Alabaster reredos at St Mary the Virgin, Welford, Northants, 1888

Saturday 13.10.1888 p8 Worcestershire Chronicle

SCULPTURE. – A reredos which is to be erected in Welford Church, Northamptonshire, to the memory of the late vicar, has just been completed
by Mr. W. Forsyth, sculptor, of the Tything, from the design of Mr. A. Hill Parker, architect, of Worcester. It is a handsome and artistic
piece of work in the late Decorated style, with a free use of sculptured foliage. The reredos, which is divided into three compartments, is mainly
executed in alabaster. The centre compartment is covered by a richly decorated canopy, the front gable being filled in with tracery and a plain
cross, and finished with foliated crockets and finial. The side compartments are sub-divided by traceried arches, which are divided again by small
buttresses supported on pendant carved caps. The canopy and arches rest upon four rouge griotte moulded shafts, having carved caps and bases,
and the re-table or shelf is of similar marble, lighter in colour. The panels at the back are filled in with a selected dark alabaster as the instruction
furnished to the architect debarred the admission of figure sculpture.
