During the first half of 1897 Mackintosh worked on a new church and church hall at Queen's Cross. He designed
a single preaching space with one gallery at the east end and another over two bays of the south passage aisle.
The galleries were cantilevered out. From the outside the church presents a powerful, if not wholly coherent composition of forms. The south west tower modelled on a unfinished medieval church tower at Merriott, has a stair turret almost growing out of it. Overall Queen's Cross Church is best seen as a treasury of details rather than as a cohesive whole. |
