| Résumé : | On 4 October 1842, Richard Mant, the Church of Ireland bishop of Down and Connor, presided over the first meeting of the Down and Connor Church of Architecture Society in the Clerical Rooms in central Belfast. The scholarly Mant doubtless was in his element as he introduced the initiative dedicated to promoting discussion about historical and contemporary aspects of Anglican church architecture. The Ulster Times, the city's self-proclaimed newspaper of the Church of Ireland, welcomed the new society, arguing that it was good to have "correct views" on these matters and hoping that features like arched roofs, Gothic windows and lengthened aisles could be maintained so that the Anglican churches could be distinguished from their Dissenting counterparts |
