St James and St Anne's Church, Alfington

St James' and St Anne's Church is a Church of England church in Alfington, Devon, England. It was built in 1849 at the expense of Sir John Taylor Coleridge and designed by William Butterfield. The church became Grade II listed in 1952. Historic England describes it as a "relatively early" work from Butterfield and "modest" compared to his more elaborate designs from the same period, such as All Saints' Church in London. The exterior is considered "unusual in its austerity and singular treatment of the belfry". History St James' and St Anne's Church was erected in 1849 and maintained at the expense of Sir John Taylor Coleridge as a chapel-of-ease for the residents of Alfington, who had previously been required to travel to the parish church of Ottery St Mary. Coleridge commissioned William Butterfield to design the church, who at the time was working on the restoration of the parish church at Ottery St Mary. Coleridge would also have a parsonage and school constructed for the village, both of which were designed by Butterfield. A burial ground was added to the church in 1876 and consecrated on 29 September that year, followed by the addition of a vestry in 1882. Alfington became its own parish in 1882, which prompted Coleridge's son to hand the church over to the Ecclesiastical Commissioners, who agreed to provide an endowment of £150 a year. A consecration service was performed on 29 September 1882 by the Bishop of Exeter, Frederick Temple, with the assistance of the Bishop of Ely, James Woodford. Architecture The church is built in an Early English style using roughcast rendered brick. The roof is of clay tiles and features a bell turret. The inside, which was built to accommodate approximately 200 persons, contains a nave, chancel, south-west porch and vestry. The octagonal font is of Devonshire marble. There are a number of memorials to the Coleridge family inside the church, while another noteworthy feature is the east window, designed by Augustus Pugin and installed in 1852 by Hardman & Co. of Birmingham. A lychgate to the church grounds is dated 1897. References

St Paul's Church, Broadoak

St Paul's Church is a Church of England church in Broadoak, Dorset, England. It was designed by Thomas Talbot Bury and built in 1865–66. The church has been a Grade II listed building since 1984. History St Paul's was built as a chapel of ease to the parish church of St John the Baptist in Symondsbury. It was the second chapel of ease to be built in the parish, following St Peter's at Eype, which opened in 1865. Owing to the many outlying settlements and neighbourhoods which were a considerable distance from St John's, the rector of the parish, Rev. Henry Rawlinson, sought to improve church accommodation in the parish. The area of Broakoak was approximately three miles from the parish church, with the nearest church being at Salwayash. Plans for the church were drawn up by Thomas Talbot Bury of London and a plot of land purchased by Rev. Rawlinson from the trustees of the Bridport Charity. In addition to Broadoak, the church was sited to serve the hamlets of Henwood, Mowerbury, Dinhay, Atram and Hogboar. In addition to donations and subscriptions, a grant of £20 was also received by the Salisbury Diocesan Church Building Society towards its construction. The foundation stone was laid by Mrs. Sarah Anne Rawlinson, wife of the rector, on 23 March 1865, in the presence of a large number of local clergy and residents. The stone was to have been laid by Mrs. Fooks of Mowerbury, but illness prevented her attendance, and her chosen replacement, Miss Legg of Allington was also unable to attend due to the death of a relative. Mr. William Gibbs of Bradpole was hired as the builder, with Mr. Richard Cornick of Bridport as the contractor, and Mr. W. K. Brown of Bridport handling the plumbing, glazing and woodwork. The completed church was consecrated on 25 April 1866 by the Bishop of Salisbury, the Right Rev. Walter Kerr Hamilton. Architecture St Paul's is built of local red sandstone sourced from Stoke Knapp, near Beaminster, with Hamstone used for the quoins and dressings, and slate on the roof. It was designed in the Early English style to accommodate 120 persons, and is made up of a nave and chancel. The west end contains the entrance, an oak door with ornamental ironwork, and a bell turret with a decorated cross finial. The arched braces of the open roof rest on corbels of Hamstone, and the chancel arch is also of the same material. The pulpit, lectern and reading desk are of oak, and the open seats of stained deal. The north and south sides of the building each have four lancet windows, filled with tinted cathedral glass. The east end has a three-lancet window, with three small circular windows above, and a single lancet window on each side of the chancel. The west end has a two-lancet window with circular and trefoil windows above. The east and west windows, and those on either side of the chancel, were gifted and painted by Mrs. Rawlinson.

