[edit] Adelaide Memorial Church
The Church of Ireland Adelaide Memorial Church of Christ the Redeemer in Myshall is a miniature of Salisbury Cathedral. Completed in 1913, it was commissioned by a London businessman, John Duguid, in memory of his daughter Constance, killed in a hunting accident, and her mother Adelaide, who died in 1903. Both are buried here.
