More about this scene
As befitted a growing Victorian town, the spiritual needs of the new citizens were vigorously addressed. Where once there were just a single crumbling, partly medieval, parish church and a small Wesleyan Chapel built in 1841, numerous churches of numerous Christian denominations soon sprang up. We have already seen All Saints in Benhilton, and this view shows the old parish church of St Nicholas, which did not escape the church building fervour - it was entirely rebuilt in the 1860s.
