St Christopher's Church, Bare

St Christopher's Church is in Marine Road East, Bare, Morecambe, Lancashire, England. It is an active Anglican parish church in the deanery of Lancaster and Morecambe, the archdeaconry of Lancaster, and the diocese of Blackburn. The church was built in 1933 to a design by Henry Paley of the Lancaster practice of Austin and Paley at a cost of £5,957 (equivalent to £160,000 in 2025). Its architectural style is Free Perpendicular. The architectural historian Nikolaus Pevsner commented that it is "pleasant to look at, but very conservative for its age". Its plan consists of a nave, north aisle, chancel, and northeast tower. A planned south aisle was never built. Most of the windows are in the style of the 16th century; those in the aisle are transomed. The stained glass includes the east window and the window at the east end of the chapel by Shrigley and Hunt dating from the 1930s. There is more 20th-century glass elsewhere in the church made by Abbott and Company of Lancaster. The two-manual pipe organ is the result of a rebuild in 1984 of an older organ by George Sixsmith.

St Clare of Assisi, Middlesbrough

St Clare's, Middlesbrough is a Roman Catholic church in the Brookfield area of Middlesbrough, England. It was built in 1965 and is located close to the junction of the A19 and the A174. History Construction The Church of St Clare Of Assisi was built from 1964 to 1965. It was originally part of the parish of St Francis of Assisi. It cost £35,000 and was designed by Thomas A. Crawford. On 11 February 1965 it was opened by the coadjutor Bishop of Middlesbrough Gordon Wheeler. Developments The church is of a fairly large size and of a typical design for churches built in the 1960s. The church was re-ordered after the Second Vatican Council, resulting in the tabernacle being moved to a separate Blessed Sacrament chapel in the church. Parish In 1967, the parish of St Francis of Assisi, centred in Acklam, Middlesbrough, was divided and St Clare's became a separate parish. This was caused by the greatly increased quantity of housing built in the locality and the consequent increased population. In 2013, it reverted from being a parish church to being again within the parish of St Francis of Assisi. It has one Sunday Mass at 9 am.

Chiesa di Saint Clement (Oxford)

La chiesa di Saint Clement (San Clemente) è una chiesa evangelica sita in seno alla Chiesa Anglicana, parrocchia sita nella parte orientale di Oxford, in Inghilterra. Storia La parrocchia di St. Clement era fuori dalla città di Oxford fino ai cambiamenti di confine nel 1835. Originariamente era situata dove le strade di Oxford da est si incontrano per attraversare il ponte Magdalen nel centro della città. Nel 1004, il maniero fu concesso alla Chiesa di Saint Frideswide (ora Christ Church Cathedral). Nel 1122 il re Enrico I diede al convento la cappella reale di San Clemente. L'edificio originale della chiesa fu demolito nel 1829. Il suo sito è diventato lo spazio aperto chiamato The Plain che ora è una rotonda. Una nuova chiesa fu costruita in un nuovo luogo durante il 1827-28 vicino all'altra estremità di San Clemente, all'estremità meridionale di Marston Road. L'architetto Daniel Robertson progettò il nuovo edificio in stile normanno: un primissimo esempio del revival di questo stile dell'architettura dell'XI e dell'inizio del XII secolo. Fu costruito da John Hudson di Oxford e costò £ 6.032, sostenuto da un dono di un appezzamento di terra da parte di sir Joseph Lock e da pubbliche sottoscrizioni, principalmente raccolte da John Henry Newman. L'edificio è di dimensioni superiori alla media per una chiesa, ma il suo design non ha incontrato l'approvazione universale ed è stato soprannominato localmente "coniglio bollito".

