St Bartholomew's Church, Bathealton

St Bartholomew's Church is a Church of England parish church in Bathealton, Somerset, England. It was built in 1854 to the designs of C. E. Giles and is a Grade II listed building. Today the church is part of the Wellington and District Team Ministry. History The first church to be built on the site of St Bartholomew's is believed to date to the early 14th century. The church was rebuilt in the 16th century using money bequeathed by the 1542 will of Elizabeth Siddenham. The chancel was rebuilt in 1774 and other major repairs were later made to the building, but its condition had deteriorated by the 1850s, prompting a faculty to be obtained in 1853 for its demolition and replacement. Plans for the new church were drawn up by Charles Edmund Giles of Taunton, and it was built at the sole expense of Henry Gorges Moysey of Bathealton Court, for a cost of £1,881. It was consecrated by the Bishop of Bath and Wells, the Right Rev. Robert Eden, on 18 September 1854. In 1901, Mrs. Burton Borough of Milverton gifted a clock for the church's tower. The church underwent repair in circa 1964, including treatment of the roof timbers and other woodwork in the church for beetle infestation and wet rot, re-pointing of joints in the external masonry, replacement of broken slates on the roof and other general repairs. Architecture St Bartholomew's is built of coursed and squared red sandstone, with dressings in white limestone and a tiled roof. The church is made up of a three-bay nave, chancel, north aisle, north-east vestry, south porch and a three-stage west tower. The tower contains four bells and has crenellations and a staircase turret. The interior contains many fittings dating from the mid-19th century and a four-centred arch arcade with octagonal moulded piers. The church incorporates a lintel from its Elizabethan predecessor, which is now located in the bell ringing chamber. References
County Hall, Beverley

County Hall is a municipal building in Cross Street, Beverley, East Riding of Yorkshire, England. County Hall, which is the headquarters of East Riding of Yorkshire Council, is a Grade II listed building. History Following the implementation of the Local Government Act 1888, which established county councils in every county, it became necessary to find a meeting place for the East Riding County Council. Initially meetings of the county council were held in the Sessions House and in the Guildhall. After deciding the old Sessions House and Guildhall were inadequate for their needs, county leaders chose to procure a new county headquarters: the site selected in Cross Street had been occupied by the former Mechanics Institute. A new purpose-built building, designed by R. G. Smith and Frederick Stead Brodrick in the Flemish Renaissance style, was completed in 1891. The design involved a main frontage with eleven bays facing onto Cross Street; the left-hand section of five bays, which was symmetrical, featured an elaborately carved stone doorway on the ground floor flanked by composite order columns, with three tall mullion windows on the first floor; the right-hand section of six bays, which was asymmetrical, featured a porch flanked by Doric order columns and topped with a pediment containing the county coat of arms, with tall mullion windows on the first and second floors. Internally, the principal room was the council chamber which contained fine furniture carved by the wood carver and cabinet maker, James Elwell. In the 1930s the novelist, Winifred Holtby, attended council meetings in the council chamber to obtain inspiration for her book South Riding which won the James Tait Black Memorial Prize in 1936. Following the abolition of East Riding County Council in 1974, the building became the offices of Humberside County Council. A large modern office block, intended to create additional facilities for the county council, was built on Champney Road and opened in 1983. Local government was reorganised again, with the abolition of Humberside County Council in 1996, and county hall became the offices of the new unitary authority, East Riding of Yorkshire Council at that time. The council chamber was refurbished in late 2019. See also Listed buildings in Beverley (south area) References
Union Mill, Beverley

Union Mill is a historic building in Beverley, a town in the East Riding of Yorkshire, in England. The mill was constructed between 1800 and 1804 by the Beverley Union Mill Society. This was a co-operative organisation, and the windmill was nicknamed the "Anti-Mill". The co-operative dissolved in the 1860s, due to disagreements in the management committee. It was instead leased by James Thirsk, who used it to produce his Beverlac brand flour. The mill closed in the early 1890s, and in 1906 was converted to become a new clubhouse for the Beverley and East Riding Golf Club. The former windmill is built of tarred brick. It is circular and tapering, with three storeys, and has an embattled top. It has been grade II listed since 1987. See also Listed buildings in Beverley (west and southwest areas) References
The Beverley Arms

The Beverley Arms is a historic hotel in Beverley, a town in the East Riding of Yorkshire, in England. An inn named "The Bell" was first recorded in 1686, and it is likely that this later became the "Blue Bell". Between 1794 and 1796, it was largely rebuilt to a design by William Middleton, and became the "Beverley Arms". This was a large coaching inn with stables and a coach house, and became the most important inn in the East Riding. The kitchen appears in several paintings by Frederick William Elwell. The interior has been much modernised, but retains a broadly Georgian character. The building was grade II listed in 1950, and was extended by three bays between 1966 and 1967. Between 2016 and 2018, the hotel was refurbished at a cost of £6 million, at which time it was owned by the Thwaites group. The hotel is built of red brick with stone dressings, a sill band, a cornice under a coped parapet, and a pantile roof. It has storeys and is ten bays wide. The porch is in stone, and has two columns with fluted capitals, and an arched doorway with an ornamental radial fanlight and a fluted transom, and above it is an iron balcony. On the ground floor to the left are a round-arched doorway with a fanlight, a carriage entrance with a keystone, and a round-arched passage entry. The window above the porch has a round-arched head and an architrave, and the other windows are sashes. See also Listed buildings in Beverley (north area) References External links Official website
Holy Trinity Church, Blacktoft

