Editing Regency architecture (section)

==Churches==
Until the [[Church Building Act 1818]], church building had been at a very low ebb for over 50 years. The Act allocated some public money for new churches required to reflect changes in population, and a commission to allocate it.  Building of [[Commissioners' church]]es gathered pace in the 1820s, and continued until the 1850s. The early churches, falling into the Regency period, show a high proportion of [[Gothic Revival]] buildings, along with the classically inspired.  Strict [[Greek Revival]] buildings were mixed with those continuing the modified [[Baroque architecture|Baroque]] and Roman [[Neoclassical architecture|Neoclassical]] traditions.<ref>Summerson, 212–221; Strong, 503–504</ref>
