Katedra w Lincoln

Kościół Katedralny Błogosławionej Dziewicy Marii (ang. The Cathedral Church of the Blessed Virgin Mary of Lincoln) – katedra kościoła anglikańskiego w Lincoln w Anglii. Poświęcona została w 1092 roku. W 1185 zniszczona przez trzęsienie ziemi i następnie odbudowana. Od 1311 roku przez 238 lat katedra ta była najwyższą budowlą na świecie. Jej wysokość wynosiła 160 m. Przewyższała o 13,4 m dotychczasową najwyższą budowlę świata, jaką była Piramida Cheopsa, zbudowaną cztery tysiące lat wcześniej (zakładając datę powstania przyjętą przez egiptologów). Dla okresu po zawaleniu się iglicy środkowej wieży w 1549 roku, za najwyższą budowlę uważa się, zależnie od źródła, kościół św. Olafa w Tallinnie lub kościół Mariacki w Stralsundzie. Historia Tuż po utworzeniu w Lincoln biskupstwa w 1072 r. przystąpiono do wznoszenia pierwszej świątyni. Budowa trwała 20 lat, a konsekracja świątyni odbyła się 9 maja 1092 roku. 50 lat później wskutek pożaru zniszczeniu uległ drewniany strop. Odbudowana katedra w 1195 r. została ponownie uszkodzona w wyniku silnego trzęsienia ziemi odczuwanego w całej środkowej Anglii. Z inicjatywy nowego biskupa w krótkim czasie naprawiono szkody i rozbudowano sanktuarium. W 1549 r. środkowa wieża kościoła z iglicą została zniszczona podczas silnej burzy. Od okresu reformacji budynek należał do Kościoła anglikańskiego. W czasie II wojny światowej w Lincoln stacjonowały brytyjskie siły powietrzne. Budowla była dobrym punktem orientacyjnym dla lotników. W murach świątyni można odnaleźć ołtarze poświęcone pilotom RAF-u. Architektura Katedra ma charakterystyczny dla gotyku angielskiego układ, w którym długi korpus główny przecinają dwa transepty, z centralnie umieszczoną czworoboczną wieżą. Zachodnia fasada jest szeroka, a w jej centrum widnieją romańskie portale otoczone rzędami gotyckich ślepych arkad. Całość łączą dwie bliźniacze, czworoboczne wieże. Niektóre elementy filarów oraz kolumny w arkadach empor i oknach nawy głównej wykonano z ciemnego marmuru. Główną oś wnętrza zaznacza, umieszczone w sklepieniu, długie żebro szczytowe z odchodzącymi od niego wachlarzami bocznych łuków. W ramionach zachodniego transeptu znajdują się witrażowe rozety o misternych maswerkach. Dalej na wschód znajduje się chór, mieszczący stale z wyraźnie większym tronem biskupim. Chór jest otoczony przegrodą dekorowaną ślepymi arkadami. W tej części sanktuarium sklepienie ma niespotykany gdzie indziej układ przesuniętych żeber, nazywany szalonym sklepieniem. Za prezbiterium znajduje się kaplica z grobowcami i witrażami w oknach. Przy katedrze funkcjonuje biblioteka, zawierająca manuskrypty i książki powstałe tuż po wynalezieniu druku przez Gutenberga. W jej wnętrzu zachowały się zabytkowe meble, w tym średniowieczne ławy biblioteczne. Przypisy Bibliografia The cathedral church of Lincoln. Albert Frank Kendrick, 1872-1954.
Catedral de Lincoln

A Catedral de Lincoln (em inglês: Lincoln Cathedral; oficialmente denominada The Cathedral Church of the Blessed Virgin Mary of Lincoln, ou apenas St. Mary's Cathedral) é uma histórica catedral anglicana localizada em Lincoln, na Inglaterra e sede do Bispo de Lincoln, da Igreja Anglicana. Ela foi o edifício mais alto do mundo por pouco mais de dois séculos (1311–1549). A ponta da torre central foi destruída em 1549 e não mais reconstruída. História Remigius de Fécamp, primeiro bispo de Lincoln, ordenou a construção da catedral em 1072. Antes disso, a Igreja de Santa Maria em Lincoln era uma igreja-mãe, mas não uma catedral, e a sede da diocese era a Abadia de Dorchester, em Dorchester-on-Thames, Oxfordshire. A primeira Catedral de Lincoln, construída no lugar onde se encontra atualmente, foi finalizada em 1092. Em 1141, a cobertura de madeira foi destruída em um incêndio. O bispo Alexandre reconstruiu e expandiu a catedral, mas ela foi novamente destruída por um terremoto cerca de quarenta anos mais tarde, em 1185. Após o terremoto, um novo bispo foi nomeado. O bispo era Hugo de Avalon (assim chamado por ter nascido em Avalon, na França); ele iniciou um programa de reconstrução e expansão maciça. A catedral é a terceira mais extensa da Grã-Bretanha (compreendendo a planta baixa), depois da Catedral de São Paulo e da Catedral de Iorque, com medidas de 148 por 83 metros. Ela é o maior edifício de Lincolnshire e até 1549 sua torre era considerada a mais alta torre medieval da Europa. Entretanto, a altura exata tem sido tema de debates. É considerada a segunda igreja mais alta do mundo, com 160 metros de altura. Existem treze sinos na torre sudoeste, dois na torre noroeste e cinco na torre central. O acervo da catedral alberga uma das quatro cópias originais da Magna Carta ainda existentes, atualmente exposta no Castelo de Lincoln. Órgão O órgão é um dos mais refinados exemplos das obras de Henry Willis, datado de 1898 (este foi seu último órgão de catedral antes de sua morte, em 1901). Organistas
Katedralen i Lincoln