Holy Trinity Church is the parish church of Blacktoft, a village in the East Riding of Yorkshire, in England. A chapel in Blacktoft was recorded in 1202. In 1742, there was a dispute over the roofing of the chancel, which led to a model of the church being presented in court. It was long in the parish of All Saints' Church, Brantingham, but in 1784 it was given its own parish. The church was rebuilt in 1841, to a design by John Harper. The work cost £1640, part of which was funded by the sale of the old materials. The building was grade II listed in 1966. The church is built of stone with a Welsh slate roof. It consists of a nave, a north vestry, a chancel with a polygonal apse, and a west tower. The tower has three stages, diagonal buttresses, a west doorway with a four-centred arch, a coved string course, above which is a three-light window, paired two-light bell openings, and an embattled parapet. Inside, the chancel arch survives from the old church, there is a west gallery and box pews. Two of the windows have stained glass by Harry Harvey. See also Listed buildings in Blacktoft References
St Mary's Church, Broomfleet

St Mary's Church is the parish church of Broomfleet, a village in the East Riding of Yorkshire, in England. Broomfleet long lay in the parish of All Saints' Church, South Cave.

Pearson also designed the vicarage, now known as Broomfleet Grange. The church was grade II listed in 1987. The church is built of limestone with a Welsh slate roof. It consists of a nave, a chancel, and a north tower containing a porch with a pointed doorway. The bell openings have two lights, above these are blind quatrefoils, and a pyramidal roof. Most of the windows are lancets. The east window has mid-19th century stained glass. See also Listed buildings in Broomfleet References External links Official website
Whitgift, East Riding of Yorkshire

Whitgift is a small linear village and former civil parish, now in the parish of Twin Rivers, in the East Riding of Yorkshire, England approximately 4 miles (6.4 km) east of Goole. It is located alongside the River Ouse and north of the A161 road between Goole and Scunthorpe. Ousefleet and Reedness are to the east and west respectively. Historically Whitgift was part of the West Riding of Yorkshire. In 1961 the parish had a population of 191. Features There was for many years a Whitgift ferry, which may originally have predated the village. Between November 1606 and February 1607, a persistent cold weather spell froze the River Ouse, and the ferry could not operate. However, records indicate that ".. men, women and children, horses and wagons loaded went on ye water at Ouse here at Whitgift ferrie and son continued until ye xiiii day of Februarie...". Church The Church of Mary Magdalene (on the Whitgift side of the border between Whitgift and Reedness) dates from 1304 (replacing an earlier building, 11th–12th century or earlier). It has a famous clock with an unusual feature: instead of 12 (XII in Roman numerals) it has a 13 (XIII). Reasons vary, but local rumour relates that it may be due to the church being adjacent to a pub (now closed) at which the painter imbibed before completing the job. The church was designated a Grade I listed building in 1967 and is now recorded in the National Heritage List for England, maintained by Historic England. Hall Whitgift is also notable for Whitgift Hall, a grade II* listed Georgian manor house built in 1704 by a family called Stephenson. Since it was built, it has undergone significant change. For example, bay windows were added and the current owners have a caravan site and fishing pond. Lighthouse Whitgift lighthouse was erected just north of the village in the late 19th century, for the Aire and Calder Navigation: a five-storey cream-painted tower with a stone base, it stands 46 ft (14 m) high. It remains operational, a waymark for ships travelling to and from Goole docks, and is Grade II listed. Other Other features include a Methodist chapel, but Whitgift mainly consists of a sparse strip of houses spread out over its length bounded by the River Ouse to the north and fields to the south looking towards Eastoft. History The place-name 'Whitgift' is first attested in a Yorkshire charter of circa 1080, where it appears as Witegift, and in a charter of 1232 where it appears as Whitegift. The name is thought to mean 'Hviti's or Hwita's gift'. Another theory is that the second element derives from the Old Norse gipt, meaning 'dowry'. Whitgift was previously part of the Goole Rural District in the West Riding of Yorkshire from 1894 to 1974, then in Boothferry district of Humberside until 1996. On 1 April 1983 the civil parish was abolished to form Twin Rivers. References External links The Ancient Parish of Whitgift Whitgift's entry on Goole On The Web The clock which counts to 13

