Shimla Church, 1885

Photograph of Christ Church, Simla (Shimla), from the 'Crofton Collection: Topographical and architectural views mostly in India', taken by an unknown photographer c. 1885.

Christ Church was designed by Colonel J.T. Boileau and took 13 years to built (1844-1857). John Lockwood Kipling designed the fresco surrounding the chancel window, which no longer remains.
