Building: Emmanuel Episcopal Church II (Warrenton, Warren County, North Carolina)

Architectural note:
From 1855 to 1857, Jacob Holt remodeled Thomas Bragg's frame church by adding a steeple from the Village Church design in Samuel Sloan's "Model Architect." In 1927, William Lawrence Bottomley redesigned the church into brick and transformed it to the Gothic Revival style, though keeping its basic form.
