East Barsham Manor

East Barsham Manor is an important work of Tudor architecture, a leading and early example of a prodigy house, originally built in the 1520s. It is located in the village of East Barsham, about 2.5 miles (4.1 km) north of the town of Fakenham and 2.1 miles (3.4 km) south west of the village of Walsingham in the English county of Norfolk. It is protected as a Grade I listed building. History The two-storey manor house was built for Sir Henry Fermor in the 1520s. It was visited many times by Henry VIII with Anne Boleyn and Catherine of Aragon, including using it as a base for visiting the nearby Walsingham shrine. After the Fermors the house passed to the Calthorpes who had married into the Fermor family. Later it was owned by the L'Estranges c1720 and then the Astleys. During these years, the house barely changed. However, in the 18th century it fell into decline. By the 19th century it was largely derelict, and was visited by lovers of romantic ruins. It was restored in the 1920s and 1930s. The house was owned for many years by Sir John Guinness, a former diplomat who also helped found the National Heritage Memorial Fund. He sold it after the death of his wife in 2014 for £2.75m to the artist and entrepreneur Roy Griffiths. In 2025 a painting of the Madonna and Child by Antonio Solario, which had been kept at the house by Baron and Baroness de Dozsa, was returned to its rightful owner after being identified as stolen. Brickwork East Barsham is noteworthy for its ornate Tudor brickwork, and its cluster of 10 chimneys. Sir Henry built it not only with "a brick gatehouse, ribbed, turreted and emblazoned with his coat of arms, but a grand exuberance of chimneys, clustered together in double banks of five, each individual stack to a different design." It was built contemporaneously with Sutton Place, Surrey (1520s), also built in brick, to which it is comparable. Architectural legacy The entrance front of Dalmeny House in Scotland, designed by William Wilkins in 1814, is based on the facade of East Barsham Manor. References See also Tudor architecture
East Barsham Manor

East Barsham Manor est une œuvre importante de l'architecture Tudor, un exemple majeur et précoce d'une maison prodige, construite à l'origine dans les années 1520. Il est situé dans le village d'East Barsham, à environ 4,1 kilomètres (2,5 mi) au nord de la ville de Fakenham et à 3,4 kilomètres (2,1 mi) au sud-ouest du village de Walsingham dans le comté anglais de Norfolk. Il est protégé en tant que bâtiment classé Grade I. Histoire Le manoir de deux étages est construit pour Henry Fermor dans les années 1520. Henri VIII s'y rend à plusieurs reprises avec Anne Boleyn et Catherine d'Aragon, notamment en l'utilisant comme base pour visiter le sanctuaire voisin de Walsingham. Après les Fermor, la maison passe aux Calthorpe qui se sont mariés dans la famille Fermor. Plus tard, il appartient aux L'Estranges vers 1720, puis aux Astley. Au cours de ces années, la maison change peu. Cependant, au XVIIIe siècle, le manoir entre en déclin. Au XIXe siècle, il est en grande partie à l'abandon et est visitée par les amateurs de ruines romantiques. Il est restauré dans les années 1920 et 1930. La maison appartient pendant de nombreuses années à John Guinness, un ancien diplomate qui aide également à fonder le National Heritage Memorial Fund. Il la vend après la mort de sa femme en 2014 pour 2,75 millions de livres sterling à l'artiste et entrepreneur Roy Griffiths qui essaie maintenant également de vendre la propriété. Maçonnerie East Barsham est remarquable pour ses briques Tudor ornées et son groupe de 10 cheminées. Henry la construit non seulement avec "une guérite en briques, nervurée, à tourelles et arborant ses armoiries, mais une grande exubérance de cheminées, regroupées en doubles rangées de cinq, chaque pile individuelle à un design différent" . Il est construit en même temps que Sutton Place, Surrey (années 1520), également construit en brique, auquel il est comparable. La façade d'entrée de Dalmeny House en Écosse, conçue par William Wilkins en 1814, est basée sur la façade d'East Barsham Manor.

