Old Kea Church

Die Old Kea Church ist eine anglikanische Kirche der Church of England in der gleichnamigen kleinen Ortschaft südlich von Truro in Cornwall. Die Kirche ist seit 1986 als Kulturdenkmal der Kategorie Grade II eingestuft. Der frei stehende Kirchturm einer mittelalterlichen Vorgängerkirche auf dem Kirchhof ist seit 1967 als Kulturdenkmal der Kategorie Grade II* eingestuft. Der Turm ist eine weithin sichtbare Landmarke. Geschichte Der Kirchenstandort geht vermutlich auf eine frühe keltische Klostergründung des heiligen Kea von Landkey aus dem 5. Jahrhundert zurück, dem die heutige Kirche auch geweiht ist. Von der mittelalterlichen St. Kea-Kirche hat sich lediglich der repräsentative spätgotische Kirchturm aus dem 15. Jahrhundert erhalten. Zum originalen Baubestand gehören ein Portal sowie ein Fenster darüber im Perpendicular Style. Das Obergeschoss mit Turmspitzen und Fensteröffnungen stellt vermutlich eine Arbeit des 17. Jahrhunderts in Neo-Perpendicular dar. Die neugotische Kirche St. Kea nordöstlich des Turmes entstand 1862, mit Vergrößerungen 1869, als Ersatz für die mittelalterliche Kirche. Einzig der Turm blieb erhalten, weil sich der Earl of Falmouth, dem der Herrensitz Tregothnan auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite des Truro River gehörte, die Erhaltung des Blicks auf die Landmarke wünschte. Die neue Kirche selber entstand zunächst als einschiffige, langgezogene Saalkirche mit anschließendem, im Osten gerade geschlossenen Chorraum und einem Glockengiebel über der Westfassade. 1869 wurde dem Langhaus ein südliches Seitenschiff mit Vorhalle angefügt. Da sich der Dorfmittelpunkt weiter westlich verschoben hatte, wurde dort in New Kea 1894 eine neue anglikanische Pfarrkirche errichtet, die allen Heiligen als All Hallows Church geweiht wurde.

St Andrew's Church, Cawsand

St Andrew's Church is a Church of England church in Cawsand, Cornwall, England, UK. The church was built in 1877–78 and has been Grade II listed since 1987. History St Andrew's was built as a chapel of ease to the parish church of St Germanus. Owing to the approximate distance of a mile between the parish church and the village, it had long been felt that residents would be better served by a new church, particularly the sick and elderly. Initially a former brewery building was hired in the village during 1876 for use as a place of worship, however when part of it was transformed into a school, efforts were made towards the construction of a purpose-built church. Kenelm William Edward Edgcumbe, the 6th Earl of Mount Edgcumbe, was a major benefactor of the proposal and he donated a plot of land for the church, the local stone used for its construction and a sum of money. Further financial donations were received from local residents, including Rev. R. Ley and prominent landowner Mr. C. S. Vallack, and the War Office. The plans for the church were drawn up by Mr. Samuel Johns of Saltash and the foundation stone laid by the Earl of Mount Edgcumbe on 29 May 1877 in the presence of a large crowd. As part of the ceremony, a procession traveled from the temporary place of worship to the site of the new church, including members of the clergy, choirs of Maker and Rame churches and Sunday School children. The church was built by Mr. J. W. Hosking of Saltash, with Mr. Bryant of Devonport supplying the pitch pine work. St Andrew's was opened on 28 May 1878. The opening services commenced with Holy Communion at 8:30am, followed by morning prayer around 11:45am and an evening service. The morning prayer was attended by the Bishop of Truro, Edward White Benson, who formally opened the church and preached. At the time of its opening, the church cost just under £1,000. Owing to limited funds, a chancel and vestry was not included as part of the original construction work, although Mr. Johns made future provision in his plans for them. The porch doubled as a temporary vestry until a permanent one could be built. The intended chancel was added in 1883, built by Mr. W. B. Carne of Cawsand and opened on 30 November of that year. A vestry was added in the early 20th century. Architecture St Andrew's is built of sandstone rubble with white brick dressings and a slate roof in the Early English style. It was designed to accommodate 300 persons and is made up of a nave, chancel, north porch and south vestry. The church has a number of lancet-shaped windows and a bell turret sits on the west gable. All of the church's windows are lattice glazed and the chancel has a three-light window on its east side. The church fittings include a wooden pulpit and octagonal stone font. References
Guisborough Town Hall

