This is a sepia drawing from 1841 by Thomas Peploe Wood of the old church of St Peter ad Vincula (St Peter in Chains) in Stoke. The church was actually demolished in 1829, although ruined arches following the pattern of the original design were reconstructed on the original site (the graveyard) by Stoke Architect Charles Lynam in 1881. He found the original stones used as a lining for the Boothern Mill watercourse
