Footnote
Note: Born into a wealthy family in Guildford in 1816, Henry Woodyer went on to become a prominent English architect of the nineteenth century. Devoutly religious, Woodyer’s work was primarily linked to the Anglican high church movement, and he restored or designed numerous churches and church interiors throughout his career as a means of serving them and established him as a major name of the Gothic Revival.
