    Donald Findlay, ‘Centralised Plans for Anglican Churches in Georgian England’, The Georgian Group Report & Jounal, 1989, pp. 66–74 TEXT © THE AUTHORS 1989 CENTRALISED PLANS FOR ANGLICAN CHURCHES IN GEORGIAN ENGLAND Donald Findlay laims are often made for the extreme rarity of churches built to centralised plans in Georgian England, and it is time that such proud pronouncements were put to the test. Certainly, following Wren’s commendation of his own basilican design for St James’ CPiccadilly, which he generally used for his larger churches, the standard form for Georgian churches was a rectangle, with or without galleries, to which a west tower or portico (or both) and an eastern chancel might be added. This article is not concerned with churches of quasi- cruciform plan, such as Shobdon, Great Witley or Stanford upon Terne, which have transepts used for family pews or to house monuments, but rather with those in which the liturgical demands for a space focused on a pulpit and an eastern altar have been met within the terms of ‘the perennial fascination which the perfection of a central plan held for architects’. There are seven categories of centralised plan, namely rectangles with projections from the middle of each side, Greek cross plans, squares, octagons, circles, ellipses and those which fall readily into none of these types. Some forerunners may be found amongst the ingenious plans for the smaller of Wren’s City churches, rebuilt after the Great Fire of 1666 on the cramped sites of mediaeval predecessors which elicited from Wren’s lively mind a number of solutions remarkable for their inventiveness.
