Our Lady and the English Martyrs, Cambridge

The more Churches I visit the more I see the Hansom name pop up . It would appear that the Hansom clans works are almost as prolific and just as impressive as the Gilbert Scott's . And this is yet another with the family brand on it forever . Edward Joseph Hansom was the architect of this one in partnership with A M Dunn and what a work of art it is . Sadly I have just read that like Gilbert Scott's son who designed the Catholic Cathedral in Norwich both came to a tragic end . So sad this is so often the case . Two men who through their work are still bringing emense pleasure to a nobody like me a 100 years later should end like this . R.I.P. the pair of you . Needless to say this is a beautiful church anybody visiting Cambridge today will be familiar with it . I have lost my thread now but please visit and find it in your heart to say a prayer for the architect .

Beautiful Gothic revival style church and active parish. Always fresh flowers everywhere.
