Long Street Methodist Church, The "Angel" Pulpit

Image: © David Dixon Taken: 18 Sep 2015

Compared to many Victorian churches, there is very little decoration in this church. The internal styling is plain and simple. The little decoration that Edgar Wood used is to a very high standard and is reserved for important positions such as the pulpit, the lectern, and the font. This photograph shows the roses and angel sculpture on the pulpit. The angel is the work of sculptor Thomas Stirling Lee who was also responsible for eight of the twelve relief panels on the exterior walls of the famous St George’s Hall in Liverpool.
