The German Evangelical Church, Halston-street, Lower-road, Islington, 1862. Creator: Unknown
The German Evangelical Church, Halston-street, Lower-road, Islington, 1862. This church, which was erected by the zealous efforts of some of the more influential sojourners from the "Fatherland, " to meet the religious wants of the German inhabitants of the northern suburb of the great metropolis, was inaugurated last week...The chief material is brick, the facings being of pale yellow, relieved with red arches; but dressings of Boxhill stone have been introduced so far as the sum placed at the architect's command permitted...The building is 54ft. long inside, exclusive of an apse over the vestries at the back, and 38ft. 6in. wide, with an open roof sustained by curved rib principals on moulded corbels, the spandrils thereto being of pierced Gothic work, which gives a very light and elegant appearance to the edifice; and there is a ceiling plastered to rake of rafters and under side of collar-beam. Comfortable seat accommodation is provided, including that in gallery in apse, for nearly 350 persons...the works have...been very satisfactorily completed by Mr. Sargeant, of Beech- street, Barbican, the builder, under the superintendence of the architect [Mr. T. W. Constantine]...The entire cost of the building will be about £1700'. From "Illustrated London News", 1862
