HS 1546 - Letter paper of St. Mary Magdalen, Taunton, Somerset, published by John Harwood, 26 Fenchurch Street, London, with plate number 510 on 28th November 1842
Folded sheet of writing paper with ms text by Charles Jermingham: “I incline to think the tower of this church to be the most beautiful Gothic edifice ‘sui generis’ in the world: uniting height and lightness and symmetry, and taper delicacy. The tower of Malines Cathedral is more lofty & massive but lacks the wondrous elegance of St. Mary Magdalene’s. That of Boston perhaps rivals it, but appears to me more ponderous”.
