St Cuby's Church, Cuby

The Church of St Cuby is a parish church which lies on the north-eastern outskirts of Tregony, Cornwall, England. It dates from the 12th century and was initially a chapel of ease to the parish church of St James at Tregony. After St James's Church was washed away by the changing course of the River Fal in the 16th century, St Cuby's Church became the parish church. The church gave its name to Cuby, a civil parish which existed between 1866 and 2021 covering the rural parts of the ancient parish which lay outside Tregony's borough boundaries. Since 1967 the church has been designated a Grade I listed building. It is an active Anglican parish church in the diocese of Truro, the archdeaconry of Cornwall and the deanery of Pydar. Its benefice is combined with that of Cornelly. History The church was dedicated to St. Cuby, a Welsh saint, around the 6th century CE. When the Church of St James at Tregony was submerged by the River Fal and subsequently abandoned in around 1540, the Church of St. Cuby became the parish church for Tregony. The current structure is a mixture of 12th-century, 14th-century and 15th-century architecture: some of the north side of the church and the tower is 14th century while the nave and south wall have some surviving 15th-century features. The church underwent major reconstruction in the 17th century, being lengthened and rebuilt in 1828 and then extensively restored in 1899. Some of the medieval masonry still exists on the north side and the tower (of two stages) is of the 14th century. In the south aisle is an inscribed stone of the 6th or 7th century (Nonnita Ercilini Rigati [...]tris Fili Ercilini). The church in Norman times belonged to the alien priory at Tregony but in 1278 ownership passed to Merton Priory in Surrey. External features In the churchyard are two Grade II listed buildings: one is a mid 19th century chest tomb by Julef of Ladock that is 7 metres south of the east end of the church and the other a 19th-century granite coffin on a plinth which is situated 2 metres north of the east end of the church. Notable burial William Hennah, first lieutenant of HMS Mars is buried at Cuby Parish Church. His ship was part of the British fleet under Lord Nelson at the Battle of Trafalgar. References

St Probus and St Grace's Church, Probus

St Probus and St Grace's Church, Probus, is a Grade I listed parish church in the Church of England Diocese of Truro in Probus, Cornwall. History There was a monastery here before the Norman Conquest of 1066, which continued to exist until the reign of Henry I. King Henry gave the church of Probus to Exeter Cathedral and the clergy of Probus thereafter were a dean and five canons (the deanery was abolished in 1268 and the canonries in 1549). The first vicar was instituted in 1312; the parish had dependent chapelries at Cornelly and Merther. The church was built mainly in the 15th century but the tower was still under construction in 1523. In the church is the brass of John Wulvedon and his wife, 1512. This tower is the highest among Cornish parish churches and resembles those of Somerset rather than other Cornish towers. The stone was brought from the quarry by the parishioners in their carts led by John Tregian of Golden; however the rival squire Nicholas Carminow of Trenowth (John's brother-in-law) made great efforts to obstruct the work. The church was restored in 1850 by George Edmund Street. The restoration was prompted by an outbreak of dry rot. The ceilings had been covered at some time with plaster, and the pillars with whitewash. The church was filled with high pews made of deal. The arch into the tower was blocked up with a gallery, shutting out the principal west window. All of these defects were rectified and it reopened on 28 October 1851. The tower was restored between 1922 and 1923 by J. Dawson and Sons, Steeplejacks. In the early years of the 19th century the rare custom of turning to the East for the Doxology at the conclusion of the recitation of each Psalm, particularly by those in choir, was observed in Probus church. Parish status The church is in a benefice with St Crida's Church, Creed St Nun's Church, Grampound St Ladoca's Church, Ladock St Hermes' Church, St Erme Organ The organ dates from 1884 and was built by Hele & Co. A specification of the organ can be found on the National Pipe Organ Register. References

St Peter's Church, Brooke, Rutland

St Peter's Church is a Church of England parish church in Brooke, Rutland. It is a Grade I listed building. History The church has a carved doorway which rises to a pointed arch, which wasn't introduced to England until after the church was built. It probably dates from the Norman era due to the Norman carving on the moulding. Also dating from this period is the font and the nave arcade. The tower, dating from the 13th century, has wider top stages than the bottom stages, an unusual feature in churches. The inside of the church has Elizabethan features as well as Norman. The Elizabethan furnishings remain unaltered. As a result, the church was included in John Betjeman's Top 100 Churches in England. There are panelled screens and box pews and more oak furnishings. These date from the 16th century. The nave is separated by a 16th-century wooden screen from the tower. Situated on the northern wall of the tower is a carved face which was probably used as a candle holder. The church has a tomb to Charles Noel who was the son of Brooke House builder, Sir Andrew Noel. Most of the Noel family's tombs can be found in Exton where they later moved. An unusual feature of the church is that the northern door is hung on fishbone-shaped iron hinges. There is a stone bench near the base of the northern and western sides of the northern aisle. It was used by elderly and sick worshippers. The chancel floor is home to many grave slabs. These include a gravestone to Endymion Cannynge who was a captain of horse to King Charles I. There is also a memorial to Henry Rawlings with four of his five wives. There is a 1611 Judas Bible in a glass display case on the wall. The church appeared in the 2005 film adaptation of Pride and Prejudice.