St Mary's Church, Eryholme

St Mary's Church is an Anglican church in Eryholme, a village in North Yorkshire, in England. The church lies on high ground, and is set back from the village's main street. The village was recorded in the Domesday Book and appears to have had a church at the time, a chapel of ease to St Agatha's Church, Gilling West. The oldest surviving above-ground part of the current church is the north arcade, constructed in about 1200, but the foundations of the nave and chancel may be earlier. The very short tower probably dates from later in the 13th century. The nave and chancel were rebuilt in the 14th century, perhaps following a purported Scottish raid on the village in 1319. A belfry was added in the 16th century. In 1887, the church was finally given its own parish, but by this time it was in poor repair. In about 1890, the church was heavily restored, with a new vestry, porch and roof added, a new tower arch, some of the windows replaced, and the floor lowered by one foot. The building was grade II* listed in 1968. It is built in red and brown sandstone with tiled roofs, and consists of a nave, a north aisle, a south porch, a chancel with a north vestry, and a west tower. The tower is low and small, with two stages, quoins, a round-arched bell opening on the west and north sides, each with a chamfered surround and stone slate louvres, and an embattled parapet. Some medieval material has been repositioned inside the porch, including a human figure known as the "Eryholme Madonna". This is of uncertain date, but may well be late mediaeval work associated with the Virgin Mary. Inside the church is a simple font, dating from about 1200.

All Saints' Church, Manfield

All Saints' Church is the parish church of Manfield, a village in North Yorkshire, in England. The church was built in the 12th century, consisting of a nave and chancel. In about 1240, north and south aisles were added, and the doorway was moved to the new south wall. About 1330, the chancel was rebuilt, the nave extended one bay to the west, and a north arcade added. A tower was added in the 16th century. The church was restored between 1849 and 1855, the work including a new south porch, and the replacement of many of the windows. The church was grade II* listed in 1968. It is built in sandstone with stone slate roofs, and consists of a nave with a clerestory, north and south aisles, a south porch, a chancel with a north vestry, and a west tower. The tower has three stages, stepped diagonal buttresses, a chamfered plinth, a projecting stair turret, a string course, a west window, a clock face, two-light bell openings, and an embattled parapet. The clock was installed in 1841. Inside, there is an early piscina, a sedilia, an altar rail which is probably early 18th century, and a font and pulpit in marble from about 1876. There are three wall monuments to the Witham family, some Mediaeval grave covers, and an oak chest dated 1688.

Alfred's Hall

Alfred's Hall is a ruined folly in Cirencester Park, Gloucestershire, England. The Grade II* listed building dates from 1721 and is "probably the first Gothick sham ruin to be built in England". History The building was designed by the local member of parliament, Allen Bathurst, 1st Earl Bathurst and his friend, the poet Alexander Pope. The original 1721 structure was enlarged in 1732 and altered in the 19th century. This included the installation of sculpture, battlements, windows and doors from the manor house at Sapperton. Vandalism in the early 20th century damaged the building. Only one room survives, the other having collapsed in 1989. It is now on the Heritage at Risk Register maintained by Historic England. Its condition is described as "very bad", with an immediate risk of further rapid deterioration or loss of fabric". In 2019 a plan was drawn up for repair and stabilisation, however there was no evidence of work having started in 2021. Architecture The battlemented two-storey limestone building has ashlar dressings. Parts of the two-bay front survive and are supported by buttresses. The surviving room inside is approximately 12.6 metres (41 ft) by 4.8 metres (16 ft) and has the remains of oak panelling. References

