Description
"Woodstock, Vermont, Church Door" by Catherine Sherman.
A pair of beautiful arched doors welcome worshipers to St. James Episcopal Church in Woodstock, Vermont. Beautiful flowers in pots adorn each side of the entrances.
Established on the green in Woodstock, Vermont in 1827, St. James is a parish of the Episcopal Diocese of Vermont, a part of the worldwide Anglican Communion. The present church was built in 1907, designed in English Gothic style and constructed from local stone.
The church's architect was Ralph Adams Cram (1863-1942), born in New Hampshire, who designed the Cathedral of St. John the Divine in New York City, and several buildings at Princeton University In what came to be known as "collegiate" Gothic. He was also known as a social reformer, with a vision of a neo-medieval society. St. James is considered one of Cram's most distinguished smaller churches, with its ideal proportions and extraordinary sense of space.
Woodstock was named "The Prettiest Small Town in America" by a magazine, and it lives up to its billing with abundant flowers, rolling forested hills and charming buildings throughout the village.

Beautiful old building and door - the arched shape tells me it's a church even if the title didn't. Congratulations on the sale.
