Abstract

Antiquarians have long known that the brick tower at the north-east corner of Crondall church, Hants. (PI. ib), erected in the year 1659 to replace a recently dismantled medieval central tower that had become unsafe, may owe at least something of its appearance to that of another tower that had been built twenty years earlier beside the Thames at Battersea (PI. 1a), but which was destined to perish in the wholesale destruction of earlier fabric which preceded the building of the present Battersea church by Joseph and Richard Dixon in 1775-77.
