Bexhill-on-Sea, England (First Church).—The new Christian Science church has been completed, and the first services have now been held in it. During the course of construction the Sunday school building has been used for services. The building is placed in an angular position, with the main entrance at the northeast corner of the site and a secondary entrance to the church from Cantelupe Road. The church, which seats about two hundred and fifty, with entrance foyer, is in accordance with the very latest ideas, both in the building itself and in its fittings, and has been designed to give the utmost comfort to the congregation; and particular attention has been given to its acoustic properties. The construction of the church is of brickwork, with red brick and stone facings, and rough cast with cement and local beach gravel. The roof is covered with red Staffordshire tiles. Broad classic treatment has been adopted, with boldness and simplicity as the keynote. The church floor has a slight fall down to the platform, and the pews are arranged to give the most direct view of it. The doors, pews, and paneling are of oak.—Bexhill-on-Sea Observer.
