St Peter's, Notting Hill

St Peter's Notting Hill is a Victorian Anglican church in Kensington Park Road, Notting Hill, London. Designed in the classical style by architect Thomas Allom, work was begun in 1855 and completed in 1857. History Until the mid nineteenth century Notting Hill was a largely rural neighbourhood at the edge of the western suburbs of London. Development in the area began during the 1840s on the Ladbroke Estate where St John's Notting Hill was completed in 1845. It soon became clear that another church was needed, and the site for St Peter's was donated by the trader and philanthropist Charles Henry Blake (1794–1872). Blake had made his fortune in India trading in indigo, and went on to make an even greater fortune as landowner, financier, builder and speculator in Notting Hill. In 1845 Blake had made a significant financial contribution to the construction of neighbouring St John's. St Peter's was designed by Allom as a part of his overall plan for Kensington Park Gardens and the neighbouring streets of Stanley Crescent and Stanley Gardens, which were developed by Blake. Work on St Peter's was begun in November 1855. The completed church was consecrated on 7 January 1857 by the then Bishop of London, Archibald Campbell Tait. St Peter's was designed to accommodate a congregation of 1,400. It is thought to be the last 19th century Anglican church to be built in London in the classical style. St Peter's is a building of notable architectural quality, and is listed Grade II*. The interior of the building is very elaborate, with many of the pillars boasting gilded capitals. St Peter's today In 1982 the parishes of St John's and St Peter's were linked by the appointment of a single vicar, and in 1986 the parishes became the united parish of St Peter's and St John's. However, on 1 January 2003 the two parishes again separated, though they continue to form part of a group ministry. The church is used for Notting Hill lunchtime concerts.

St Peter's and St Paul's Church is a parish church in Headcorn, Kent dedicated to saints Peter and Paul. It was begun in the 13th century. The church is a Grade I listed building. Building Construction of the church was begun in the 13th century and continued during the 14th and 15th centuries. The church is constructed of Bethersden marble and has plain tiled roofs. The late 14th-century west tower comprises three stages with buttresses on the external corners and a taller attached polygonal stair turret on the north-east corner. String courses separate each stage and a battlemented parapet forms the top of the walls on each side. The west side contains a three-lighted, cinquefoil-headed and traceried window in the first stage positioned above the small west door. The second stage contains small rectangular windows on the façades and the third stage contains two- or three-lighted belfry windows on each side with either trefoil or quatrefoil decoration. The nave is probably 14th-century and is flanked on the south side by a late 14th-century aisle with its attached porch of a similar age. The parapets of the aisle and porch are battlemented. The three aisle windows are cinquefoil-topped and the porch inner doorway is of Bethesden marble. The north wall of the nave contains four three-lighted traceried windows separated by buttresses. The chancel is 13th century with the windows replaced probably in the late 14th century or in the 15th century. The east end is gabled with a tall window of two stacked groups of three cinquefoil-topped lights. Abutting the south side of the chancel is the south chapel which also dates from the 14th century.

St Peter-in-the-East

St Peter-in-the-East is a 12th-century church on Queen's Lane, north of the High Street in central Oxford, England. It is now deconsecrated and houses the college library of St Edmund Hall. The churchyard to the north is laid out as a garden and contains a seated bronze statue depicting St Edmund as an impoverished student. History A church has existed on the current site since the late 10th century. In the 11th century, it was replaced by a stone church, which is mentioned in the Domesday Book of c. 1085: the church of St. Peter Oxenford holds of Robert two hides in Haliwelle...It was worth twenty shillings, now it is worth forty... The church is believed to be named after the 5th-century church of S. Pietro in Vincoli, Rome, Italy. In the early 12th century the church was renamed St-Peter-in-the-East, because of its location near the East Gate of the walled city of Oxford, to differentiate it from the Church of St Peter-le-Bailey, which was built close to Oxford Castle. The Norman parts of the current church were built around 1140 by Robert D'Oilly, who was then Governor of Oxford. The church passed to the Crown from D'Oilly's heirs. In 1266, King Henry III gave it to Walter de Merton, and as a consequence Merton College held the advowson for the church. The churches at Wolvercote and Holywell were originally chapels of ease of St Peter's. In the twentieth century, changes in the demographics of central Oxford, mainly as a result of the First World War, led to a significant decline in the size of the congregation, and the church closed in 1965. The present day St Peter-in-the-East was deconsecrated in the 1970s and renovated for its present use. The building now serves as the college library of St Edmund Hall. Church building The 12th-century church originally consisted of a crypt, chancel, and nave, extending to just beyond the south door. In the 13th century, a north aisle was added to the nave. The church tower was added in the 14th century, and the nave was either heightened or reconstructed to connect with the tower. The windows are mostly 14th-century and the door into the tower is 16th-century. At the east end of the aisle there is a small chapel dedicated to St Catharine and St Thomas, constructed in the early 16th century. The Lady Chapel (or North Chapel) was built in the early 13th century. It was donated by Edmund Rich, who later became Archbishop of Canterbury, when he was a resident of the Hall that was subsequently named St Edmund Hall after him. The north window, dating from 1433, was donated by the vicar, Vincent Wyking. It contains some glass from that period and some from the 14th century. The east windows are two 13th-century lancets.

