S. Feock, near Truro.—This church is now restored, and is an interesting and encouraging proof of what may be done in almost every parish. Like most village churches in this county, this was also in a very dilapidated state. Part of the south wall, and the east, and part of the north walls, and the north transept, have been carefully and strongly rebuilt after the original design, and the whole roof relaid. Internally an unsightly gallery has been removed, and the square pues destroyed, and in their places open sittings have been substituted. These have sufficient space to admit of kneeling, and are surmounted with an uniform moulded capping, and rise about three feet in height from the floor. By this arrangement there has been an increase of 120 sittings. The whitewash has been scraped from the pillars, arches, and walls, and the latter washed with stone colour, and ornamented with appropriate texts rubricated. Most of these were discovered when the whitewash was removed, and have been restored. A new pulpit, richly panelled, reading-pue, and altar-rails of oak, have been erected, and a stained window, by Beer of Exeter, has been put up over the altar. [We are sorry to hear of the reading-pue, altar-rails, and texts.—Ed.]
