Lavender Hill Cemetery

Lavender Hill Cemetery is a cemetery in Cedar Road, Enfield, London, administered by the London Borough of Enfield. The cemetery opened in 1872 and has two facing chapels inside the entrance, one for Anglicans and another for non-conformists. The gates to the cemetery featured in all but the final episode of British sitcom On the Buses as the terminus of Stan and Jack's bus route: 'Cemetery Gates'. Creation and design The Lavender Hill Burial Board was created in 1871 and the cemetery was opened in 1872. The site includes a sandstone lodge and gateway and two facing gothic chapels designed by Thomas J. Hill, one for Anglicans and another for non-conformists, the latter subsequently turned into a store. The grounds were laid out on a serpentine scheme with many trees near the entrance on the south side. Today the grounds total 28 acres (11.3 ha) plus a 12-acre (4.8 ha) extension known as the Strayfield Road Cemetery which opened in 1997. Management The cemetery is administered by the London Borough of Enfield. It has experienced difficulties due to poor ground conditions and in 2013, subsidence was blamed by Enfield borough on water saturation.

The Abbot's Kitchen in Oxford, England, is an early chemistry laboratory based on the Abbot's Kitchen at Glastonbury Abbey in Somerset, England, a mediaeval 14th-century octagonal building that served as the kitchen at the abbey. History Chemistry was first recognized as a separate discipline at Oxford University with the construction of this laboratory, attached to the Oxford University Museum of Natural History, and opening in 1860. The laboratory is a stone-built structure to the right of the museum, built in the Victorian Gothic style. The building was one of the first ever purpose-built chemical laboratories anywhere and was extended in 1878. A further major extension adding three wings was completed in 1957. It is now part of the new graduate college of the University, Reuben College, which opened in 2023.

All Saints Church, Watermillock

All Saints Church is a Grade II listed Church of England parish church in the village of Watermillock, Cumbria. It serves the scattered settlement of Watermillock, as well as outlying farms and hamlets on the northern shore of Ullswater. History The community's original church, constructed in the 13th century, was located close to the shore of Ullswater on the site of what is now Old Church House. This church was burnt down by Scottish raiders in the 15th century, and a new building was built on the current site and consecrated by Owen Oglethorpe in 1558. In 1880, this church was described as "whitewashed within and without, and walls green with damp. There was a gallery, but no organ, chancel or glass". The following year, the Tudor church was demolished to be replaced by the current church, constructed of slate and red sandstone. The present nave stands on the foundations of the older church, but the chancel is an addition. In 1884 the church tower was rebuilt to give it its current height. The chancel was built in memory of the Reverend David Pritchard, who was rector from 1876 to 1880. The reredos was installed in 1934, in memory of Mr T.E. Forster. The organ was made by Wilkinson of Kendal in 1888. The choir stalls, pulpit, pews and west end screen, all date from 1881. The communion table was made in 1970. In 1889, the Spring Rice Window was installed in memory of Lady Farrer (née Evelyn Mary Spring Rice), the widow of Thomas Farrer, 2nd Baron Farrer, who had been born in Watermillock. The church contains stone memorials to Sir Cecil Spring Rice and his brother, Lt. Gerald Spring Rice. See also Listed buildings in Matterdale References
St Thomas, Brightside

St Thomas is a former Anglican church in the Brightside area of Sheffield in England which now serves as a circus training school. The Sheffield and Rotherham Railway opened in 1838, and both industry and housing spread along its route through the Lower Don Valley. Despite its booming population, the district of Brightside did not have an Anglican church, the local congregation instead meeting in a licensed room with a capacity of only seventy people. However, the district had two large Methodist chapels, and the Church Commissioners supported the construction of an Anglican church with a grant of £100. The total cost of construction was £1600, with the remainder being raised by subscription. A site of around one acre off Holywell Road was donated by the Earl Fitzwilliam, and construction began in 1852, Canon Blackburn laying the foundations stone. It was completed the following year, with consecration by the Archbishop of York, Thomas Musgrave, taking place in 1854. It was designed by Flockton & Son, local architects who had already designed many buildings in Sheffield, including Christ Church, Pitsmoor, and the Anglican Chapel at the Sheffield General Cemetery. In the Gothic Revival style, it has a nave and single south aisle, with a tower and spire at the south-western corner. Initially, the church remained part of the parish of Grimesthorpe, but in 1864, it was given its own parish. In 1873, a memorial was erected to William Mannifield, who had been killed in an accident at the nearby Brightside Colliery. George Pace conducted much work on the church, providing new decorations in 1957, then a new altar, reredos and lectern in the 1960s. It was Grade II listed in 1973, but was closed and deconsecrated in 1979. During the 1980s, it was used as the Sheffield School of Gymnastics, then in 1995 it was restored as part of the TV series Challenge Anneka, to serve as a training centre for Greentop Circus.

