Description:The Church of St. Edward was extensively restored by George Gilbert Scott Junior in 1863-4. It still retains many medieval features, including the Early English north arcade, the Perpendicular south arcade and tower, and the Decorated chancel. This watercolour shows the church before Scott's restoration.
This is one of a series of watercolours of all the churches in Lichfield Diocese in Staffordshire, painted by Miss Theodosia Hinckes and Mrs Rebecca Moore (wife of the Archdeacon of Stafford for Lichfield Cathedral) for Lichfield Cathedral between 1857 and 1861.