The oldest parts of the current church are the south aisle and south doorway, which date from the early 14th century. The chancel and vestry are 15th century, while the tower dates from about 1550. It was heavily restored by George Fowler Jones in 1857, the work including rebuilding much of the nave, most of the windows, and replacing the roof. The chancel was remodelled in 1877 by Eden Nesfield. The church was grade II* listed in 1969. The church is built of sandstone with Westmorland slate roofs. It consists of a nave, north and south aisles, a chancel with a north vestry and organ chamber, and a west tower. The tower has three stages, diagonal buttresses, a southeast stair turret, a three-light west window, a clock face on the west side, two-light bell openings, with cinquefoil heads, continuous decorated lintels and hood moulds, and an embattled parapet with coats of arms. Inside the church is a 14th-century piscina, in the south aisle. The sanctuary has decorative tiles made by Nesfield with a mural above depicting angels ascending to Heaven, while the Carpenter chapel has similar tiling, with bas relief plasterwork depicting maritime and pastoral scenes from the Bible. In the south wall are part of four Mediaeval tomb slabs, while next to the pulpit is part of an Anglo-Danish cross shaft. There is a large black marble slab commemorating Henry Jenkins, who died at the supposed age of 169.

Oxnop Hall

Oxnop Hall is a historic building near Muker in North Yorkshire, in England. The date the farmhouse was built is uncertain, but it has a datestone reading 1685, so was either built or altered at that time. It was the home of George Kearton, a boxer and huntsman, who died in 1764, when he claimed to be 125 years old. The building was grade II* listed in 1966; Historic England describes it as "the best house of its type in Swaledale". In 2018, it remained in use as a farmhouse, and has more recently also served as a bed and breakfast. The house is built of stone on a boulder plinth, with sandstone dressings, quoins and a stone slate roof with stone copings and shaped kneelers. It has two storeys, five bays, and a rear stair turret. On the front is a two-storey gabled porch containing a basket-arched doorway with a moulded chamfered surround, a dated and initialled lintel, and a hood mould, above which is an inscribed and dated panel. On the front are fire windows and a single-light window, and the other windows are mullioned or mullioned and transomed with hood moulds.

Durham Crown Court

Durham Crown Court is a Crown Court venue which deals with criminal cases at Old Elvet, Durham, England. Located immediately to the north of Durham Prison, it is a Grade II* listed building. History The original venue for the assize courts in Durham was the old Shire Hall, also known as the County House, beside Palace Green; this "inconvenient building" had been established by Bishop John Cosin in the 1660s. In the early 19th century, it was decided to commission a more substantial courthouse; the site chosen, on the south side of Old Elvet, had been granted by Bishop William de St-Calais to the Prior and Convent of Durham in the late 11th century. The building was designed by George Moneypenny and Ignatius Bonomi in the neoclassical style, built in ashlar stone and was officially opened on 14 August 1811. The design involved a symmetrical main frontage of seven bays facing north onto Court Lane. The central section of three bays, which was projected forward, featured a tetrastyle portico formed by Tuscan order columns supporting a pediment. There central section contained three double-doors on the ground floor and three sash windows, which were protected by wrought iron guardrails, on the first floor. The outer bays were also fenestrated by sash windows and the end bays were also slightly projected forward. Internally, the building was laid out to accommodate four courtrooms. Following the completion of the new building, the old Shire Hall at Palace Green was demolished and the Diocesan Registry (now the Durham University Music Library) was built on the site in 1820. A large prison was opened, just behind the courthouse, in 1819. The interior was extensively refurbished to a design by the borough architect, William Crozier, in 1870. Notable cases included the trial and conviction of Mary Ann Cotton, in March 1873, for murdering her two sons, her stepson and her husband. The building served as the first meeting place of Durham County Council when it was established in 1889. The council later moved to its own purpose-built headquarters at Shire Hall, also on Old Elvet, in 1898. Following the implementation of the Courts Act 1971, the former assizes courthouse was re-designated Durham Crown Court.

