Our Churches And Chapels

""Our Churches and Chapels"" by Atticus is a comprehensive exploration of the architecture and history of religious buildings in the United Kingdom. The book is divided into chapters that cover different regions of the country, each featuring a selection of notable churches and chapels. Atticus provides detailed descriptions of the buildings, including their design, materials, and construction techniques, as well as their historical and cultural significance. He also examines the role of religion in British society and how it has shaped the development of these buildings over time. With beautiful photographs and insightful commentary, ""Our Churches and Chapels"" is an excellent resource for anyone interested in the history and architecture of religious buildings in the UK.The chapel used by the Particular-Baptists, in Vauxhall-road, Preston, has a curious history. It beats Plato's theory of transmigration; and is a modern edition of Ovid's Metamorphoses. The building was erected by Mr. George Smith (father of the late Alderman G. Smith, of this town), and he preached to it for a short time. Afterwards it was occupied by a section of Methodists connected with the ""Round Preachers."" Then it was purchased by a gentleman of the General Baptist persuasion, who let it to the late Mr. Moses Holden--a pious, astronomical person, who held forth in it for a season with characteristic force.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