St David's Church, Airmyn

St David's Church is the parish church of Airmyn, a village in the East Riding of Yorkshire, in England. In the Mediaeval period, Airmyn was in the parish of Snaith Priory. The villagers of Airmyn built a church in 1311, but the priory objected to this, and the Archbishop of York barred them from holding services in the new church. In 1318, it was finally dedicated, although it remained a chapel of ease to Snaith. The church was rebuilt in 1676, and then in 1858 a bellcote and porch were added to a design by Lockwood and Mawson, and the roof was replaced. In 1884, the chancel was rebuilt, and an organ chamber was added. The building was grade II listed in 1967. The church is built in red brick with stone dressings and a Westmorland slate roof. It consists of a nave with a west porch, a north vestry, and a chancel with a south organ chamber. On the west front, the porch is flanked by lancet windows, and above is a tablet with the date and a coat of arms. The gable is surmounted by a bellcote with two pointed bell openings, and a pierced quatrefoil under a coped gable with a pinnacle. Inside, there are numerous monuments from the 18th and 19th centuries, and stained glass designed by the Powell Brothers. See also Listed buildings in Airmyn References

Church of St Mary, Letchworth

The Church of St Mary the Virgin is the Church of England parish church of Old Letchworth in Hertfordshire. A church appears to have been on the site since before the Norman Conquest. The current church was built in the late 12th century and is Grade II listed. It comes under the Diocese of St Albans. The original dedication of the church is unknown; it was rededicated to St Mary during the First World War. The church is the oldest building in the area and is only 60 feet long inside. Mentioned in the Domesday Book of 1086, parts of the building date to the 11th century and is built on the remains of an older Saxon structure. However, most of what is seen today dates to the late 12th century and was reroofed in the 15th century when the south porch was also added. The nave has three bays and a chancel. The church has a pyramidical timber-framed bell-cot with a tiled roof at the west end inside which is a bell dating to the 14th century. The exterior is of flint and ironstone random rubble, partly rendered, with freestone dressings and ashlar, brick and tile buttresses. The windows in the nave have a Y tracery. The gabled porch has a square headed doorway with shields in spandrels. Inside there is a carved effigy of the Crusader Sir Richard de Montfichet on a window sill. His heart is reputedly buried under the church. After 1903 the small rural parish of Letchworth changed dramatically with the development of Letchworth Garden City. In 1908 a "mission church" dedicated to St Michael was opened on Norton Way South, closer to the new town centre. This in turn was replaced by another church (also dedicated to St Michael) on Broadway, which opened in 1967. The new St Michael's church officially became the parish church of the ecclesiastical parish of Letchworth (covering only the south-western part of the larger Garden City) in November 1967, with the old parish church of St Mary's thereafter being a chapel of ease to St Michael's. Structural problems with the 1960s St Michael's building led to its closure in December 2019, but St Mary's continues in use. Notable burials W. F. Harvey (1885-1937), horror writer, is buried in the churchyard. References External links Website of the Parish Church of St Mary the Virgin, Letchworth

Bognor Regis Town Hall

Bognor Regis Town Hall is a municipal building in Clarence Road, Bognor Regis, West Sussex, England. The town hall, which is the meeting place of Bognor Regis Town Council, is a Grade II listed building. History Bognor was governed by improvement commissioners from 1822. The commissioners established an office in the High Street. In the late 1830s the town clerk relocated to the assembly rooms in Sudley Road and, in 1882, the Jubilee School in the High Street was converted for municipal use. Improvement commissioners' districts were reconstituted as urban districts under the Local Government Act 1894, and so Bognor's commissioners were replaced by Bognor Urban District Council. In 1929 the council decided to build a dedicated town hall: the site selected had formed part of the grounds of a convalescent home. The site selection caused some controversy as Clarence Road was seen as a "back street" by some councillors. Foundation stones for the new building were laid by a long-serving member of the council, Councillor William Grice, and the chairman of the council, Canon Arthur Sacre, on 22 May 1929. At the same time that construction began the council also petitioned George V to be allowed to add "Regis" to the town's name; the name was formally changed to Bognor Regis on 26 July 1929. The town hall was designed by Charles Cowles-Voysey in the Neo-Georgian style, built in yellow brick with stone dressings by a local contractor, H. W. Seymour, and officially opened by Mrs Eleanor Sacre on 11 October 1930. The design involved a main frontage of nine bays facing onto the corner of Clarence Road and Belmont Street with the end bays canted forward; the central section of five bays featured a three-bay portico with paired square piers supporting an entablature and a wide stone balcony bearing a shield; there were a French windows on the first floor and a lantern above at roof level. A war memorial, which had been designed by William Tillott Barlow and unveiled by Major-General Sir John Frederick Daniell, late of the Royal Marine Light Infantry, in Waterloo Square on 11 November 1921, was relocated to the area in front of the town hall in time for its opening, and a Royal Warrant issued by King George V allowing the town to use the suffix "Regis" in honour of his residence in the town during his convalescence in late 1928 was installed in the council chamber. The building was used as a surface air raid shelter during the Second World War. It remained the headquarters of Bognor Regis Urban District Council for much of the 20th century but ceased to be the local seat of government after the enlarged Arun District Council was formed in 1974. The district council continued to keep an area office in the town hall and the town council, which was formed in 1984, established the town hall as its main meeting place. A clock was added to the turret to mark the new millennium in the year 2000 and the building became recognised as an "asset of community value" in May 2018. References
