The "St. Bridget Church", item # 3993 is located in Cornwall Bridge, Connecticut. America experienced a church building boom between 1825 and 1860. The Gothic Revival style, as exemplified in the design of St. Bridget, began around 1840 and died out shortly following the Civil War. An Englishman, A.W. Pugin, started the Gothic Revival, which strove for a more "Christian" architecture of the Middle Ages. Typical elements of Gothic Revival include pointed-arch doors, windows and a squared tower with a belfry. Introduced in April, 1999 and retired in December 2003.