Church of St Catherine, Ludham

St Catherine's Church is a Church of England church in Ludham, Norfolk. It is noteworthy for its tympanum and rood screen, both painted and both pre-reformation survivals. The church is recorded in the National Heritage List for England as a grade I listed building, and is dedicated to St Catherine of Alexandria, whose symbol - the wheel - appears in the spandrels of the hammerbeam roof. History The decorated gothic west tower and chancel date from the 14th century, while the perpendicular gothic nave and aisles date from the 15th century. However, a church is known to have existed on the site from the 11th century onwards. Unusually, the rector of St Catherine's is also the Bishop of Norwich. This is due to the expropriation of the revenues of the church by the Abbot of St Benet's in 1220 - the successor to whom was later made Bishop of Norwich by Henry VIII. The rebuilding of the nave, roof and aisles in the 15th century would have been greatly assisted by the integration of the church and St Benet's in the lucrative East Anglian wool trade. The 15th century octagonal font is distinguished for its highly unusual depiction of a female wodewose. The top is rounded with the symbols of the four evangelists. Tympanum An extremely rare painted tympanum survives, separating the nave from the chancel. The west side depicts the crucifixion, while on the east side the coat of arms of Elizabeth I are shown. These arms were originally painted on a canvas nailed over the crucifixion, but were removed at an unknown stage and replaced on the reverse side in 1890. Rood Screen Besides the tympanum, the 1493 Rood Screen is the other notable artistic feature of St Catherine. Described by Pevsner as of "exceptionally good quality", it depicts, from left to right: St Mary Magdalene St Stephen St Edmund King Henry VI St Augustine St Ambrose St Gregory St Jerome King Edward the Confessor St Walstan St Lawrence St Apollonia See also Grade I listed buildings in North Norfolk References
Church of St Michael and All Angels (Downholme)

Die Church of St Michael and All Angels ist ein anglikanisches Kirchengebäude in Downholme, einem kleinen Weiler westlich von Richmond in North Yorkshire in Großbritannien. Das Bauwerk ist seit 1969 als Kulturdenkmal der Kategorie Grade II* eingestuft und steht frei in der hügeligen Landschaft der Yorkshire Dales innerhalb eines Friedhofs außerhalb des kleinen Ortskerns von Downholme. Geschichte Die dem Patrozinium des Erzengels Michael und aller Engel unterstellte Kirche geht im Kern auf ein Bauwerk aus dem 12. Jahrhundert zurück. Ursprünglich befand sie sich inmitten der Ortschaft. Nach einem Ausbruch der Pest wurde der Ort jedoch verlegt und der alte Standort bis auf die Kirche aufgegeben. Das dreijochige Langhaus des Gotteshauses entstand um das Jahr 1180, ihm wurde im 13. Jahrhundert ein nördliches Seitenschiff angefügt, das sich mit drei spitzbogigen Arkaden zum Kirchraum öffnet. Der zweijochige Chorraum entstand im frühen 14. Jahrhundert, sein erstes Joch ist mit einer weiteren Spitzbogenarkade mit dem letzten Seitenschiffjoch verbunden, wo sich heute die Orgel befindet. In der gerade geschlossenen Ostwand befindet sich ein Maßwerkfenster aus dem 14. Jahrhundert. Der Eingang zur Kirche erfolgt über die Südwand, wo sich ein normannisches Portal wohl aus der Erbauungszeit der Kirche findet, dem um 1811 eine Vorhalle angefügt wurde. Der Taufstein stammt aus dem 12. Jahrhundert. Einzelnachweise Weblinks

Burn Hall, County Durham

Burn Hall is a country house in County Durham. It is a Grade II* listed building. History Around 1812, Bryan John Salvin of Croxdale purchased a manor house, dating back to the 13th century, called New Burnhall. Ignatius Bonomi redesigned it from 1821 to 1834 in the gothic and neoclassical style under the name Burn Hall. It remained in the Salvin family until Marmaduke Henry Salvin died in 1924 and it was acquired by Saint Joseph's Missionary Society of Mill Hill which established a boys' school there. The seminary closed to full time students in 1995 when the costs of training priests became prohibitive. The restoration of the main house and the redevelopment of the area to the rear by Jane Darbyshire Associates won the City Trust's architectural commendation of the year in 1998.
