LIBRARY AND INFORMATION RESOURCE
Lambeth Palace Library holds sources on the history of the Church of England, including church architecture, notably the archive of the Incorporated Church Building Society, 1818-1982, which provided funds for the building and enlargement of Anglican churches throughout England and Wales.
Following the Library’s merger with the Church of England Record Centre in 2020, its collections relating to architecture were enriched by records of the contents of over 1,500 individual churches, compiled by the NADFAS Church Recorders; archival material about church buildings, including chancels and parsonage houses plans, notebooks and papers of Canon Clarke and of Gordon Barnes as well as detailed survey files on 16,000 parish churches, many containing guide-books, postcards and photographs.
Selected items from the collections are available through the online image database: images.lambethpalacelibrary.org.uk
