Usually I am not a big fan of the most of the 1920/30s take on Gothic Revival, but this particular altar is incredible: it is a work of a renowned Scottish architect, Sir Ninian Comper, and it is a marvel (the altar was completed in the 1937).
The four angels of the Apocalypse on the canopy bear a remarkable resemblance to Jean Cocteau’s art, which makes the whole scene even more dynamic.
