More about this scene
This reredos was new when the picture was taken. It was dedicated by the Bishop of Winchester on 10 August (St Lawrence's Day) 1898, the money having been raised as part of Queen Victoria's Diamond Jubilee celebrations. The design was by Sir Arthur Blomfield, and it was carved by Thomas Nicholls of Kennington.

Joined the choir in February 1948, sang a solo 25th December 1952 (Carols). Last sang as a treble 14th February 1954, from then on as a bass. Revered the altar at every service.
The organist was Mr.Thrower, and we had a fine choir, among them Mr.Bridger, Mr.Stoodley my brother and I. Happy days.
