The New Chapel of St. Johns College, Cambridge, 1869. This building, erected from the designs of Mr. G. G. Scott, R.A., will probably take the second place in ecclesiastical architecture at Cambridge, after the chapel of Kings College...It is in the Early Decorated style, which was the original style of the old chapel...The tracery of the various windows is varied and rich, and the carving which embellishes their exterior and interior is well executed, and has a most pleasing effect. The ceiling is a coved one of wood...The transepts are vaulted with stone...A large quantity of coloured marble has been worked up in the building...The stallwork is handsome, the east end of the choir being furnished with those removed from the old chapel...The different stained-glass windows have been the gift of several benefactors...The total cost of the chapel, exclusive of the organ and painted windows, is estimated to exceed ?53,000. The builders are Messrs. Jackson and Shaw. From "Illustrated London News", 1869.
