St Mary the Virgin, Warmington

Sir George Gilbert Scott restored Warmington Church between 1874 and 1877 for Lord Carysfort, with his friend Benjamin Ferrey restoring the chancel and Scott the nave and fine western spire. Here Ferrey’s mediocrity is in striking contrast to Scott’s flair. The work was carried out by John Thompson of Peterborough. Scott also designed nave seats, a pulpit, lectern and chancel screen (Drawings Collection, p. 75, RIBA) and the north aisle screen was restored at the expense of the Earl of Carysfort.
