Christ Church, Bhagulpore. Photographer: Unknown
- Scope & Content:
-
Genre: Architectural Photography
General view of the church, mounted as a carte-de-visite. A modern note on the reverse of the mount reads: 'About 1900. As rebuilt (without tower or spire) after the earthquake of 1897. (East End). The handwriting above [ie the original caption] is that of Miss H. Robinson of Barari, Church Secretary till her death about 1948.' The relationship of this print to the album is unclear. The envelope in which it is contained records that it was presented to the India Office by Rev. Richard S. Chalk (Chaplain of Bhagalpur 1937-51) in 1878. It further notes that Hettie Robinson was the eldest daughter of James Robinson, a civil engineer of Barari.
