A MID-VICTORIAN BLUE JOHN-MOUNTED LACQUERED-BRASS LECTERN

The chapel at Wynyard Park seems to have been the most frequently
remodeled part of the house during the 19th and early 20th centuries.
There is reference in the Londonderry papers work being carried out on
the chapel at Wynyard in 1871 and to ‘alterations’ being carried out to
both the chapel and Londonderry House by one James Brooks, architect,
in 1881-83. It is most likely that it was during one of these phases that this
lectern was introduced along with the closely related brass railing, which
remains in situ in the chapel today.
