St Leonard's Church, Hartley Mauditt

St Leonard's Church is a Church of England parish church in the hamlet of Hartley Mauditt, East Hampshire district of Hampshire, England. All that is left of the hamlet is the 12th-century church, the foundations of a manor house, and a large pond, Hartley Pond, which lies opposite the church on the other side of the road. The church is dedicated to St Leonard. History The small church was constructed after the Norman Conquest, but its original simplicity was lost with subsequent workmanship, which was out of character with the style of the original building. It was probably built by the de Mauditt family between 1100 and 1125. It was restored and a bell turret on the west gable was added in 1853–4. Architecture and fittings St Leonard's consists of a nave, chancel, and south porch. The 13th century chancel contains some ancient monuments of the Stuart family. The chancel arch separating the small chancel from the larger nave is a rare example of the horseshoe form. Some good tiles on the chancel floor are notable. There are 34 tiles set in two lines on the chancel floor with seven designs. On the top of the East wall of the Nave above the chancel arch is a painting of a Lion and Unicorn with the initials "CIIR" (Charles the Second Rex) at the top. Charles the second reigned from 1660 to 1685. The south doorway dates from the end of the 12th century. The octagonal font is of Decorated Period style, 15th century. Several of the windows contain stained glass. References
St Leonard's Church, Sutton Veny

St Leonard's Church in Sutton Veny, Wiltshire, England, was built in the 12th century. It is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a Grade II listed building, and is now a redundant church in the care of the Churches Conservation Trust. It was declared redundant on 28 May 1970, and was vested in the Trust on 27 October 1971. The cruciform church was started in the 12th century and revised in the 13th and 16th centuries, and underwent a major restoration in 1831. It was originally linked to the Priory Church of St Mary, Abergavenny. Subsidence because of low-lying damp ground caused further damage, which had been repaired by the addition of buttresses in the 14th and 15th century, and by 1866 the decision was made to build a new church. This was dedicated to St John the Evangelist, designed by John Loughborough Pearson and built on higher ground 700 yards (640 m) to the north-west, opening in 1868. Only the chancel remains in usable condition and was used as a mortuary chapel; it contains benefaction boards, a bier, a font, and a bell, and there are memorials on the walls. The nave, transepts and crossing are ruined, and among the ruins stands a 12th-century doorway, possibly repositioned. There are two yew trees south east of the church. One which is now largely decayed has a girth of 14 feet 10 inches (4.52 m); it is not known how large it was when the tree was healthy.

St Leonard's Mill, Winchelsea

St Leonard's mill was a post mill at Winchelsea, East Sussex, England which was blown down in the Great Storm of 1987. History St Leonard's Mill was built in 1760, originally standing in Iham. It was shown at that site on the 1808 Ordnance Survey map, and was still there in 1813. By 1823 the mill had been moved to the new site, which was on the remains of St Leonard's church. An accident when fitting a new stock to the mill in 1861 resulted in the death of Benjamin King, millwright. The mill was working until the 1890s and was derelict by the 1920s. It was repaired in 1935 and dummy sails fitted, which did not last long. The mill was again repaired in 1955. The National Trust became custodians of the mill in 1975. In February 1978, the back of the mill was blown out in a gale. The windmill was blown down on the morning of 16 October 1987. The wreckage of the mill was still to be seen on site the following March. One of the millstones was salvaged and used in the restoration of Lowfield Heath Windmill. The site of the windmill is now marked by Winchelsea's Millennium Beacon. Description St Leonard's Mill was a post mill with a single storey roundhouse, It was winded by a roof mounted fantail. The mill had two Spring sails and two Common sails carried on a wooden Windshaft. The mill was the last in Sussex to retain a wooden windshaft without an iron poll end, this had been removed by 1935. Two pairs of millstones were arranged Head and Tail, with a third pair underdriven by a belt, this from an Upright Shaft which was driven by the tail wheel.

St Leonard's Without

The church of St Leonard's Without is a small chapel built between 1230 and 1240 in the parish of Kirkstead, Lincolnshire, close to Woodhall Spa. The chapel lies close to the now-ruined Kirkstead Abbey founded in 1139. It served as the capella ante portas (Latin for chapel outside the gates) to the abbey and its name refers to its being "without" (outside) the walls of the monastery. A Grade I listed building, it is an excellent example of the Early English style. Even though measuring only 12.8 metres (42 ft) by 5.8 metres (19 ft), it is up to "cathedral standards" of construction. It may well have been built as a chantry chapel in memory of Robert de Tattershall, who died in 1212. After use for many centuries as a church, it closed in 1877, when a Presbyterian congregation was evicted. From 1883 the Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings fought to save it from total decay. Eventually during 1913 and 1914, it was restored by the architect William Weir.

St Levan's Church, St Levan

St Levan Church, St Levan is a parish church in the Church of England located in St Levan, Cornwall, United Kingdom. Until 1864 the church was a chapelry of the Royal Peculiar of the Deanery of St Buryan. It is now part of the united benefice of St Buryan and St Sennen. History The church of St Levan is medieval. It was heavily rebuilt in the twelfth century and extended in the fifteenth century. In 1874 it was restored by J. D. Sedding to a more medieval appearance. According to the Life of St Kybi, St Levan (properly Selevan, a Celtic form of Solomon) was a Cornishman and the father of Kybi. In the department of Morbihan are four places probably connected to the same saint, who probably lived in the 6th or 7th century. On the cliff at St Levan is St Levan's Well and below it the probable remains of his chapel, which were described by William Borlase in his Antiquities. William Alsa, a local priest, was hanged for taking part in the 1549 Prayer Book Rebellion. Bells The tower contains three bells dating from 1641 (John Beaskam), 1754 (Abel Rudhall) and 1881 (Mears & Stainbank). Stone crosses Langdon (1896) records six stone crosses in the parish, of which two are in the churchyard. Stained window A stained glass window, the work of Messrs Joseph Bell and Son of Bristol, was placed in the chancel in March 1880. The window depicts Jesus, holding a child, between St Peter and St John and is in memory of Achile Baglehole who died when he fell off the cliff at Land's End in July 1879. References
St Luke's Campus

St Luke's Campus is a small university campus which is part of the University of Exeter. The School of Sport and Health Sciences, the Graduate School of Education, and the Medical School are all based at St Luke's. St Luke's is also home to the Children's Health and Exercise Research Centre (CHEREC). The centre, part of the School of Sport and Health Sciences, was awarded the Queen's Anniversary Prize for higher education in recognition of its eminence in paediatric physiology. This made CHEREC the first receiver of the award in sport science research. History St Luke's College was opened on 18 October 1854 as the new premises of the Exeter Diocesan Training School that had been established as a Church College of Education in the Cathedral Close in 1839 to train schoolmasters. Through the second half of the 19th century, the college buildings and grounds were greatly developed. St Luke's suffered a direct hit during a World War II bombing raid on Exeter that destroyed a large part of the original building. The stone work has been rebuilt and is clearly visible due to a change in the colouring of the brick work. After the war the college was known as St Luke's Training College. Women students were first admitted in 1966, by which time the college was known as St Luke's College Exeter. It still had a strong Christian emphasis as a Church of England foundation. In 1978 the college joined the University of Exeter and ceased to be an independent Anglican college. Gallows location Part of the current campus car park, just to the east of College Avenue, was, from the 16th century to 1818, the site of the Heavitree gallows for Exeter. The three convicted Bideford "witches" were hanged there on 25 August 1682; their bodies were buried nearby where, presumably, their bones still remain somewhere beneath the car park.
