All Saints Church, Snodland

All Saints’ Church is the parish church of Snodland in Kent, England. It is a Grade I listed building. It is dedicated to All Saints. Building All Saints’ Church is located nearby to Snodland railway station. It is located at the point where the Pilgrims' Way crosses the River Medway, and is mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086. The church was originally built in the 12th century, during the Norman era. There is evidence of a church on the same site by 1000. There was a substantial enlarging of the church during the 13th, 14th and 15th centuries. Above the west window, itself dating from around 1300, an earlier Norman-style arch can still be seen. The arcades and pillars of the nave are likely from the 14th century, which suggests that the north and south aisles were added then. The walls of the nave would have been pierced and the arches formed once the aisles had been added alongside. Outside from the east and west it can be seen where the roof has been splayed wider to cover the aisles. The most prominent change was the addition of the tower in the 15th century. The 19th century saw restoration of the church, first by Henry Dampier Phelps, rector between 1804 and 1865, who moved and added windows, and rebuilt the east wall. A singing gallery was added at the rear of the nave in 1824, and Phelps bought a barrel-organ to play the hymns. The most extensive maintenance occurred in 1869-70 under the direction of Reverend Carey, Phelps's successor. The old pews were gradually replaced and new flooring and roofing was installed. It is said that the Baker family, who ran the ferry, paid for the new vestry as a kind of family memorial; certainly it contains memorial stones and tablets to them. Another major renovation took place in 1905. The church's medieval glass suffered damage in the Second World War, from an explosion in 1942. Burials and Memorials A large memorial in the south aisle commemorates Thomas Waghorn (d. 1850), who pioneered the overland routes to India. See also Snodland List of churches in Kent References
The Mynde

The Mynde is a country house in Much Dewchurch, Herefordshire. Originally built in the 15th and 16th centuries, it was remodelled in the 18th century and refronted in the 19th century by William Atkinson. Built of sandstone rubble and brick, it is stuccoed on three sides. It has a rectangular floor plan with rear projecting wings to the west and an east facing frontage and is built in 3 storeys with a hipped Welsh slate roof. The main front elevation has 9 bays, with the central five bays slightly projecting, with a porch flanked by Doric columns supporting an entablature. It stands in a 1,180-acre estate and is approached along a mile-long private 'carriage drive' with views of the gardens, lake and the surrounding Herefordshire countryside. The house is a Grade I listed building. History The estate had descended in the Pye family since the Norman conquest and was their family seat in Tudor times. Amongst the Pye owners of the property were the lawyer and Elizabethan courtier Walter Pye I and the Royalist courtier Walter Pye II. In 1709 the Duke of Chandos acquired the house and added the striking Kings Hall with plasterwork by Bugatti and Attari. In 1740 it was purchased by Richard Symons of London. He was succeeded by his son John Symons in 1753, who became MP for Hereford in 1754. He and his wife Ann (nee Colebrooke) had no children and following his death on 30 December 1763 the estate passed to his nephew Richard Peers. This was subject to his wife being allowed to live there for her natural life and Peers taking the name Symons. Ann died on 4 March 1765 aged 53. Sir Richard Symons, MP for Hereford until 1784, died unmarried and childless in 1797. By his grandfather's will the estate passed to Thomas Raymond, the eldest son of the grandfather’s niece Mary Raymond, who likewise adopted the Symons name and arms. The estate then descended in the direct male line of the Symons family to Thomas Edward Raymond Symons (d. 1928), on whose death it was sold to a fellow army officer, Henry Ambrose Clive, younger son of General Edward Henry Clive of Perrystone Court, Herefordshire. In 1959 the estate was bought by William Anthony Twiston-Davies (d. 1989); his son, Audley, completed a restoration of the main house between 1997 and 2001, and put the property on the market in 2013. In 2016 the property was sold for £15m to Richard and Sarah Burt. The Mynde is a Grade I listed building. References
St Mary's Church, Lamberhurst

St Mary's Church is a parish church in Lamberhurst, Kent. It is a Grade I listed building. Building The first buildings on the site were erected in Saxon times. Records show there was a church or chapel of some sort here in AD998, and that it was consecrated during that year (24 September). The original structure was likely constructed in wood, which has not survived. The church was granted to Leeds Priory around 1137. The building has been expanded, adapted and updated many times since then. The earliest surviving fabric, located on the southwest side of the south chapel, dates from the early 13th century. The chancel and south chapel were extended in the late 13th century, while the four-bay nave, south aisle, and porch were rebuilt in the early 14th century. The east window of the chancel and the west window of the nave are perpendicular insertions from the mid-15th century, as is the large carved arch with a square hood-mold and quatrefoils above the south porch. The west tower was raised around 1475, constructed of fine ashlar masonry with a large plinth, angle buttresses, and a semi-octagonal stair-turret on the southeast. Inside, a fine two-tier carved Jacobean pulpit, dated 1630, stands on a tester. The Royal Arms of Queen Anne are displayed over the south doorway. In 1840, major restoration work was carried out in a rather unskilled way. Many images, crosses, piscinas, and other pieces were repositioned in places soon deemed unsuitable. As a result, the chancel and chapel were both rebuilt in 1870 by Ewan Christian, who retained the 14th century sedilia which stands between the two. They form a stone bench with two quatrefoil openings cut through the backrests, giving a view into the chapel. There is an ancient Yew by the porch that is estimated to be over 1500 years old, predating the church. Stained Glass The three-light east window is by Hardman and Co. and depicts Christ in Majesty to the centre, flanked by saints. It was installed in 1870 as part of Ewan Christian's rebuilding. Three windows in the north aisle were also filled with stained glass by Hardman and Co. at the same time, depicting the Holy Trinity, Crucifixion and Nativity. In the south aisle is an 1899 window by Clayton and Bell depicting the three Christian theological virtues of faith, hope and charity. The west end of the south wall features a two-light window installed in 1985, depicting the Archangel Gabriel announcing the Birth of Jesus to the shepherds. This window was designed by John Piper and made by David Wasley. Burials and memorials The church has a series of wall monuments, the most notable a black and white aedicule to Richard Thomas d.1657, and the series of marble plaques to the Husseys in the south (Scotney) chapel, including those of Edward Hussey, d.1894 and Christopher Hussey, d.1970.

