Légende

Algarkirk Fen Church, 1871. '...the Church of Algarkirk [is] an almost perfect specimen of village church architecture in its exterior, and in its interior probably unsurpassed by anything of its kind in England. All that the skill and taste of Mr. Crace in mural decoration, and of Mr. Hardman and Messrs. Clayton and Bell in stained glass, could achieve, has been lavished upon this gem of country churches. The whole has been done at the sole cost of the Rector, the Rev. Basil Beridge...The complete restoration of the church at Algarkirk was effected under the direction of the late Mr. Carpenter...The church of Algarkirk Fen is dedicated to St. John the Baptist, and supplies a want which had long been felt, as the distance of twelve miles from the parish church practically deprived the inhabitants of any benefit from it'. From "Illustrated London News", 1871.