St Andrew's Church, Stoke Dry

St Andrew's Church is a church in Stoke Dry, Rutland. It is a Grade I listed building. History The church is made up of a chancel, south chapel, north porch with parvis above, nave, and two aisles. The parvis was built to be a chamber for the priest. The Gunpowder Plot is said ("an implausible rumour") to have been planned here but the manor house at Ashby St Ledgers, Northamptonshire also claims to be the site. Stoke Dry's manor was held by the Digby family in the early 17th century. Sir Everard Digby was one of the Gunpowder plotters and was executed for his role. The chapel and north wall of the chancel have Norman stonework. The chancel arch contains Norman carvings on the shafts either side of the arch; on the south shaft is a man pulling on a bell-rope. A 15th-century carved screen is positioned either side of the chancel and nave. It doesn't fit well so might have been moved here from a different church. Lying on the 1694 bier, beside the Norman font, is a Bible and prayer book dating from 1856. There are fragments of stone memorials one thought to be that of Francis Clarke of Stoke Dry (d. 1435). The chancel has a table tomb to Kenelm Digby (died 1590) and his family. Beside the tomb is a memorial inscribed to a Dorothy Stevens. There is also a table tomb to a different Everard Digby (died 1540). There is also a monument to Jaquetta, the wife of Everard Digby who died at the 1461 Battle of Towton. The south wall of the Digby Chapel has 13th-century wall paintings depicting the death of Edmund the Martyr and Jesus being carried by Saint Christopher. The organ dates from 1810 and was made by Lincoln of London. St Andrew's suffered from heritage crime in 2018 and is now on the Heritage at Risk Register. Repair works began in Autumn 2021.

St Andrew's Church, Whissendine

St Andrew's Church is a church in Whissendine, Rutland. It is a Grade I listed building. History The church is one of the largest in Rutland and has a perpendicular tower. The earliest parts of the church date from the 13th century. The tower is 14th century, and evidence suggests that it could have been used as a watchtower. The 14th-century font was defaced at some point. The clerestory was built in the 15th century but was so heavy it caused the nave pillars to shift. Strengthening arches were built to stop the building from collapsing. A statue to St Barbara, by Edwin Lutyens stands in the north aisle. The early 16th-century screen to the Lady Chapel was brought here from the old chapel of St John's College, Cambridge during the 1867 – 1870 restoration by George Gilbert Scott who had recently built the new college chapel. A wall memorial to Lady Abigail Sherard is in the chancel. It was found in several different pieces and had to be put together again. References

St. Winnow (St Winnow)

St. Winnow ist eine anglikanische Pfarrkirche der Church of England in St Winnow, einer kleinen Ortschaft unmittelbar am Mündungsarm des River Fowey südlich von Lostwithiel in Cornwall. Die Kirche ist seit 1964 als Kulturdenkmal der Kategorie Grade I eingestuft. Geschichte Das Patrozinium der Kirche ist nicht geklärt. Sie ist entweder dem bretonischen Heiligen Guénolé (Englisch Winwaloe) oder dem heiligen Winoc geweiht. Das Guénolé-Patrozinium ist wahrscheinlicher, da durch die Missionstätigkeit von Mönchen der Abtei von Landévennec dem Heiligen eine Reihe von Kirchen in der Region geweiht sind. Die Kirche geht möglicherweise auf einen Vorgängerbau des 7. Jahrhunderts zurück, der mit dem heiligen Winoc assoziiert wird. In der Nordwand des Langhauses, im nördlichen Querhaus sowie im Chor haben sich Spuren eines späteren normannischen Gotteshauses erhalten, das teilweise im 13. Jahrhundert umgebaut wurde. Der Turm, das südliche Seitenschiff sowie die Vorhalle entstanden vermutlich im 15. Jahrhundert. Teile des nördlichen Langhauses, des Querhauses und des Chores wurden im späten 19. Jahrhundert neu aufgemauert und dem Chor das große Ostfenster eingefügt. Literatur Nicholas Orme: English Church Dedications: With a Survey of Cornwall and Devon. Exeter 1996, S. 124.
