C1838. This watercolour sketch by John N. Rhodes (1809 - 1842) shows the Nave of Leeds Parish Church with the Altar in the distance. In the foreground the font can be seen standing on a raised dias. It is octagonal in shape and a padlock is carved on each face symbolising baptism as being the key to Christianity. This view of the Church shows the haphazard way the galleries had been erected, almost cutting through the fourteenth century clustered columns. There were far too many pews and pens of varying shapes and sizes. The galleries were accessed by dark stairways and the Chancel arch against which the organ of 1714 was positioned, was almost walled up. The watercolour records the old Church before the re-building which commenced in 1838. The artist was a patron at this time. (more small images & descriptions)
