A survey of Kilpeck church in Herefordshire, compiled by the antiquary George Robert Lewis and published in London and Hereford in 1842 for readers of architectural antiquities. The plates are measured line drawings of the church's ground plan, corbel heads, chevron-moulded arches, and carved doorway, with one plate of arch profiles and mouldings. A designer could draw on the Romanesque chevron bands, the carved corbel faces, and the tight linear hatching of the engraved architectural plates.
