All Saints' Church, Honington

All Saints' Church is an Anglican church in the village of Honington, in Warwickshire, England, and in the Diocese of Coventry. The building dates from the 1680s, and has a 13th-century tower. It is Grade I listed. Description The west tower dates from the late 13th century; the rest of the church was rebuilt in the 1680s by Sir Henry Parker, who built Honington Hall, adjacent to the church, at the same time. The Victoria County History for the parish (1949) remarks that the building "is reminiscent of the plainer of the Wren churches in the City of London." Externally, the walls of the church are of light yellow ashlar; there are four bays on the north and south sides, each with tall round-headed windows. There is a plain parapet, surmounted by carved urns between each bay. The tower has a parapet and corner pinnacles, probably of the late 17th century. Inside, there is a nave with north and south aisles, and an apsidal chancel. The north and south arcades have four bays, corresponding to the exterior, with Tuscan columns, that have capitals with egg-and-dart ornaments, and the arches have panelled soffits. The nave has a coved ceiling that is plastered and divided into panels; the aisles have flat undecorated ceilings. The apse is semi-circular, with a diameter of about 12.5 feet (3.8 m), and has a single round-headed window. Monuments At the centre of the west end of the nave is a marble monument to Sir Henry Parker {died 1713) and his son Hugh (died 1712). It has pilasters on either side, and above are two carved urns flanking two shields of arms. On the south wall is a marble monument to Joseph Townsend, who bought the Honington estate in 1737, and a wall tablet to his wife Judith. On the north wall there are monuments to 19th-century members of the Townsend family. Bells It is thought that there was originally a ring of five bells, by Matthew Bagley of Chacombe. There are now six bells, the five by Bagley, dated 1687 except one which was recast by Abraham Rudhall II of Gloucester and dated 1726; and one by John Rudhall of Gloucester, dated 1810. References
Church of St Peter and St Paul, Long Compton

The Church of St Peter and St Paul is an Anglican church in the village of Long Compton, in Warwickshire, England. It is in the Diocese of Coventry, and is one of seven churches in the South Warwickshire Benefice. The building, dating from the early 13th century, is Grade I listed. Description There was an earlier church, perhaps made of wood, on the same site. The oldest parts of the present church are of the early 13th century. There is a nave with a north aisle, a western tower, a chancel and a south porch. The tower has three stages: the lower two are late 13th-century, with a 15th-century upper stage, probably contemporary with the clerestory of the nave. It has an embattled parapet with crocketted pinnacles in the corners. Below the parapet there are gargoyles to the north and south, with animal heads, serving as water outlets. The nave roof is low-pitched and has an embattled parapet. There is a Sanctus bell, dating from the 16th century, above the east gable of the nave, in a restored bellcote. Internally the roof of the nave is constructed with purlins and tie-beams, and is supported on the nave walls by carved corbels, which include a mitred bishop's head, a lady with a headdress, a priest, and angels. The chancel was rebuilt in the late 13th or early 14th century, and it has a roof with stone slates. A chantry chapel was added in the 15th century to the south wall of the chancel, between the south windows. It is now a vestry. It has two small bays and an embattled parapet. The north aisle was built in the early 14th century, and the porch is of the late 14th century. By the east wall of the porch is a badly worn stone monument, showing a recumbent figure of a woman, thought to be of the 14th century, probably once inside the church. There was restoration in 1862–63 by Henry Woodyer, particularly of the chancel, and a rood screen was installed. After a flood in the village in 1998, which caused irreparable damage to the church rooms in Vicarage Lane, the west end of the church was altered to provide a meeting room, toilet, kitchen and lobby. The new facilities were opened in 2004 by the Bishop of Coventry, Colin Bennetts. Bells There are six bells; the oldest, both trebles, are by James and Richard Keene of Woodstock, dated 1652. Originally the complete ring of five or six were by James and Richard Keene. The fourth bell is by W & J Taylor of Oxford, dated 1823. The sixth is by Henry Bagley III of Chacombe, dated 1731. The third and fifth bells, originally by Henry Bagley III, were recast by Thomas Bond and Sons of Burford in 1924. Lychgate The lychgate, a Grade II listed building, has a room above the gate and a thatched roof. It was originally the end of a row of cottages; most of which were demolished in the early 20th century. It was rebuilt and given to the church in 1964 by a past resident, George Latham, as a memorial to his wife Marion. References
Church of St Peter ad Vincula, Hampton Lucy