Guisborough Town Hall is a municipal building on Westgate in Guisborough, North Yorkshire, England. The structure, which has mainly been used as a venue for magistrates' court hearings, is a Grade II listed building. History The first building on the site was a medieval tollbooth which enabled Sir Thomas Chaloner and his descendants, who were the lords of the manor, to collect tolls from pilgrims travelling to Gisborough Priory. The tollbooth was demolished in the early 19th century to make way for the current building. The current building was designed in the neoclassical style, built in sandstone and was completed in 1821. The stone was recovered from a 16th-century manor house known as Tocketts Hall, which had been the home of General John Hale: Hale had married into the Chaloner family and the house subsequently came into the ownership of the politician, Robert Chaloner, shortly before it was demolished in the early 19th century. The town hall was initially arcaded with a shambles on the ground floor and an assembly room on the first floor; a second floor was added in 1870. The design involved a symmetrical main frontage with five bays facing onto Westgate; there were three segmental windows on the ground floor, five sash windows on the first floor and five rounded headed windows on the second floor. The central section of three bays was flanked by full-height pilasters supporting a pediment containing a cartouche with the coat of arms of the Chaloner family in the tympanum. In the 19th century the magistrates held petty sessions in the building once a fortnight and the lord of the manor held his hearings in the building once a year. Although the area became an urban district in 1894, rather than using the town hall, the new council established itself in council offices in Fountain Street. Instead the town hall continued to be used for magistrates' court hearings and also accommodated the offices of several firms of solicitors. Ownership of the town hall subsequently passed to a pub company which got into financial difficulties: after becoming vacant in 2013, the building was acquired by Redcar and Cleveland Borough Council at auction in September 2015. Renovations Following the award of grants of £1.1 million from the National Lottery Heritage Fund and £300,000 from the Tees Valley Combined Authority, work started on the refurbishment of the building in January 2021. The building was renovated by the Durham based firm, Hall Construction, and the local Guisborough firm, Sollet Bros: works include the conversion of the ground floor for use as a heritage and information centre and as a retail unit, and the conversion of the upper floors for use as visitor accommodation and as commercial space. The building has 479.6 square metres (5,162 sq ft) of available floor area for tenants, of which the council plans the upper floors to become accommodation to support Guisborough's tourism industry. The building officially re-opened on 9 April 2022 – featuring a gin distillery, accommodation, and a community information and heritage centre.

Widnes Town Hall

Widnes Town Hall is a municipal building in Victoria Road in Widnes, Cheshire, England. The town hall, which was the headquarters of Widnes Borough Council, is a Grade II listed building. History After significant industrial growth in the second half of the 19th century, particularly in relation to the chemical industry, members of the local board of health decided to procure a town hall: the site they selected had been open land in what was then little more than a village established close to the Gossage chemical works. The new building, which was designed by F. and G. Holme in the Renaissance style and built with terracotta dressings, was completed in 1885. After the building became the headquarters of the new municipal borough of Widnes in 1892, King George V visited the building and met with civic leaders on 7 July 1913. The building ceased to be the seat of local government in 1967, when the council moved to the new Municipal Building on Kingsway. In 1982 the building became the home of the Halton Chemical Industry Museum, a temporary exhibition funded by the Manpower Services Commission to celebrate the centenary of the Society of Chemical Industry. As well as chemical industry exhibits, there were also displays dealing with other aspects of local history. The success of the exhibition led to the formation of the Museum of the Chemical Industry (subsequently renamed the Catalyst Science Discovery Centre) at Gossage House in Widnes in 1989. The town hall then became the home of the Halton Business Forum, a provider of support to local businesses. The forum also relocated, in around 2004, to the new Forum Building at Widnes Waterfront, which had been established as the Borough's economic development zone. The town hall was then left empty and deteriorating, until a developer, Stephen Lawler, acquired the building, and carried out some limited restoration works. Although the rear of the ground floor and the whole of the first floor were left undeveloped and unoccupied, the front part of the ground floor re-opened as a bar and night club known as "The Establishment". Description The building is in the Renaissance style, with terracotta dressings. The design involves a symmetrical main frontage with nine bays facing onto Victoria Square with the end bays slightly projecting forward; the central bay, which also slightly projects forward, features a doorway with brackets supporting an open pediment containing a carved tympanum. The doorway is flanked by twin pilasters supporting griffins bearing shields; there is a central sash window on the first floor and a smaller sash window on the attic floor, above which there is an inscription "MDCCCLXXXV" (1885).

St Jude's Church, Plymouth

St Jude's Church is a Church of England church in Plymouth, Devon, England. It was designed by the Plymouth architect James Hine and constructed in 1875–76, with the work being carried out by Messrs Blatchford and Son of Tavistock for £3,600. Construction had begun by the time the memorial stone was laid on 26 October 1875 and the Bishop of Exeter Frederick Temple consecrated the church on 27 November 1876. It was the one of a number of churches to be erected under the auspices of the Three Towns Church Extension Society. A tower and spire were added to the church in 1881–82, with the work being carried out by Mr. Philip Blowey of Plymouth, followed by a church room in 1887–88. St Jude's has been Grade II listed since 1975. It is described by Historic England as having an early and mid Gothic style. The church is briefly constructed using Plymouth limestone, with dressings in Portland and Bath stone. Upon completion it was able to seat approximately 650 people.

