“…[It] is reminiscent of an Austrian village church." 57 Certainly, Williams-Ellis's drawings do not reveal any willingness on his part to cower to the natural elements of the area; one of his most beautiful drawings of the front façade of the building includes a romanticised landscape deftly rendered in watercolours which, simply, does not exist. 58 On the other hand, a school inspector at the time of the building's completion found it "an entirely new, imposing fabric beautifully conceived and equipped."…”

“…58 On the other hand, a school inspector at the time of the building's completion found it "an entirely new, imposing fabric beautifully conceived and equipped." 59 In 1972, Girvan believed the building should be retained as important as architectural heritage of the region, 60 and some historians argue this is Williams-Ellis's best building in Northern Ireland, including Brett.

One of the most overlooked and yet unique connections between the architectural cultures of Ireland and Great Britain in the early twentieth century is the built work in Northern Ireland of London-based architect Clough Williams-Ellis. His housing, schools and church in Country Antrim represent a significant portion his architectural legacy. This paper re-examines previous scholarship on Williams-Ellis's Northern Irish projects through an analysis of multiple sources: original drawings held in the Royal Institute of British Architects' (RIBA) drawing collection at the Victoria and Albert Museum, London; primary materials held in Williams-Ellis's archive in the National Library of Wales, Aberystwyth and Williams-Ellis's own prolific writing. The piece relates the Northern Irish projects to one another, scrutinises Williams-Ellis's own practice within the Northern Irish context and situates the significance of this body of work in the larger, ongoing discussion of 20 th century architecture in Western Europe.