St Peter-in-the-East

St Peter-in-the-East är en kyrka från 1100-talet på Queen's Lane, norr om High Street i centrala Oxford i England. Den är nu avkristnad och rymmer collegebiblioteket i St Edmund Hall. Kyrkogården norrut är anlagd som en trädgård och innehåller en sittande bronsstaty som föreställer Sankt Edmund av Abingdon som en fattig student. Historia En kyrka har funnits på den nuvarande platsen sedan slutet av 900-talet. På 1000-talet ersattes den av en stenkyrka, som nämns i Domesday Book från cirka 1085: kyrkan Sankt Peter Oxenford har två hudar av Robert i Haliwelle... De var värda tjugo shilling, nu är de värda fyrtio... Kyrkan tros ha fått sitt namn efter 400-talskyrkan S. Pietro i Vincoli i Rom. I början av 1100-talet bytte kyrkan namn till St-Peter-in-the-East, på grund av dess läge nära östra porten till den befästa staden Oxford, för att skilja den från kyrkan St Peter-le-Bailey, som byggdes nära Oxford Castle. De normandiska delarna av den nuvarande kyrkan byggdes omkring 1140 av Robert D'Oilly, som då var guvernör i Oxford. Kyrkan gick till kronan från D'Oillys arvingar. År 1266 gav kung Henrik III den till Walter de Merton, och som en följd av detta erhöll Merton College patronatsrätt för kyrkan. Kyrkorna i Wolvercote och Holywell var ursprungligen kapell. Under 1900-talet ledde förändringar i demografin i centrala Oxford, främst som ett resultat av första världskriget, till en betydande minskning av församlingens storlek, och kyrkan stängdes 1965. St Peter-in-the-East avkristnades på 1970-talet och renoverades för sin nuvarande användning. Byggnaden fungerar nu som högskolans bibliotek vid St Edmund Hall. Byggnaden 1100-talskyrkan bestod ursprungligen av en krypta, kor och långhus som sträckte sig strax bortom den södra dörren. På 1200-talet tillkom det norra sidoskeppet till långhuset. Kyrktornet tillkom på 1300-talet, och långhuset höjdes antingen eller byggdes om för att ansluta till tornet. Fönstren är mestadels från 1300-talet och dörren in till tornet är från 1500-talet. I östra änden av sidoskeppet finns ett litet kapell tillägnat Sankta Katarina och aposteln Tomas, byggt i början av 1500-talet. Mariakapellet (eller Norra kapellet) byggdes i början av 1200-talet. Den donerades av Edmund Rich, som senare blev ärkebiskop av Canterbury, när han bodde i Hallen som senare fick namnet St Edmund Hall efter honom. Nordfönstret, daterat till 1433, donerades av kyrkoherden Vincent Wyking. Den innehåller glas från den perioden och en del från 1300-talet. De östra fönstren är två lansetter från 1200-talet.

St Peter Mancroft (Norwich)

St Peter Mancroft ist eine Pfarrkirche der anglikanischen Church of England unter dem Patrozinium des Apostels Petrus in der ostenglischen Stadt Norwich in der Grafschaft (county) Norfolk. Sie ist als Grade-I-Bauwerk eingestuft und gehört zum Major Churches Network. Die Bedeutung des seit Jahrhunderten überlieferten Beinamens Mancroft ist unklar. Lage Die Stadt Norwich ist ca. 180 km (Fahrtstrecke) in nordöstlicher Richtung von London entfernt; bis zur Nordseeküste sind es nur ca. 30 km (Luftlinie). Die Kirche liegt im Stadtzentrum nahe dem Marktplatz und ist nur etwa 300 m vom Norwich Castle entfernt. Geschichte Eine erste Kirche wurde Ende des 11. Jahrhunderts von Ralph de Gaël, einem Mitstreiter Wilhelms des Eroberers, erbaut. Im Jahr 1388 kam die Kirche in den Besitz des Benediktinerklosters St Mary in the Fields, welches um die Mitte des 15. Jahrhunderts einen Neubau in den Formen des Perpendicular Style unternahm. Etwa 40 Jahre nach der Auflösung der englischen Klöster unter Heinrich VIII. in den Jahren 1536–1541 wurde die Kirche eine Pfarrkirche. Architektur Neben dem Vierungsturm der Kathedrale von Norwich dominiert der etwa 40 m hohe und von seitlichen Strebepfeilern stabilisierte Westturm die Silhouette der Stadt. Er sollte wahrscheinlich noch einen Spitzhelm tragen, der jedoch nie begonnen wurde; der heutige bleigedeckte Helm ist eine Hinzufügung aus den Jahren 1895/96. Das Innere der Kirche ist dreischiffig und basilikal aufgebaut; alle drei Schiffe haben Holzdecken. Besonders erwähnenswert ist das stilreine Maßwerk der drei Chorfenster. Ausstattung Der größte Teil der Ausstattung stammt aus dem 19. Jahrhundert. Aus spätmittelalterlicher Zeit stammen lediglich eine Figurengruppe mit den Aposteln Petrus, Paulus, Andreas und Johannes, das Taufbecken und sein Baldachin sowie ein Webteppich mit der Darstellung der Auferstehung Christi. Im Lauf der Zeit kamen einige Grabmäler und Epitaphe (darunter eines für den Philosophen Thomas Browne († 1682)) hinzu. Orgel Die heutige Orgel wurde 1984 von dem Orgelbauer Peter Colins erbaut. Das Instrument hat 38 Register auf drei Manualen und Pedal. Die Spiel- und Registertrakturen sind mechanisch.

