Cambridge Daily News 14 Oct 1935: electric lighting in parish church

The electric light which has been installed in Trumpington church was designed by Professor Richardson and the old wrought iron gas standards and brackets have been used as far as possible. In addition there are six pendants in the west bays of the church which give the effect of flood-lighting without its disadvantages and do not break the lines of the graceful pillars. Most of the work has been done locally and E.W. Haynes was praised for wiring without cutting into the stonework. The cost of £89 has been raised by parishioners.
