Photograph of the Mission Prefab Church at Avoncroft, UK - Colorchallenge Saturday Indigo

in #colorchallenge7 years ago (edited)

This is my photograph of the lovely Mission Church at the Avoncroft Museum in Bromsgrove. Apologies in advance, the photo quality isn't great - the whites of the sky are blown out on an overcast day (Hey, i'm a painter, not a photographer!) But I couldn't resist posting this for the beautiful blue colours that have begun to turn and fade as the corrugated iron corrodes.

The church was built in 1891 and cost a total of £70, from a JC Humphries publication that wouldn't be too dissimilar from modern shopping catalogues. It was moved to Bromsgrove from Whitbourne as a historical building, wherein all of the original features remain. The church was made to hold 100 people, and I've included a picture of the interior below from the Avoncroft website.