St Peter ad Vincula is the Grade I listed Church of England parish church of Hampton Lucy, Warwickshire and is part of the Barford Group of Churches. It was built in the 1820s on the site of a demolished medieval church. History The medieval church of St Peter originally stood "not exactly on the same site" as the present church. It was demolished in 1822 when the Lucy family of Charlecote Park employed Thomas Rickman and Henry Hutchinson to design and build a new parish church in the Gothic Revival style. The result is described as "one of the best examples of Victorian Gothic style in Warwickshire" and the "magnum opus" of Rickman and Hutchinson. The first phase of construction consisted of the ashlared limestone nave and tower, designed by Hutchinson and Rickman respectively. The nave consists of six bays with a north and south aisle. The external walls sit on a moulded plinth and the window hoods, parapet and gables are richly carved. The tower has three stages, terminating in octagonal pinnacles and a pierced, crenellated parapet. In 1858 Sir George Gilbert Scott was employed to add a chancel and north porch, both of which are richly decorated in the Gothic Revival style. A statue of St Peter in chains sits over the north porch along with the Lucy arms. The east window, depicting the life of St Peter, was restored after it was damaged when an American aircraft crashed nearby during the Second World War. The building was Grade I listed on 5 April 1967 as a "very good example of C19 church architecture". The only remaining fabric of the medieval church are two groups of tiles in the floor of the south aisle, showing heraldic symbols and designs of foliage. Bells Today there is only one bell in the tower, cast by Thomas Mears in 1826. It was intended to be the tenor of a ring of eight, but the other bells and framework were never added. There was a ring of five in the tower of the original medieval church, cast by Richard Keene of Woodstock in 1672–1673, which is now classed as a "lost ring". It was probably last rung in 1822 before the old church was demolished; the tenor weighed about 8cwt.

Church of St Mary Magdalene, Tanworth-in-Arden

The Church of St Mary Magdalene is an Anglican church in the village of Tanworth-in-Arden, in Warwickshire, England, and in the Diocese of Birmingham. The building dates from the 13th and 14th centuries, with modifications in the 18th and 19th centuries. It is Grade I listed. History and description There is a chancel, a nave with a wide north aisle, porches and a west tower with a spire. The church was built in the period from the 13th century to about 1330–40. It is thought there was originally a chapel built in the early 13th century, where the north aisle now stands; the windows were replaced in the late 13th century with larger windows. The building was soon afterwards enlarged, with the construction of the nave, tower and chancel. The wide east window of the north aisle, 18 inches (46 cm) wider than that of the chancel, was formerly the east window of the chapel; windows in the south wall of the chapel were moved to the west half of the nave. The spire was rebuilt 6 feet (1.8 m) higher in 1720. In 1790, the arcade between the nave and the north aisle was removed, a gallery was erected across the west wall, and the north and south porches were removed and new doorways made, opening into entrance areas under the gallery. In 1880, the arcade was rebuilt, the gallery was removed, and the north porch was rebuilt. The south porch is more recent. Monuments There are several brass memorials on the interior walls of the church. There is a large marble monument to Thomas Archer (died 1685), his wife Anne (died 1685), and Elizabeth (died 1703, aged 29), the wife of Andrew Archer, who erected the monument. There is a neo-classical wall monument to Andrew Archer, 2nd Baron Archer (died 1778), designed by John Hickey. Churchyard The graves of the singer-songwriter Nick Drake, and the racing driver Mike Hailwood, are in the churchyard. The following monuments in the churchyard are Grade II-listed: Near the south porch is a monument, in neo-classical style, to Richard Lea (died 1818). It was restored in 1993. There is a chest tomb to Sarah Humphries (died 1793) about 11 metres south of the porch. About 2 metres south of the chancel is a chest tomb in neo-classical style, a memorial to John Horton of Elliotts Hall (died 1817). A chest tomb 9 metres south of the chancel is probably late 18th-century; its inscription is eroded. A chest tomb to Elizabeth, wife of Richard Field of Blackford (died 1819) is about 12 metres south of the chancel. See also Grade I listed buildings in Warwickshire References