Ledbury Market Hall

Ledbury Market Hall, also known as Ledbury Town Hall, is a municipal building in the High Street in Ledbury, Herefordshire, England. The structure, which is used as an events venue, is a Grade I listed building. History In the early 17th century, a market trader, John Phillips, launched an initiative to demolish an existing row of buildings in Shoppe Row and erect a market hall in their place. The building, which has been attributed to the master mason, John Abel, was designed in the Tudor style using half-timbered construction and was completed in 1617. The design involved a symmetrical main frontage with seven bays facing onto the High Street; the building was open on the ground floor, so that markets could be held, with a storeroom for grain on the first floor. The first floor, which was jettied out over the pavement, was supported by 16 oak posts and was accessed by a wooden staircase at the north end of the building. The first floor was fenestrated, on the west side, by three six-light mullioned and transomed windows and the half-timbering was executed in a Herringbone pattern. The Royalists defeated the Roundheads in a minor skirmish in the Market Place in April 1645 during the English Civil War. The store room on the first floor was converted for civic use in the early 19th century, enabling it to be used as a town hall and also as a venue for theatrical performances: early performers included the actor, Ira Aldridge, who appeared in a series of melodramas in late January and early February 1831. Queen Elizabeth II, accompanied by the Duke of Edinburgh, visited the building during a tour of the county in April 1957. The building continued to be used for meetings of Ledbury Town Council and wedding ceremonies until 2004 when these uses were discontinued because of the lack of access for the disabled. An extensive programme of restoration works, which involved temporarily raising the building by 600 millimetres (24 in) so that the oak posts could be restored, was completed in 2006.

St Margaret's Church, Horsmonden

St Margaret's Church is a parish church in the village of Horsmonden, Kent, England. It is a Grade I listed building. Building St Margaret's Church is set in a farmyard, some distance from Horsmonden.

Naworth Castle

Naworth Castle, auch Naward Castle, ist eine Burg etwa drei Kilometer östlich der Stadt Brampton an der A69 in der englischen Grafschaft Cumbria. Auf der anderen Seite des River Irthing liegt in Sichtweite die Lanercost Priory. Die Burg war der Sitz der Barone Dacre und ist heute Familiensitz ihrer Abkömmlinge, der Earls of Carlisle. English Heritage hat die Burg als historisches Gebäude I. Grades gelistet. Geschichte Man nimmt an, dass die Burg im späten 13. Jahrhundert entstand. Aus dieser Zeit stammt ein Donjon mit quadratischem Grundriss und eine Motte. 1323 wurde die Burg erstmals urkundlich erwähnt und 1335 erhielt Ralph Dacre die königliche Erlaubnis, die Burg zu befestigen. Wohnquartiere wurden Anfang des 16. Jahrhunderts von Thomas Dacre hinzugefügt und 1602 gab es weitere Anbauten für seinen Nachfolger Lord William Howard. Der eingefriedete Garten aus dem 18. Jahrhundert liegt vermutlich innerhalb der Grenzen des alten Burggrabens. Howard kaufte das Familienanwesen der Dacres von König Jakob I. zurück und quartierte sich, seine Kinder und seine Enkel in Naworth Castle ein. Er ließ die Burg restaurieren, das Anwesen ausbauen und schuf Ordnung in diesem Teil des Landes. Seine Familie war groß; sein älterer Sohn und Erbe Philip war der Großvater von Charles Howard, 1. Earl of Carlisle, und sein jüngerer Sohn Francis war der Vorfahr der Howards of Corby. William Morris, der Künstler und Sozialist, weilte im August 1874 in der Burg. In einem Brief an Aglaia Coronio schrieb er: „(...) alles ist sehr angenehm. Ned und ich verbringen unsere Vormittage in einem sehr entzückenden Raum in einem der Türme, der nicht verändert wurde, seit William Howard aus der Zeit Elisabeth I. hier gelebt hat: Der ganze Ort hier ist sicherlich der poetischste in ganz England.“ Von 1939 bis 1940 war die Rossall School in Naworth Castle einquartiert, da diese die eigenen Gebäude verschiedenen Regierungsstellen zur Verfügung stellen musste. Derzeit lebt Philip Howard, Bruder und vermutlicher Erbe des 13. Earl of Carlisle, dort. Verschiedenes In der Burg findet sich ein gut erhaltenes Priesterloch. Francis Galton soll das Konzept der Korrelation auf Naworth Castle erfunden haben. Einzelnachweise Weblinks Priest Hole – Special Feature. medieval-castle.com. Naworth Castle.
