St. John's Anglican Church, Peggys Cove, Nova Scotia

It’s Sunday and so I thought a church may be in order today. I did like the sense of geometric shape here along with the colours. Unfortunately I never got to see the wider side front nor the inside.
Peggys Cove has just one church, but it's quite pretty and interesting. It was built in 1893-1894 in a style called Carpenter Gothic. It has a steep red roof and creamy white vertical board and batten exterior walls punctured by typically Gothic lancet windows. It was designated a Heritage Site in 1993.

Best at full screen. Enjoy the day.
