I'm not a religious person, but I come from a Methodist family on my mother's side.
I attended my grandmothers funeral yesterday, at one of the churches that she and my grandfather attended. The Minister talked about the contribution that they made to the church and mentioned that my grandfather acquired the alter furniture for the church. I then realised that he didn't acquire it, he made it and it all had a style that I was familiar with from other pieces of his furniture we have in the family.
I am going to arrange to go back to the church and photograph them and I am quite interested in finding out about the design influences. I would be interested to get some reference material if anyone is aware of anything. They were likely made in the 1960s.
He was a woodwork teacher and keen hobbyist, rather than a professional furniture maker.
