A ceiling design drawing for St Saviour’s Church, Colgate in Sussex by architect Gordon M Hills. The Bishop of Chichester suggested Hills to act as architect as he was considered a ‘sound fellow and a devoted servant of the church’. Whilst studying monastic ruins in Devon, Hills was Inspired by the roof of St Nectan in Hartland and included the same gold stars on a sky blue background design to decorate the roof of the Colgate chancel, in response to this.

This drawing was originally given as a present to reward a favour between friends, in place of the suggested ‘pair of Levi jeans’ by the recipient.