Lincolns katedral eller The Cathedral Church of the Blessed Virgin Mary of Lincoln är en katedral i Lincoln i östra England. Den är byggd delvis (de nedre delarna) i romansk stil (specialstilen normandisk stil) och i övrigt i gotisk stil, delvis specialinriktningen inom gotisk stil perpendikulärstilen (eller engelsk sengotik). Katedralen överträffade Cheopspyramiden som världens högsta byggnad, när den färdigställdes på 1300-talet. I katedralen förvaras ett exemplar av Magna Carta. Historia Katedralen började byggas år 1072 på uppdrag av biskop Remigus. Katedralen har varit utsatt för flera olyckor och förstörelse genom åren. År 1124 drabbades den av en stor brand och 1185 förstördes stora delar av katedralen i en jordbävning. Endast västfasaden, som fortfarande finns kvar, var oskadad. Året därpå beslutades att katedralen skulle återuppbyggas. Fram till 1300-talet återuppbyggdes och utökades katedralen. År 1237 rasade katedralens torn, vilket tros ha berott på byggets experimentella karaktär. År 1256 påbörjades byggandet av koret och 1295 uppfördes korsgången. År 1311 ersattes det raserade tornet med ett nytt torn och en spira som gjorde katedralen till världens högsta byggnad. 1548 rasade spiran under en storm och orsakade stor skada på transeptets tak. Under engelska inbördeskriget förstördes delar av katedralen vid Oliver Cromwells belägring av Lincoln. Under 1700- och 1800-talen gjordes flera ombyggnader av katedralen. 1898 installerades katedralens stora orgel. Under 1900- och 2000-talet har det gjorts flera restaureringar. 2015 gavs ett stort ekonomiskt anslag för att konservera katedralens arkitektur och förbättra omgivningarna för besökare. I populärkultur 2005 filmades slutscenerna i filmen Da Vinci-koden i katedralen. 2007 filmades scener till filmen Young Victoria i katedralen.

Лінкольнський собор

Кафедральна церква діви Марії або Лінкольнський кафедра́льний собо́р (англ. The Cathedral Church of the Blessed Virgin Mary of Lincoln) — головний храм Лінкольнської єпархії Англіканської церкви у Лінкольні, Велика Британія. Будівництво Будівництво церков у Лінкольні розпочалося ще за англо-саксонських королів. У 20-х роках VII століття за наказом Полінія, єпископа Йоркського у місті було зведено першу дерев'яну церкву. Після захоплення Англії норманами була запроваджена єпископська кафедра у Лінкольні. Перший її очільник Ремігій Фекампський наказав збудувати кафедральний собор на місці зруйнованої церкви Полінія. У 1092 році будівництво було завершено. Це була споруда у романському стилі, нагадувала скоріше укріплення, а не храм. Втім у 1141 році цей собор сильно постраждав під час пожежі, стала звисати покрівля, обвалилася частина стін. За єпископа Олександра почалося будівництво нового собору, який вже не мав функції фортеці. Під час громадянської війни між Матильдою та Стефаном Блуаським собор сильно постраждав. Остаточно був зруйнований у 1185 році внаслідок землетрусу. У 1188 році новий єпископ Х'юго почав роботи зі зведення нового собору. Він мав повністю готичний стиль. У 1192–1210 роках було зведено хор та східний трансепт. Згодом побудовано стрілчасті арки, легкі контрфорси та великі вікна. У 1192–1330 роках монтуються вітражі. У 1255 році відбудовано головну башту, після того як у 1237 році вона завалилася. З 1307 до 1311 року тривали роботи зі зведення великого шпилю. Він сягав 159,7 м, завдяки цьому Лінкольнський собор був найвищим у світі до 1549 року, коли частина шпилю обвалилася й стала 103 м, у 1807 році шпиль зменшився до 83 м. Цю висоту він має й дотепер. У 1398 році на замовлення Джона Гонта, герцога Ланкастерського, у соборі було зведено приватну каплицю для його родини. Історія Із самого заснування Лінкольнський собор належав римо-католицькій церкві. За часів Реформації в Англії він став протестантською церквою. Архітектура Загальна висота становить 83 м, довжина — 157 м. Має 3 шпилі на трьох баштах. Башти мають усього 20 дзвонів. Північна та південна сторона мають по вікну у вигляді троянди. Вікно північної сторони зветься «Око декана», а південної — «Око єпископа».