St Andrew's Church, Bridport

St Andrew's Church is a former Church of England church in Bridport, Dorset, England. It was built in 1858–60 to the designs of Thomas Talbot Bury and has been a Grade II listed building since 1975. History St Andrew's was built in the parish of Bradpole, specifically to serve the outlying part of the village and the growing population within the north-east region of Bridport. As Bradpole's Holy Trinity Church was an inconvenient distance for some residents and often filled to capacity for services, a chapel of ease was proposed for the area. Through the efforts of the vicar of the parish, Rev. A. Broadley, the cost of the church was raised by private subscription, including a £500 donation from Miss Strong, and grants from the Diocesan Church Building Society and Incorporated Society in London. The tender of Messrs Chick and Son of Beaminster was accepted for £1,079 and the foundation stone laid by the Bishop of Salisbury, Rev. Walter Kerr Hamilton, on 21 August 1858. The masonry work was undertaken by Mr. Gibbs of Bradpole. St Andrew's was consecrated by the Bishop of Salisbury on 27 September 1860. It continued to serve the parish until the church was made redundant on 1 August 1978 and sold to a private owner for light industrial use as a workshop and store. Architecture St Andrew's is built of coursed and squared limestone, sourced from quarries in Powerstock, and ashlar dressings of Ham stone, in an Early English style. It has a roof of blue slate, with a bellcote containing three openings. Built to accommodate 300 persons, the interior is made up of a five-bay nave, measuring 80 by 26 feet, a two-bay chancel, measuring 24 by 18 feet, a lean-to vestry and organ chamber. The church's original furnishings included benches of stained deal, a carved communion table of oak, donated by the Bishop of Salisbury, and a pulpit and font of Ham stone. The chancel's fittings were carved from oak, with the floor laid with encaustic tiles from Mintons and Poole potteries. The mural decorations of the chancel were created by Mrs. Broadley and friends. The church's stained glass windows were created by Heaton and Butler of London. Another stained glass window was installed in 1868, created by Heaton, Butler and Bayne. In their 2002 inspection of the interior, Historic England recorded that "extensive" alterations and removals had taken place. The font had been removed but other features, including the pulpit and altar, remained. Some stained glass remained in the chancel, although other examples had either been donated to the Stained Glass Museum of Ely Cathedral in 1979 or installed in St John's Church at West Bay.

Isles of Scilly Town Hall

The Isles of Scilly Town Hall is a municipal building in Hugh Town, on the Isles of Scilly, in England. The building, which serves as the offices of Council of the Isles of Scilly, is a Grade II listed building. History The building was commissioned by Algernon Dorrien-Smith, whose uncle, Augustus Smith had acquired a lease over the Isles of Scilly from the Duchy of Cornwall for £20,000 in 1834, and created himself Lord Proprietor of the Isles of Scilly. He had intended that it would accommodate a market hall and some public rooms. The site he selected was an area known as The Parade, a small park situated at the centre of the isthmus, which had served as a parade ground for the Sea Fencibles during the Napoleonic Wars. The new building was designed by J. Goodfellow in the neoclassical style, built in coursed granite and was completed in 1889. It served as a public hall, theatre, magistrates' court, council chamber, and local authority offices. In 1891, the Isles of Scilly Rural District Council was formed, as a sui generis local government authority, outside the administrative county of Cornwall. The council established its offices in the town hall, and went on to commission an extension to create extra office space in 1970. Following the implementation of the Local Government Act 1972, the council was renamed as the Council of the Isles of Scilly. The council relocated its council chamber to the Old Wesleyan Chapel on Garrison Lane, in 2002. By the 2010s, the town hall was in poor repair and the stage area was condemned in 2017. In 2024, the council received a £4.6 million National Lottery Heritage Fund grant to restore the building. The building will house a cultural centre and the Isles of Scilly Museum, whose previous building, purpose-built in 1967, was condemned as unsafe in 2019. Some of the existing museum's objects were moved into temporary storage in the town hall in 2020. Architecture The two-storey building is constructed of squared and coursed granite, and it has a slate roof. It has a rectangular plan. The design involves a symmetrical main frontage of three bays facing onto The Parade. The central bay features a doorway flanked by two sash windows. The first floor is fenestrated by three more sash windows and all openings have segmental surrounds and keystones. At roof level there is a pediment. with a date stone flanked by two small windows in the tympanum. The building was grade II listed in 1992.