St Clement's Hospital

St Clement's Hospital was a mental health hospital located in the Bow and was situated in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets, History The building opened in a former workhouse building as the City of London Union Infirmary in 1874. The palatial design of the workhouse had been created by architect Richard Tress and had cost over £55,000 to construct, boasted central heating, a dining-hall measuring 100 feet by 50 feet, Siberian marble pillars, and a chapel with stained glass windows and a new organ. It closed in 1909 but re-opened as a hospital for chronically ill people becoming known as the City of London Institution in 1912 and as the Bow Institution in 1913. At the time of transfer to the London County Council in 1930 the hospital had 744 beds. The Master was H. C. Stuttle, the medical officer E. T. Pinhay, and Mrs E. Edwins was Matron. It became a psychiatric unit, known by its most commonly adopted name of 'St Clement's Hospital' in 1936. The west side of the site suffered extensive bomb damage during the Second World War, destroying the chapel and the sites initial symmetry. The hospital joined the newly formed National Health Service in 1948 and then came under the same management as the London Hospital in 1968. After services were transferred to a new Adult Mental Health Facility at Mile End Hospital, the hospital closed in February 2006. London's First Community Land Trust Following the hospital's closure the site was transferred from the NHS to English Partnerships, then to the Homes and Communities Agency, and eventually the Greater London Authority, who marketed it as a regeneration opportunity in 2011. Following a long campaign, the Greater London Authority announced in April 2012 that the site would include London's first Community Land Trust. Mayor of London Boris Johnson broke the ground on the site in March 2014. The house prices are not based on the open market rate but instead are linked to the average median salaries in the London Borough of Tower Hamlets. This formula is reapplied every time a house within the Trust is sold, creating what organisers describe as "truly and permanently affordable housing".

St Clement Eastcheap

St Clement Eastcheap ist eine anglikanische Kirche im Londoner Innenstadtbezirk City of London. Geschichte Das Patrozinium des als Schutzheiligen der Seefahrer verehrten Papstes Clemens von Rom verweist auf eine mit dem Fernhandel verbundene frühe Gründung der am Eastcheap oder Ostmarkt in der Nähe der London Bridge und der Themse gelegenen Kirche. Die Ersterwähnung erfolgte 1067 in einer Urkunde König Williams I. für Westminster Abbey, der sie bis zur Auflösung der Klöster in der Zeit der Reformation angehörte. Die mittelalterliche Kirche wurde 1666 im Großen Brand von London zerstört, doch verzögerten zunächst Auseinandersetzungen wegen der neuen Straßenführung und der geplanten Vergrößerung der Kirche, die mit ihrer Nachbargemeinde zusammengelegt worden war, den Baubeginn. Erst in den Jahren 1683 bis 1687 konnte, nachdem die Grundstücksprobleme gelöst waren, der Wiederaufbau durch Christopher Wren begonnen werden. Nachdem 1834 zunächst Abbruchpläne bestanden hatten, erfuhr die Kirche 1872 eine Restaurierung durch William Butterfield, dessen Änderungen 1933 weitgehend wieder zurückgenommen wurden. Kriegsschäden wurden 1949–50 behoben, und 1968 fand eine weitere Restaurierung statt. Architektur Der von Wren ausgeführte Kirchenbau ist, ganz ähnlich wie die benachbarte Kirche St Margaret Pattens, eine einfache, im Innern flachgedeckte Saalkirche mit südlich angebautem Seitenschiff und einem in den Winkel zwischen beiden eingesetzten Turmbau. Aufgrund der Enge des Straßenraums erfuhr die durch Eckquaderungen gegliederte Fassade eine starke Artikulation, indem die Portalachse risalitartig vorgezogen und mit Dreiecksgiebel ausgestattet ist und sich auch der Turmbau deutlich absetzt. Aufgrund der winkligen Einmündung der St Clement’s Lane in die King William Street übernimmt die Fassade mit ihrem Kirchturm zugleich eine wichtige städtebauliche Funktion. Die Kirche hat weitgehend ihre Originalausstattung mit Kanzel, Altarwand und Vertäfelung behalten. Die Orgel wurde 1696 durch Renatus Harris erbaut und seither mehrfach überarbeitet, so bereits 1704 durch Christian Smith, und 1711 durch Abraham Jordan, der ein Schwellwerk zufügte. Die Versetzung des ursprünglich nordseitig platzierten Instruments in das Südschiff 1872 wurde 1936 zugunsten einer Positionierung über dem Westeingang geändert, wozu das darüber liegende Fenster vermauert wurde.

