16: St. Theodore's Church, Taibach

This is a less successful line and wash picture, in my opinion. It focuses on the details of one of the side doorways of the church. I do live literally less than 100 yards from this church, and it's surely one of the biggest in the whole of Port Talbot.

In 1901 it became the mother church of the parish of St. Theodores. The building of the church was heavily subsidised by Emily Charlotte Talbot - a member of the family after whom the town is named - who inherited Margam Castle after the sudden early death of her brother Theodore.
