Anderson Church - NSC Bose Road


Standing at the corner of NSC Bose Road and Linghi Chetty Street is Anderson Church -- a pure white building with a nice steeple and bell tower. The church was built in 1859 as the religious edifice of the Madras Christian College School, which was once located in its vicinity. The church was named after John Anderson, a Scottish missionary and founder of the school. There is a plaque at the entrance to the church. Regular service is held on Sundays. The picture of the church was shot on a week day, in the afternoon. I was lucky to get a blue sky with a little bit of cloud cover. I was impressed with the bell in the church and hence decided to post that picture too.
