St. George, on Upper Church St., was built from 1761 to 1780. The churchyard contains the remains of Sir William Hillary, the founder of the R.N.L.I., and Lt. John Good Lapenotière, who brought news of the Battle of Trafalgar to the Admiralty, while in command of HMS Pickle. SC 379 755. © David Egginson. Link1. Link2. Link3.

Unitarian Church. © unitarian.co.uk. This, and many other old engravings on this website, are reproduced from the downloadable books on the Unitarian Church Headquarters website here. The books are Pictures of Unitarian Churches by Emily Sharpe (1901) and the 1914 edition of Nonconformist Church Architecture by Ronald P. Jones M.A, (Oxon), and the images are reproduced by kind permission of James Barry of Unitarian Church Headquarters. My appreciation also to Mike Berrell for his efforts in this regard.
