[The arches at the First Methodist Church]

Panoramic photograph of the arches at the First United Methodist Church located at 800 W 5th Street in Fort Worth. There are five arches lining each side of a walkway, and the camera is looking at the side of said walkway. Each arch is attached to large, sturdy columns that have beveled edges. Small stone blocks fill in the gaps between the arch tops and the roof of the walkway. Through the first set of arches, the other set can be seen, looking identical to the first. Through both sets of arches, a small courtyard connects different entrances to the church. It is a paved courtyard with tall, skinny trees and various bushes and shrubs. A row of box hedge flanks the sides of the arches, leaving one arch clear for an entrance. The floor of the walkway is stone, with smaller, darker stones creating a large grid pattern. Vines creep up the walls on either side of the 5 arches closest to the camera. There are two short sets of stairs in the courtyard, likely leading to an entrance into the church.
