Description
English: Original description by J. J. McCarthy: The idea of a Church, entertained at present by most Church-builders, is, that it should be a simple, oblong room, of great or small dimensions, as the case may require, well ventilated and lighted, and furnished with an altar at one end. Figure 1 is the plan of a Church of this type. A is the nave, or, as it is usually called, the “body of the Church;” B, the sanctuary; C, the sacristy; D D, porches; 1 is the communion railing; 2 2, reserved scats within the sanctuary; 3, the pulpit, also within the sanctuary.
