Talk:Church of All Saints, Orpington

Copyright issues

The body of this article comes mostly verbatim from this site. An excerpt from the site reads:

There was a church at Orpington in the early C11, when Eadsige, a priest and royal chaplain, gave land to Christ Church cathedral, Canterbury. [...] In the C19, Anglo-Saxon long and short work was said to have been visible in the SE corner of the nave before the restoration, and a Saxon sundial was found during the work in 1957. The nave was rebuilt or extended in the late C12 and has a Transitional W door. The chancel was rebuilt in the C13, and the NE tower was also added in the early C13. The NE vestry was added at an unknown date, but may also be C13.

At the time of comment, the body of the article reads:

Here was a church at Orpington in the early C11. In the C19, Anglo-Saxon long and short work to have been visible in the SE corner of the nave before the restoration, and a Saxon sundial was found during the work in 1957. In 1771 the tower was damaged in a storm and reduced in height. The upper part caught fire in 1809 and the present top of the tower is probably of that date. In line with Orpingtons dramatic growth as a suburb in the mid C20, the church was hugely extended and reoriented in 1957 with the construction of the new church to designs by Geddes Hyslop, relegating the old church effectively to becoming an ante-chapel.

Since this article is just a few hours old, I am assuming good faith and hoping that the creator @DuselDizel would fix this copyright violation. Otherwise it would qualify for speedy deletion.