St Columba's Church, Pont Street

St Columba's Church is one of the two London congregations of the Church of Scotland. The church building, designed by Sir Edward Maufe, is located in Pont Street, Knightsbridge, near Harrods department store. It was given Grade II listing by English Heritage in 1988. History The presence of Scottish Presbyterianism in London dates back to the Union of the Crowns in 1603. A congregation was established near what is now Trafalgar Square, with a permanent church later being built in Crown Court near Covent Garden. Crown Court Church is still in use, although rebuilt. The growth in the Scottish community in London resulted in the need for a larger church than Crown Court Church alone could accommodate. St Columba's Church (dedicated to the 6th-century Irish saint Columba, who is credited with spreading Christianity in Scotland) was therefore constructed, opening in 1884. However, this original building was destroyed by wartime bombing on the night of 10 May 1941. It was rebuilt on the same site in 1955 to a striking contemporary design by the architect Sir Edward Maufe, who also designed Guildford Cathedral. The war memorial chapel was dedicated on 25 March 1956. The dance society London Reels meets at St Columba's once a month from September to June to dance Highland Reels. Ministry The current minister (as at April 2020) is the Rev C. Angus MacLeod, who was inducted to the charge by the Church of Scotland's Presbytery of England on 7 June 2012. Newcastle congregation St Columba's Church is linked (i.e. shares a minister) with St Andrew's Church in Newcastle upon Tyne. This church is located at the junction of Sandyford Road and Grantham Road in Newcastle. The nearest Tyne and Wear Metro station is Jesmond. Moderators There have been three Ministers of St Columba's who have held the office as Moderator of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland: Very Rev. Robert F. V. Scott, 1956 Very Rev. J. Fraser McLuskey, 1983 Very Rev. John H.

The chancel was rebuilt in 1854–55 by J. S. Crowther. The bellcote on the west gable has been rebuilt more than once. In the 1680s it was a triple bellcote; it is now double, and was last rebuilt in 2006. Architecture Exterior St Columba's is constructed in red sandstone with a slate roof, and has a cruciform plan. The plan consists of a nave, a south aisle, a south porch, north and south transepts, and a chancel. The north wall of the nave is Norman.

The windows in the nave and the aisle are in Perpendicular style, and the 19th-century chancel is Early English, with three widely-spaced lancet windows at the east end. The buttresses around the chancel are semi-octagonal in plan, and have square tops. Interior Inside the church is a two-bay Perpendicular south arcade. The chancel arch and both transept arches date from the 13th century, and the nave roof from the 15th century. There is a piscina in each transept because in the past they were used by different townships. The pews are all box pews, they are all numbered, and one is dated 1716. Most of the stained glass in the chancel windows is by William Wailes. The south transept contains two windows dating from the 1860s and 1870s by Heaton, Butler and Bayne. In the north wall of the nave is a window by Shrigley and Hunt dated 1893, and in the south aisle is a window of 1898 by Ninian Comper. In different positions inside the church are eight coffin-lids carved with foliated crosses. The south transept contains a worn effigy dating from 1788. The single-manual pipe organ was built for a Methodist chapel in Consett, County Durham, by Harrison and Harrison, and was moved here and installed in 1992. External features In the churchyard to the south of the church are the remains of a cross, dating possibly from the medieval era. It consists of the stump of a cross-shaft set in a socket in a square plinth, and is listed at Grade II. Also outside the church is a medieval doorway that was moved from Burton Hall when it was demolished in 1957.

St Conan's Church, Egloshayle

The Church of St Conan is an Anglican church on the A389 road near Washaway in Egloshayle, Cornwall, England, UK. History Built at a cost of £490 with designs by James Arthur Reeve of Norwich, the church was opened for worship on 23 July 1883. The stonemasons responsible for its construction were Gill and Cleave of Egloshayle, while the carpentry work was undertaken by Mr Williams of Egloshayle. The granite work was provided by Mr Evans from the firm of Doney and Evans. It reportedly has an ancient font of Saxon origin. This font came from Lanteglos-by-Camelford; it is similar to one at Morwenstow but has much decoration of a Celtic character. Nikolaus Pevsner dated it as c. 1100 or earlier. There is a fine pulpit, possibly of German workmanship. The church became a Grade II listed building on 4 November 1988. The saint to whom the church is dedicated may have been Conan who was associated with St Petroc; another possibility is that he is Conan who was Bishop of St Germans in the 930s. St Conan's feast is celebrated on 23 July.
