F. Works for the Church of England

These are few in number, and only one of his two churches – that at Kingsdown (near Sittingbourne) in Kent [F(a)2] – survives; the remainder of the work in this category consists of often relatively minor alterations or additions to existing buildings by other architects.

a) Complete Churches

1 1853–54: Madresfield, Worcs. – St. Mary the Virgin (for Lord Beauchamp): demolished in 1866 owing to foundational problems; some fittings (including the E. & W. windows, font, pulpit & reredos) were re-used in the new church of 1867 designed by F Preedy.
2 1864–65: Kingsdown (near Sittingbourne), Kent – St. Catherine (for Lord Kingsdown): the parsonage is not by EW Pugin, but is by W Burn – see C Blaker, TP, Vol. 1(7), 1998/9.

b) Alterations/additions etc

1 1853–56: Beverley, Yorks. – Oversees completion of AWN Pugin's restoration at St Mary's Church: comprises completion of the W. front, addition of flying buttresses to S. transept & erection of a weather-vane (AWN Pugin's last design) on SW. pinnacle of the tower.
2 1855–59: West Tofts, Norfolk – Oversees the completion of AWN Pugin's chancel in St. Mary's Church: chantry chapel on one side, vestry with organ loft above on the other.
