St Matthew, Barnwell
History of St Matthew Cambridge
St Matthew was built 1864-6 by R R Rowe. Pevsner writes, ‘spectacular interior, the sky-lit octagon being faced with vigorous panelling – a kind of pitch-pine version of Ely.’
For an essay on the involvement of Rev. William J Beamont in the St Matthew’s and the Cambridge School of Art see:
