Nuffield Lodge

Nuffield Lodge is a house on Prince Albert Road, Regent's Park, London, England. It is Grade I listed. Both the house and its gardens fall within Regent's Park, which is Grade I listed on the Register of Historic Parks and Gardens. It is owned by the Sultan of Oman. History The villa was built from 1822 to 1824 as Grove House, and designed by the architect Decimus Burton as a bachelor residence for the geologist George Bellas Greenough (1778-1855). On the death of Greenough, the lease passed to Francis Smedley, the High Bailiff of Westminster, and then to his son the author Francis Edward Smedley and following his death in 1864 his cousin, Menella Bute Smedley, who had cared for him and acted as his private secretary continued to reside in the property until her death 1877. The family connection was maintained by Thomas Greer (MP) who occupied the house from Christmas 1878 to his death in 1905. In 1907, the Greer family moved back to Ireland and sold the property by auction to Sigismund Goetze (1866-1939) who painted the interior murals. In 1952, it was bought by the Nuffield Foundation, and renamed Nuffield Lodge. The Nuffield Foundation gave up the lease in 1986, and it became a private residence and reverted to the name Grove House. In 2014, the roof was removed and replaced. It was owned by the Sultan of Oman, Qaboos bin Said, until his death in January 2020, when he was succeeded by Haitham bin Tariq. Design Nuffield Lodge's stable block was built by Burton c.1824 and was converted into an artist's studio for Goetze in 1909 by Sidney Tatchell. It is Grade II listed, and features stucco ornamentation in its interior. The archway connecting the studio stable block and the Palm house is listed Grade II. The palm house in the grounds of the lodge is Grade II* listed, and was also designed by Burton. The palm house was designed to form a screen along with the stabling against "unpleasant objects" in the villa's environment. The Historic England heritage listing describes the palm house as "one of Burton's first experiments in the structural use of iron and glass". References

Bondgate Tower

Bondgate Tower, også kendt som Hotspur Tower eller Hotspur Gateway med henvisning til Sir Henry Percy (almindeligvis kendt som Harry Hotspur), søn af 1. jarl af Northumberland og far til 2. jarl af Northumberland. Selvom bygningen ofte kaldes et tårn, er den i virkeligheden et porttårn. Den har tre etager opført i sten og består af en tilbagetrukket buegang flankeret af to polygonale tårne. Den ligger i Alnwick, Northumberland, i Storbritannien. Porttårnet spænder over Bondgate (B6346), som er Alnwicks hovedgade. Lav trafik kan passere gennem portåbningen, mens høje køretøjer må tage omveje for at komme forbi. I 1434 gav Henrik 5. en tilladelse til befæstning til Henry Percy, 2. jarl af Northumberland, så byen kunne omgives af mure og forsynes med brystværn. Arbejdet tog halvtreds år at fuldføre, og Bondgate Tower stod færdigt omkring 1450. Referencer Eksterne henvisninger
Bondgate Tower

Bondgate Tower also known as the Hotspur Tower or the Hotspur Gateway in reference to Sir Henry Percy (commonly known as Harry Hotspur), son of the 1st Earl of Northumberland and father of the 2nd Earl of Northumberland. Although commonly called a tower it is actually a gatehouse. It has three storeys constructed of stone and consists of a recessed archway flanked by two polygonal towers. It is located in Alnwick, Northumberland in the United Kingdom. The gatehouse straddles Bondgate (the B6346), the main road of Alnwick. Low traffic can pass through its entrance while tall vehicles must take diversions to get past. A licence was granted in 1434 by Henry V to Henry Percy 2nd Earl of Northumberland to wall the town and add battlements. These took fifty years to complete, with Bondgate Tower being finished around 1450. Gallery References
Christ's College Bathing Pool

Christ's College Bathing Pool is a swimming pool in the Fellows' Garden of Christ's College, Cambridge, England. Dating from the mid-17th century, the bathing pool is thought to be the oldest outdoor pool in England. It is a Grade I listed building. History Christ's College bathing pool stands in the Fellows' Garden, to the north of the Fellows' Building, in the centre of Cambridge, England. There is some debate as to the date of the pool's construction. Historic England states that the pool was in existence before 1688, and most sources follow this, supporting its claim to be the oldest outdoor swimming pool in England. Simon Bradley, in the Cambridgeshire volume in the Buildings of England series, revised and reissued in 2015, gives a later date, of the mid-18th century. The pool was originally fed by water from Hobson's Conduit, a watercourse developed in the early 17th century to bring fresh water to the city. After a period of dilapidation at the end of the 20th century, the pool was renovated and reopened in 2010. It is now named the Malcolm Bowie Bathing Pool in honour of Malcolm Bowie, master of Christ's College from 2002 to 2006. The pool is a private pool, for the use of staff and students of the college. It is unheated. Architecture and description The pool is rectangular, within a neoclassical setting, comprising the summer house at one end and busts on pillars of Ralph Cudworth, John Milton and Nicholas Saunderson at the other. There is also a vase in memory of Joseph Mede. Simon Bradley considered that the refurbishment somewhat compromised the pool's charm; "The poetry of this unique Georgian enclave vanished in 2010, when the pool was given a Costa del Sol lining of bright blue". The pool is a Grade I listed structure. Gallery Notes References Sources Bradley, Simon; Pevsner, Nikolaus (2015). Cambridgeshire. The Buildings of England.

Clare College Bridge, Cambridge

Clare Bridge is the ninth bridge overall and the fifth River Cam bridge on its middle stream in Cambridge. The bridge now connects the Old Court of Clare College to Memorial Court, which was dedicated in 1926. It is a Grade I listed building. It is the oldest still-functioning bridge in Cambridge, built in 1639-40 by Thomas Grumbold (d.1659). It was restored in 1969. It is a three-span bridge in Early Renaissance style, built of Ketton stone ashlar. The balustrade has carved relief panels on the pedestals and is surmounted by ball finials. One of the fourteen stone balls has a missing section. Many different tales are told to explain the missing section of the globe second from the left on the south side of the bridge. The story most commonly cited by members of college is that the builder of the bridge was not paid the full amount for his work and so removed the segment to balance the shortfall in payment. A more likely explanation is that a wedge of stone cemented into the ball became loose and fell out. See also List of bridges in Cambridge Template:River Cam map References

Clare College Bridge

Clare College Bridge är den nionde bron totalt och den femte över floden Cam i Cambridge. Bron förbinder nu Old Court av Clare College med Memorial Court, som invigdes 1926. Det är en kulturminnesmärkt byggnad. Historia Det är den äldsta fortfarande fungerande bron i Cambridge, byggd 1639-40 av Thomas Grumbold (d. 1659). Den restaurerades 1969. Det är en bro med tre spann i tidig renässansstil, byggd av Kettonsten. Balustraden har snidade reliefpaneler på piedestalerna och kröns av kulfinialer. En av de fjorton stenkulorna har en saknad sektion. Många olika historier berättas för att förklara den saknade delen av klotet, det andra från vänster på södra sidan av bron. Den historia som oftast citeras av medlemmar i Clare College är att brobyggaren inte fick betalt hela beloppet för sitt arbete och därför tog bort segmentet för att balansera den uteblivna betalningen. En mer trolig förklaring är att en kil av sten som cementerats in i klotet lossnade och föll ut. Referenser
St Andrew's Church, Cherry Hinton

St Andrew's Church, Cherry Hinton is a Church of England parish church in Cherry Hinton, Cambridge. It is Grade I listed. The building dates from the late 12th century with a 13th-century chancel. It was constructed using locally available flint, clunch and Barnack stone (oolitic Lincolnshire limestone). History Simon Langham when Bishop of Ely (1362–1366) was a major benefactor of Peterhouse, Cambridge and gave the rectory of Cherry Hinton to the college. The church was restored and rebuilt by George Gilbert Scott Jr. in 1880. The chancel was restored in 1886 by John Thomas Micklethwaite. A daughter church, St John the Evangelist's, was founded in 1891 to serve the developing residential area between Hills Road and Cherry Hinton Road. Architecture The ashlar-faced chancel with its pairs of lancet windows (c.1230-50.) is a fine example of Early English Gothic architecture. The east window was replaced in the early Tudor period by a five-light version in the perpendicular style. The ashlar-faced tower is also in the perpendicular style though there are remnants of Norman origin in the arches. Within the tower the second bell dates from the 14th century and is the oldest in the city. In the tower is the coffin-shaped tablet of Captain Serocold (d.1794) by John Flaxman. References

Butter Cross von Bungay

Das Butter Cross von Bungay ist ein Marktkreuz in Bungay, einer Kleinstadt in der englischen Grafschaft Suffolk. Geschichte Bungay besaß seit 1382 das Recht, an jedem Donnerstag einen Wochenmarkt abhalten zu dürfen. Im März 1688 fielen große Teile der Stadt einem Brand zum Opfer, darunter auch die beiden Marktkreuze. Um den Handel möglichst schnell wieder in Schwung zu bringen, stand deren Wiedererrichtung an vorderster Stelle. Das achteckige Butter Cross auf dem Marktplatz wurde 1689 in Form einer kleinen, nach allen Seiten offenen Halle fertiggestellt. Der Name bezieht sich darauf, dass dort Händler, geschützt durch das Dach, Butter, Eier und Käse zum Verkauf anboten. 1754 wurde auf seiner Spitze eine Statue der Justitia errichtet, die vermutlich aus der Werkstatt des Londoner Metallbildhauers Henry Cheere stammt. Sie steht sowohl für einen fairen Handel als auch für die Tatsache, dass das Butter Cross Zwecken der Justiz diente. Hier warteten der Begehung von Straftaten verdächtigte Personen auf ihren Prozess, dafür bestanden in seinem Inneren ein Käfig sowie unterhalb des Bauwerks ein kleines Verlies. Im Butter Cross wurden zudem, im Falle einer entsprechenden Verurteilung, ein Pranger aufgestellt oder Auspeitschungen durchgeführt. Der Käfig wurde 1836 entfernt. 1871 erwarben der Town Reeve und seine Feoffees (als Gremium ein Vorläufer des heutigen Stadtrates) vom Duke of Norfolk zum Preis von 40 Pfund die mit der Ausübung des Marktrechtes verbundenen Rechte und Pflichten. Heute eine gemeinnützige Organisation, sind sie sowohl für den nach wie vor bestehenden Wochenmarkt als auch für den Unterhalt des Butter Cross zuständig. Beschreibung Das Butter Cross besteht aus acht durch halbrunde Bögen verbundenen Säulen, die ein kuppelförmiges Dach tragen. Dessen Bedeckung besteht ebenso aus Blei wie die Statue der Justitia, die durch ein hölzernes Podest gestützt wird. Auch die Säulen standen auf hölzernen Sockeln, die aber bei einer späteren Renovierung durch steinerne ersetzt wurden. Das Bauwerk besaß ursprünglich einen erhöhten, durch Stufen zugänglichen Bereich. Diese Konstruktion wurde 1867 entfernt. An einer der Säulen finden sich noch die eisernen Fesseln, mit denen Straftäter angekettet wurden. Das Butter Cross wird von Historic England sowohl als Listed Building der Stufe I als auch als Scheduled Monument eingestuft und steht somit unter Denkmalschutz. Corn Cross Das andere der beiden Marktkreuze, das Corn Cross, hatte ebenfalls ein Dach, unter dem Getreide verkauft wurde. Nachdem es nicht mehr als solches genutzt wurde, wurde Ende 1809 überlegt, es baldmöglichst zu entfernen, was dann 1810 auch geschah. An seiner Stelle wurde später eine bis 1933 bestehende Wasserpumpe errichtet. Heute befindet sich dort eine Straßenlaterne mit einer Wetterfahne, die an das Auftauchen des schwarzen Hundes von Bungay erinnert.

St Andrew's Church, Moretonhampstead

St Andrew's Church, Moretonhampstead is a Grade I listed parish church in the Church of England Diocese of Exeter in Moretonhampstead, Devon. History The church comprises an early 15th-century tower, with a late 15th-century nave and aisles. In 1856–57, the church was re-pewed. The north side was started in October 1856 and the south side completed shortly afterwards. The medieval chancel screen was reportedly in a poor condition and removed. A further restoration was carried out between 1904 and 1905. The chancel was lengthened by 9 feet (2.7 m) to make room for an organ which was the gift of Mr Tilby of Teignmouth in memory of his wife. A stained glass window was added to the chancel in memory of William Henry Smith. A new chancel screen was erected to a similar design to that removed in 1856. All of the seating was replaced with oak pews. The wooden flooring in the aisles was replaced with Minton tiling. The old gallery at the west end of the church was removed, and the roof replaced by an oak wagon roof. The walls of the church had the plaster removed, and central heating was installed. The new altar was consecrated by the Bishop of Exeter on 6 April 1905. Rectors Organ The organ was installed by Hele & Co of Plymouth in 1905 at a cost of £800 given in memory of Pauline Eugenie Tilby. The organ was opened on Thursday 15 June 1905 by Daniel Joseph Wood, organist of Exeter Cathedral. An electric blower was fitted in 1946. It now comprises 3 manuals and 34 speaking stops. A specification of the organ can be found in the National Pipe Organ Register. Organists George Osborne Brown 1854 – 1860 Miss E.A.

St Andrew's Church, Westhall

St Andrew's Church is located in the village of Westhall near Halesworth. It is an active Anglican parish church in the deanery of Waveney and Blyth, part of the archdeaconry of Suffolk, and the Diocese of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich. Layout The church is of flint construction and comprises a nave, south aisle chancel and tower. The church has a non-standard design and layout. The tower, dating from the 13th century with a post-Reformation bell-stage, splits into both a northern and easterly direction. The eastern section being a Norman construct, while to the north is a large 13th-century thatched nave containing 19th-century pews. Beyond the nave is a 14th-century chancel. The unusual layout is due to the church having been extended from the original Norman building and the original church becoming what is now the church's south aisle. The eastern entrance dates from around 1100 and stonework including depictions of humans and animals including bird head grotesques and human-animal hybrids as well as unfinished faces are still visible. Font and screens Located in the nave is a font with eight panels, seven of which are sacramental panels depicting the Sacraments of the Catholic Church. The panel depicting the Eucharistic sacrament was used as the cover illustration for Eamon Duffy's book The Stripping of the Altars. The eighth panel shows the baptism of Christ. The nave also contains a painted screen depicting various saints. The south side of the screen shows the Saints Etheldreda, Sitha, Agnes, Brigit of Kildare, Catherine of Alexandria, Dorothy, Margaret of Antioch and Apollonia. The north side of the screen contains images of Saint James, St Leonard, Saint Michael and Saint Clement. Alongside these images on the north side are depictions of the Transfiguration of Jesus. Christ on a mountain top between the two figures of Moses and Elijah. It is the only surviving medieval screen representation of the Transfiguration in England. The final panel on the north side depicts Saint Anthony of Egypt. Wall paintings Located on the north wall is a painting of Saint Christopher and other figures including Moses. Other wall paintings include a flower-surrounded consecration cross beside the south door and a niche alcove in the eastern side of a window in the south wall. Alongside the painted niche and consecration cross there are surviving traces of a large painting consisting of seven large roundels surrounded in leafwork. Monuments and brass-work In the south-east corner of the church is the tomb of Nicholas Bohun (1602) which includes a brass plaque. On the south wall is the coat of arms of George III. In the chancel are located the remains of two Chalice brasses. The chancel ceiling depicts the Holy Trinity, with God the Father holding the Crucified Christ between his knees.

Moot Hall, Hexham

The Moot Hall is a former judicial structure in The Market Place, Hexham, Northumberland, England. The structure, which currently accommodates an art gallery on the ground floor and the museums department of Northumberland County Council on the upper floors, is a Grade I listed building. History The building was commissioned by the Archbishop of York, Alexander Neville, as a gatehouse to an enclosure now known as Hallgate, where the Old Gaol stands. The Moot Hall was designed in the Medieval style, built in rubble masonry and was completed in around 1379. The design involved a four-storey tower, with a three-storey annexe to the left, facing onto the Market Place. The tower featured a two-storey round headed recess containing a vaulted carriageway on the ground floor and a bi-partite mullioned window with cusped heads on the first floor. There were lancet windows on the floors above and a parapet at roof level. The annex was fenestrated by a single window with a cusped head on the first floor and by a casement window on the second floor; it was surmounted by a heavily machicolated parapet. Internally, the principal rooms were a vaulted space on the ground floor, the courtroom on the first floor and the bailiff's hall on the second floor. The courtroom served as the main courtroom of the former Liberty or Peculiar of Hexhamshire until the county was absorbed into Northumberland in 1572. After that it was used as a venue for the midsummer quarter sessions until 1838, and the building still stands as one of the best surviving examples of a medieval courthouse in the north of England. A collection of 10,000 books, which had been presented by a local grocery chain proprietor, Joseph William Brough, in 1948, was stored in the building and remained there until it was relocated to a new library in the central section of the Queen's Hall in 1983. The upper storeys of the building subsequently accommodated the museums department of Tynedale District Council, and since the introduction of unitary authorities in 2009, they have accommodated the museums department of Northumberland County Council. Meanwhile, the vaulted space on the ground floor has been made available for hire as an art gallery. See also Grade I listed buildings in Northumberland References