Diamond Cottage

Diamond Cottage is a rustic cottage designed by John Nash (1752–1835) and George Stanley Repton (died 1858) in Blaise Hamlet, Bristol, England. The picturesque cottage is one of a group of ten built around 1810 as retirement homes for the servants of a wealthy banker. Location The land on which the cottage stands is part of an estate purchased by John Scandrett Harford, a banker, for £13,000 in 1789. Harford had a substantial house built and asked the landscape architect Humphry Repton to lay out the grounds. Repton became a partner of John Nash, whom Harford commissioned to design a group of cottages as homes for his retired servants. Nash created sketches of the cottages, which George Repton built. The cottages surround an open green. Each cottage faces the green and has a separate back garden. They were described by Pevsner as "...the nec plus ultra of picturesque layout and design". When built, the cottages would have been set in open country. Since then the group of cottages has been surrounded by a high wall, which hides the modern housing around them. The hamlet became a National Trust property in 1943. Diamond Cottage was made a listed building, grade I: buildings of exceptional interest, on 8 January 1959. It is listed as 901-1/20/1341, no. 2 Blaise Hamlet, Diamond Cottage on Hallen Road. The exterior has been carefully restored, while the interior has been modernised and is still occupied. The cottage is rented by the National Trust. Description The picturesque style Diamond Cottage was built in 1812. It is faced with random rubble. The hipped roof is tiled in stone, and has two diagonally-set brick chimney stacks to the rear. On two sides there is a pent roof over a deep coved eave, with a leaded lattice casement in each wall. The cottage is entered from the left through a plank door in a porch with a pitched roof. Before renovation it had a kitchen, sitting room, scullery and outside lavatory. The attic with a half dormer is reached by a dogleg stairway. The cottage interior was modernised around 1975. Notes Sources
St Mary's Bridge Chapel

St Mary's Bridge Chapel is a Church of England chapel in Derby, England. It is a bridge chapel, one of only a small number of medieval age that survive in England. It is a Grade I listed building. The Chapel of St Mary on the Bridge, commonly known as the Bridge Chapel, was built on the first arch of a medieval bridge over the River Derwent; the springing of the arch can be seen below the east wall. It now stands beside the 18th-century St Mary's Bridge, which replaced the medieval bridge. The precise date when the first bridge chapel came into existence is uncertain, but it is likely to have been the late 13th or early 14th century. The south elevation has a timber-framed gable over a 15th-century stone-mullioned window with modern leaded lights. The original building was of stone, but some restoration is in brick with tile slips. The interior is small and aisleless. The north wall has a lychnoscope. It is one of only six bridge chapels left in England. The building has had other uses including as a prison and a carpenter's workshop. It was restored in 1930 in memory of Alfred Seale Haslam, a former Mayor of Derby, using funds from his family. An incised slate tablet on the north side records the names of three Catholic priests, Nicholas Garlick, Robert Ludlum and Richard Simpson, who on 24 July 1588 were martyred near here. Although it remains in Anglican ownership, the building is also used for worship by Lutheran (Latvian and German-speaking) and Russian Orthodox congregations. The adjacent St Mary's Bridge (1788–93, designed by Thomas Harrison) is a Grade II* listed structure and scheduled monument, and Bridge Chapel House (or St Mary's Bridge House, No. 86, Bridge Gate) is listed at Grade II.

Уоллатон-холл

Уоллатон-холл (англ. Wollaton Hall) — один из полдюжины ренессансных (елизаветинских) дворцов, сохранившихся в Англии. Строился под Ноттингемом в 1580-е годы архитектором Робертом Смитсоном (ранее спроектировавшим Лонглит) для промышленника Фрэнсиса Уиллоби (родственника капитана Хью Уиллоби). В архитектуре проскальзывают итальянизмы, указывающие на участие в строительстве зодчих с юга Европы. Первоначальные интерьеры сгорели в конце XVIII века, но сохранился старинный орган XVII века. В середине XIX века Джозеф Пакстон (автор Хрустального дворца) воспроизвёл облик Уоллатон-холла при строительстве для барона Ротшильда резиденции Ментмор-Тауэрс в Бакингемшире. В 1925 году барон Уиллоби (прямой потомок заказчика дворца) уступил Уоллатон-холл городским властям Ноттингема. В настоящее время на его территории помещается музей естественной истории, где можно увидеть множество растений, животных, различные породы камней, а в парке, который прилегает к Уоллатон-холлу, можно видеть гуляющих оленей, белок и лебедей. В культуре Уоллатон-холл показан в качестве вымышленной резиденции миллиардера Брюса Уэйна в заключительной части современной трилогии о Бэтмене «Тёмный рыцарь: Возрождение легенды». Ссылки (англ.)