St Peter and St Paul's Church, New Brighton

The Sacred Shrine of Ss. Peter, Paul and St. Philomena is a Grade II listed Church in Atherton Street, New Brighton, Wirral, England. It has a green dome, from which it has gained the name "The Dome of Home" from local people. The origins of this nickname date back to the mid 20th century, when sailors would recognise they were close to Merseyside when they could see the church. Origins of the church The church was founded by a priest called Father Tom Mullins. Born in Ireland, he studied for Priesthood in Lisbon, Portugal. When Father Tom got back to the Wirral, he was serving at a church (now demolished) in Hope Street. He went on to pursue his dream of constructing the church. When construction was finished New Brighton was becoming a very popular resort. The church opened in 1935.

The present In 2006, when Father Wentworth retired, Father Feeney was welcomed as the new Parish Priest. Father Feeney had a job of looking after three parishes, the others being English Martyrs and Our Lady of Lourdes. Together, all three churches united in becoming the North Wallasey Catholic Community. In 2008, the church was closed by a decision of the local diocese. The parishioners were relocated to another church, about a five-minute walk away, called All Saints, owned by the Church of England In 2011 the church was re-opened for a weekly mass, and there was an expression of interest by a religious order, the Institute of Christ the King, to re-open the church fully. On 15 October 2011 Canon Oliver Meney and another member of the Institute of Christ the King took up residence in the fully renovated presbytery. Daily Mass is now offered in the day chapel at 9 a.m. with other devotions and activities.

St Peter and Paul Church, Newport

St. Peter and St. Paul Roman Catholic Church is a parish of the Roman Catholic Church in Newport, Shropshire, England. The parish covers Newport and the surrounding villages as far as Hinstock. Salters Hall, in Salters Lane, Newport, is attached to the church. It was designed by Augustus Pugin and built in 1852. History Sts. Peter and Paul's is the oldest Catholic parish in Shropshire. It became a parish in 1650 when it was connected with the Catholic Talbot family at Longford Hall. When Longford Hall was sold in 1789, the priest was provided with another residence by the Earl of Shrewsbury—Salters Hall, named after Judge Salter, who was high sheriff of Shropshire. It was the home of the first Bishop of Shrewsbury, James Brown, from 1851 to 1868. The church was built onto the house in 1832, although not consecrated until 1906, and the old house was absorbed into the present large building. The church contains a series of five large twentieth-century stained-glass windows designed and made by Margaret Rope, depicting Saints Peter and Paul, Winefride and Nicholas, and Our Lady Help of Christians. In a garden outside the east end is the church war memorial, consisting of a stone figure of Christ on a wooden crucifix with the stigmata indicated in red paint, to members of its congregation who died in World War I.

St Peter and St Paul's Church, Widmerpool

St. Peter's Church, Widmerpool is a parish church in the Church of England in Widmerpool. History It is uncertain how long there has stood a church on this site but "The Buildings of England, Nottinghamshire" makes reference to the later church emanating "From the original medieval structure" The Anglican parish register has records dating from 1539. Originally dedicated to St. Peter and St. Paul, the church is now formally known as St Peter's. The old church was in a poor state of repair and neglect when the Robertsons acquired the estate and was rebuilt in 1832. Unfortunately the handsome Gothic spire was struck by lightning some four years later, demolishing half of the spire and breaking all the glass windows. The remaining spire was then removed and the church rebuilt yet again at a cost of £10,000 in the period 1888–1895. This involved considerable financial help from the Robertson (Robinson) family. A tower replaced the spire and has three bells. The churchyard is ornamentally planted with evergreens. During the civil war two soldiers that were killed at the Battle of Willoughby Fields nearby were buried in the graveyard. There is a roll of honour, commemorating the two world wars, on the south wall. Inside is a plaque above the door to the vestry. To each side of the pillars inside of the south door are carved head ornaments, one of a lion and the other a bull. The graveyard is well kept and planted with evergreens. Close by is a large copse and nature reserve. Parish Status The church is a part of a united benefice comprising: St. Peter's, Widmerpool St. Mary and All Saints, Willoughby-on-the-Wolds, and Holy Trinity, Wysall Organ The church has a pipe organ by Hunter dating from the 1890s with a fine carved case. A specification of the pipe organ can be found on the National Pipe Organ Register See also Grade II* listed buildings in Nottinghamshire Listed buildings in Widmerpool References External links