St Ives Town Hall

St Ives Town Hall is a municipal structure in Market Hill, St Ives, Cambridgeshire, England. The structure, which is the meeting place of St Ives Town Council, is a Grade II listed building. History The building was originally commissioned by a currier, John Warner, as a private residence known as Stanley House. It was designed by a local architect, George Allen, in the neoclassical style, built by a local contractor, Henry Bennett and Son, in brown brick with stone dressings and was completed in 1850. The design involved a symmetrical main frontage with three bays facing onto Market Hill; the central bay featured a doorway with a fanlight, a rusticated archivolt and a keystone. On the first floor there was a three-light pedimented window and on the second floor there was a small square window. The outer bays were fenestrated by three-light windows with archivolts on the ground floor, sash windows with brackets and cornices on the first floor and small square windows on the second floor. The first floor windows also all had stone balconies. At roof level there was a modillioned cornice which jutted out over the pavement. Internally, the principal room was the drawing room on the first floor. After Warner died in 1872, the house passed to his son, William Wigston Warner, who served five separate terms as mayor of St Ives. In the early 1920s, the Warner family decided to sell the house and, after a brief period of ownership by Lloyds Bank, it was acquired by St Ives Borough Council for £1,200 in 1924. There was strong opposition to the acquisition: there was rioting in the streets and some local people even stood for election with a manifesto of opposing the acquisition. The council commissioned a programme of works to convert the drawing room on the first floor into a council chamber and to establish an office for the town clerk, although it was later claimed that the works were carried out without planning consent. The town hall continued to serve as the headquarters of the borough council for much of the 20th century, but ceased to be the local seat of government when the enlarged Huntingdonshire District Council was formed in 1974. It continued to function as the offices and meeting place of St Ives Town Council, and also provided office accommodation for various local organisations including the Cambridgeshire Branch of CPRE, The Countryside Charity, as well as acting as a place of worship for the local branch of the United Reformed Church. An extensive programme of improvement works, including the installation of a lift, was completed in 2009. References
Newland Park, Chalfont St Peter

Newland Park is a Grade II listed country house and estate near the village of Chalfont St Peter in Buckinghamshire. History Henry Gott bought Newland Park in c. 1770 where he entertained King George III, and, in 1785, erected an obelisk called Gott's Monument to commemorate the death of a stag killed during a hunt with the king. The estate was purchased by Thomas Allen in 1809 after Gott's death, and was inherited by his son Thomas Newland Allen on his death in 1829. Mrs Edmund Stevens, Allen's daughter, inherited Newland Park on her father's death in 1898, and sold the estate to Henry Andrade Harben in 1903. The gardens were designed by Thomas Hayton Mawson in 1903. After Henry Andrade Harben's death in 1910, the estate was inherited by his son Henry Devenish Harben, under whom Newland Park became a refuge for suffragettes from 1910 to 1921; he and his wife Agnes Harben (who later founded the United Suffragists) was visited by Emmeline Pankhurst, George Bernard Shaw, Sidney and Beatrice Webb and H. G. Wells. In April 1939, the estate was purchased by North British and Mercantile Insurance and staff were evacuated to the newly erected offices and living accommodation in August. The Newland Park Training College was an emergency teacher training college opened at the estate on 1 March 1946. Newland Park College of Education merged with High Wycombe College of Art and Technology to form Buckinghamshire College of Higher Education in 1975. In 1976, the Chiltern Open Air Museum was established in the grounds of the estate. In 1989, Amersham Hockey Club was granted a 28-year licence by the college to operate on the estate, and an astroturf pitch was built with funding from Chiltern District Council for use by college students and the club, in the following year. The television series Class Act (1994-1995) and Thief Takers (1995-1997) were partly filmed at Newland Park House. In 1999, the college was awarded university college status, and became known as Buckinghamshire Chilterns University College. The 2000 film Cor, Blimey! was partly filmed at the main entrance to Newland Park. The university was renamed Buckinghamshire New University in 2007, and the university closed its campus at Newland Park on 1 August 2009. The university sold Newland Park to Comer Group on 1 July 2011, and, in 2012, Newland Park House and gardens were leased to an events and weddings company. Newland College opened in September 2015, and was renamed Chalfonts Independent Grammar School in 2017. The Amersham and Chalfont Hockey Club (the successor of Amersham Hockey Club) ceased to operate at Newland Park and relocated to Amersham in spring 2017. The Comer Group was granted planning permission to build 309 homes at the estate in 2016, but came into conflict with the Chiltern Open Air Museum in 2022 due to a failure to transfer the freehold as per the terms of the planning permission.