The Etches Collection

The Etches Collection (also known as the Museum of Jurassic Marine Life) is an independent fossil museum located in the village of Kimmeridge, Dorset, England. It is based on the lifetime collection of Steve Etches, a fossil hunter for whom some of his finds have been named, from the local area on the Jurassic Coast, a SSSI and World Heritage Site, especially around Kimmeridge Bay and the Kimmeridge Ledges. Building The museum building was opened in 2016 at a cost of £5 million to house a collection of over 2,000 fossil specimens so that they would remain accessible beyond the lifetime of Steve Etches. Collection Etches had been collecting for over 30 years prior to the museum opening, and in that time he amassed a collection of fossils of international scientific importance that form the basis of the collection. The collection includes examples of ammonite eggs and fossils from the Upper Jurassic Kimmeridge Clay Formation including Thalassodraco etchesi. In 2026, Big Sara, an Allosaurus skeleton, was lent to the collection to be on display for the next two years. Big Sara is currently the only real dinosaur skeleton on public display in Dorset, and is additionally the only real allosaurus skeleton on display in the United Kingdom.

The Churchill Arms

The Churchill Arms is a public house at 119 Kensington Church Street on the corner with Campden Street, Notting Hill, London. There has been a pub on the site since 1824 when it opened under the name of the "Bedford Arms" but by 1826 it was renamed to "The Churchill Arms". It is known for its exuberant floral displays, and extravagant Christmas displays in the winter, and has been described as London's most colourful pub. History In popular culture it was alleged it was called the "Church-on-the-Hill", and received its current name after the Second World War. This is refuted by references to it being called the Churchill Arms throughout the 19th Century and it was referenced as such in 1914 in the Official Gazette. In the 1930s it had its ground floor elevation added with good stained glass whilst the Victorian stuccoed upper story is original. Current features The Churchill Arms is managed by Fuller's and has a Winston Churchill interior theme. The Churchill Arms claims to have been the first London pub with a Thai restaurant, having served such food since the early 1990s or earlier. The Thai restaurant is decorated with live flowers and plants. The pub is decorated with all types of things associated with Winston Churchill, and falsely claims that Churchill made wartime broadcasts from the venue. Churchill's grandparents, the 7th Duke of Marlborough and Lady Frances Anne Emily Vane, were patrons of the pub in the 19th century.

St Anns (Harrow)

St. Anns is a shopping centre in Harrow town centre in Greater London, England. It has two entrances, one on College Road opposite Harrow-on-the-Hill station and another on the pedestrianised St Anns Road. The centre was opened in 1987 and currently covers 280,000 square feet of retail space. Like the St Anns Road street it is on, the centre does not officially use an apostrophe for "Ann". History The shopping centre was officially opened by Diana, Princess of Wales on 18 November 1987. Many buildings were demolished to make way for the centre, including Heathfield School for Girls, which moved to Pinner in 1982, and the old Greenhill School – the site of which is now occupied by Marks & Spencer. The steps at the St Anns Road entrance were removed in the mid-2010s to improve accessibility, which included repaving of the road. Stores St Anns is home to over 40 high street brands including H&M, Primark, M&S, Boots and WHSmith, along with a dedicated food court on the second floor which includes a Burger King, Pizza Hut, KFC, Treatz Desert Palour and Subway. The large Primark store was originally British Home Stores (BHS) until the retailer's collapse in 2016. Primark moved from its original smaller location at the centre which was originally a C&A store before it was bought by Primark following C&A's departure from the British market. Following the Primark move, a Lidl supermarket took its place in 2019. See also St George's Shopping Centre, Harrow References
Longford Cinema

Longford Cinema is a former cinema in Stretford, Manchester. It is also known as The Longford Essoldo, The Top Rank Club, and "The Cash Register". Designed by the architect Henry Elder, it was the height of Art Deco fashion when it was opened by the Mayor of Stretford on 12 October 1936. The unusual "cash register" shaped frontage was intended to symbolise the business aspect of show business. The Longford's debut feature was Tudor Rose starring Nova Pilbeam. The building incorporated many modern features, such as sound-proofing and under-seat heating, and it was also the first cinema in Britain to make use of concealed neon lighting. It had a seating capacity of 1,400 in the stalls and 600 in the circle, with a further 146 seats in the café area. The foyer featured large murals by Frederick Harry Baines depicting contemporary cinema scenes. When built, the cinema had a short pedestrian approach to the facade, but this was removed when the A56 was widened. During the Second World War the building was used for concerts, including one given by a young Julie Andrews. It also played host to the Hallé Orchestra after the orchestra's own home, the Free Trade Hall, was bombed and severely damaged during the Manchester Blitz of 1940. The orchestra performed twelve concerts at the cinema in the 1942–3 season and more under Barbirolli the following season. After a change of ownership in 1950, the cinema was renamed the Stretford Essoldo. It continued to operate as a cinema until 1965, when it was converted into a bingo hall, which it remained until its closure in 1995. The building was purchased by a new owner in January 1997 but has remained unused since then. It was designated a Grade II listed building in 1994. References
