Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: St Margaret's church - colourful hassocks After Hopton's St Margaret's church burnt down in 1865 > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1717781 a new church > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1718921 was built in 1866 a short distance to the west of the ruin. The church's dedication is also to St Margaret. The architect was Samuel Sanders Teulon (1812-73), who also partially rebuilt the church of St John in Rushford and remodelled St Mary's church in Brettenham > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1698910. St Margaret's church in Hopton is Teulon's major work in Norfolk.
The church is of a cruciform design with the tower being situated in the centre of the building. The north transept houses the pipe organ with its elaborately decorated organ case > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1718982. Opposite it, in the south transept, is the Julian chapel > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1718971 which is dedicated to Mother Julian of Norwich (1342-ca.1416). The east window > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1718953 was designed by Edward Burne-Jones and made by William Morris in memory of Charles Orde (d 1880). Two other chancel windows - they depict Hope and Charity > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1718963 and Humility and Faith - are also by Burne-Jones/Morris. Fragments from the original memorial window, which was destroyed by bombs during the war, can be seen reset in some of the other windows > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1718989. The church furniture dates from the 1860s. |
