This photograph of Luton's parish church was taken in the Edwardian period. St.Mary's church is the largest in Bedfordshire. The building dates from the 14th and 15th centuries, though there was an earlier place of worship that was built around 931. The original church was founded by King Athelstan as an act of thanksgiving for victory over the Danes. The present church was founded on a new site in the early 12th century by Robert, Earl of Gloucester and the building was consecrated in 1137. Much of the church was rebuilt in the perpendicular style during the 15th century. A major restoration took place in the 1860's and extended in 1968. © Digital Photographic Images TECHNICAL DATA Date: c.1910 Source: Real Photo Postcard Maximum Size: 3422x2226 Pixels Maximum File Size: 966 Kb Format: JPEG