Parish church of St Giles, St Giles in the Wood

The parish church of St Giles, in the village of St Giles in the Wood, Devon, England, was founded in 1309. It was completely rebuilt in the 16th century, and again in 1862–3 by local landowner Mark Rolle, who retained the outer walls, west tower, and various monuments to his family. In 1967, a chapel named after Mary Withecombe was created out of part of the south aisle, in which smaller congregations now meet. History The church was built in 1309 when licence was obtained from the Bishop of Exeter to build a chapel of ease because the church at Great Torrington was considered too far for the convenience of the local inhabitants. The licence was obtained by Sir Richard Merton, who held the advowson of Great Torrington. The church was dedicated to St Giles the Hermit, and its benefactors included Sir William Herward of Dodscott, and a member of the Pollard family of Way, Barry of Winscott, de Stevenstone of Stevenstone, and Dynant of Whitesley. It was completely rebuilt in the 16th century, in the Perpendicular-Gothic style. Of this building, only the outer walls and the west tower, which contains six bells, remain from its restoration of 1862–3 by John Hayward, funded by Mark Rolle. Rolle also donated the marble and alabaster pulpit. A memorial cross erected by the parishioners in his memory stands in the churchyard to the east of the church directly in front of the lychgate. In 1879 an organ chamber and vestry were added. The local historian W. G. Hoskings did not care for Rolle's restoration of the church and wrote in 1954 that he "spared no expense to make it as ugly as his own house", referring to Stevenstone of which Hoskings had already written: "The richest man in Devon built himself the ugliest house." In 1967, a chapel named after Mary Withecombe was created out of part of the south aisle, in which smaller congregations now meet. References
Christ Church, Pitsmoor

Christ Church is an Anglican church in the Pitsmoor district, north of Sheffield City Centre in South Yorkshire, England. It is a Grade II listed building. History By the mid-19th century, rapid population growth in the north of Sheffield led the Church of England to construct new churches in the area. Formerly covered by the Brightside area of Sheffield parish, the Ecclesiastical Commissioners created three new parishes, of Brightside, Pitsmoor, and Wicker, and arranged for the construction of a new church in each parish. The Ecclesiastical Commissioners gave £507 towards the construction of the church, with £2200 being raised in private donations; the Commissioners also gave an endowment of £150 per year. The building was designed by local architects Flockton & Son and constructed from 1849 to 1850. It was consecrated on 15 August 1850. The Pevsner Guide describes the church as "large and handsome, built to cater for an affluent congregation". Returns of 1851 state that the church was attracting around 200 people to each of three sittings. The church was restored in 1907, while most of the fixtures and fittings were replaced in 1913, including the font and pulpit, and the floor of the chancel and baptistery, which is a mosaic. Several stained glass windows were added over the years. To the east is one of the Crucifixion and Ascension, featuring Saint Wilfred and Saint Helena, dating from 1903. To the north are two dating from 1915: one of Christ Blessing Little Children, and one designed by Kayll and Reed of Works of Charity. In the 1980s, a church hall, designed by Ken Murta and Austin Peter Fawcett, was added to the south of the church. Christ Church is a member of Inclusive Church. Notable people Notable people associated with the church include Martyn Snow, Bishop of Leicester, who served as vicar from 2001 until 2010, and John Marsh, former Archdeacon of Blackburn, who was curate in the 1980s.
