cushioned and unappropriated. The interior design adheres to the Late Decorated or Middle Pointed style, with Caen stone used extensively throughout. The chancel is distinguished by elegant stone screens, erected by the Durham Water Company in memory of their vice-chairman, Ralph Dixon, Esq. The intricately carved caps of the piers, pulpit, desk, and font add to the church's grandeur. The chancel-stalls feature carved finials, and the building is equipped with Haden's patent warm-air apparatus to ensure a comfortable environment for worshippers. The project, overseen by Mr. Pritchett and executed by mason and carver Mr. W. E. Jackson and joiner Mr. Robson, was completed at a total cost of nearly £5000. This photograph offers a glimpse into the meticulous restoration and rebuilding process that transformed St. Nicholas' Church into a beautiful and reverent place of worship.
