# Charles Towne (artist)

Charles Towne (1763–1840) was an English painter of landscapes, horses and other animals, horse-racing and hunting scenes.

## Life

Towne was born in Wigan, the son of Richard Town, a portrait-painter from Liverpool, and his wife Mary. His talent for art was apparent from a young age and he received some training from landscape painter John Rathbone in Leeds. He then worked as a coach and ornamental painter with his brother in Liverpool, and also worked for a time in Lancaster and Manchester. In 1785 he married Margaret Harrison, a widow.
In 1787 Towne exhibited a small landscape in an exhibition in Liverpool. By the 1790s he was an established animal painter with a style reminiscent of Stubbs. He lived in London from 1799 to 1804 during which time he exhibited at the Royal Academy. He also added a final 'e' to his name. He became a friend of fellow artists George Morland and De Loutherbourg.
Between 1799 and 1823 he exhibited twelve works at the Royal Academy and four at the British Institution. He returned to Liverpool in 1810, and was a founder member of the Liverpool Academy, becoming vice-president in 1812–13, and exhibiting his work there for several years on and off. He resided in Liverpool until 1837, when he apparently returned to London, Towne died at Norton Street Islington Liverpool 1840.

## Work

Towne painted landscapes and animals, and obtained great celebrity in Lancashire and Cheshire by his portraits of horses, dogs, and cattle. Many of his pictures were small, but occasionally he ventured into landscapes with cattle of larger size. He also painted in watercolour, and was a candidate for admission to the Watercolour Society in 1809. His work was reasonably well regarded by his contemporary Joseph Farrington, though he also noted that Towne was a man of "coarse, debased manners and conversation". According to artist W. S. Sparrow, "his landscapes are minutely detailed and have a Dutch mannerism; animals and figures are put in with diligent and affectionate care". However the Dictionary of National Biography commented that his work "though carefully drawn" was "wanting in spirit and originality".
He painted "Old Billy", the longest-living horse on record, who pulled barges on the canals.

# St David's Church, Llangeview

St David's Church, Llangeview, is a redundant church sited in a round churchyard adjacent to the junction of the A449 and A472 roads 1 mile (1.6 km) to the east of the town of Usk in Monmouthshire, Wales. It has been designated by Cadw as a Grade I listed building, and is under the care of the Friends of Friendless Churches. It is Grade I listed because of its "exceptional interior" including a 15th-century rood-loft and "rare pre-Victorian box pews and fittings". The church stands in a churchyard that is almost circular, and is surrounded by a bank and the traces of a ditch.

## History

The first record of a church on the site is in 1254. However the present church dates mainly from the 15th century and it was probably originally dedicated to Saint Cyfyw. The Monmouthshire author and artist, Fred Hando, records this dedication in his Journeys in Gwent, published in 1951. It was declared redundant in 1999. The charity the Friends of Friendless Churches holds a 999-year lease with effect from 19 November 1999. Since then repairs have been carried out to the exterior.

## Architecture

St David's is constructed in stone rubble and has stone tile roofs. Its plan consists of a nave and chancel, with a west porch. On the east gable is a cross finial, and on the west gable is a bellcote. The bellcote has two triangular openings; the bells were dated 1598 and 1688, but only one of these was still present by 1999. On the south side of the church are three windows in Perpendicular style; there are no windows on the north side. The east window has three lights. At the east end of the nave on each side is a buttress, and there is a Tudor arched door on the south wall of the chancel.
The church has a "remarkable unrestored interior with 18th-century fittings". Its floor slopes downwards from the west. The walls are plastered and whitewashed; the pointed chancel arch is also plastered. The frame and the front of the loft of the original 15th-century rood screen are still present. The architectural historian John Newman records this as an "important medieval survival". There is a set of pre-Victorian box pews. These include a large squire's pew, above which is a monument to William Jones who died in 1829. The pulpit is five-sided, and the communion rail is supported by turned balusters. There are stone benches along the east wall and a small, damaged piscina in the south wall. The font is square on a square base. On the floor of the nave and the chancel, and on the north wall, are memorial slabs.

# St David's Church, Nottage

St David's Church, Nottage is an Anglican church in Nottage, South Wales.

## History

The village of Nottage is older than both Porthcawl and Newton. Thought to be of Saxon origin, its original name was Llanddewi, which translates as 'the enclosure around the Church of St David'. This early church was located beside the present Rose and Crown pub. Its graveyard was probably at the site of the village green, where human remains have been found. After the building of St Johns in 1190, community life centred around Newton. The ecclesiastical parish of Newton Nottage was formed before 1300, and the old church of Nottage fell out of use, last being mentioned in a manorial roll from 1630 (though accounts are at variance as to whether it was still functional).

## Modern Church

Nottage had no church until the postwar years. Before this, services had been held in a house on Redlands Street. In 1948, a wooden church formerly used by the RAF was erected on donated land. Two Nissen huts were also purchased, and were used as a schoolroom and anteroom. They lasted until 1968, when they were demolished and replaced with a purpose-built timber church hall. Part of the original 1948 site was sold in 1970. Parking facilities were added in 1978. In the early 1990s, the 1948 structure was wholly replaced with a new church, though the bell was saved. Services moved into the church hall until the present building was consecrated by Bishop Roy Davies in 1992. The new hall was completed in 1995.

# Charles Burr Todd

Charles Burr Todd (January 9, 1849 – 1928) was an American historian.

## Biography

He was born at Redding, Connecticut, educated at the common schools, and fitted for college, but failure of eyesight prevented him from entering. After teaching for some time, he devoted himself to literary pursuits, and contributed to American magazines.
In May 1877, Todd was appointed commissioner for erecting a monument on the 1778-1779 winter quarters of Gen. Israel Putnam's division of Continentals in Redding, Connecticut, which was authorized by act of the Connecticut legislature. He was instrumental in the creation of Putnam Memorial State Park. As a Redding resident and historian he was interested in preserving the site, which is now a state park dedicated to Putnam's encampment.
In 1895 he was secretary of the committee appointed by Mayor Strong for the printing of early records of New York City.
In 1903 Todd entered a Washington, D.C. police station, claiming that he had been poisoned and that detectives from New York City were pursuing him with the intent of killing him for magazine articles he had written a decade earlier and that offended certain prominent New Yorkers. He appeared otherwise sane but was nonetheless confined to an insane asylum for eight days, whereupon he was released.

# St David's Church, Llanddew

St David's Church is an active parish church in the village of Llanddew, Powys, Wales. It stands next to the castle, some 2km to the north-east of Brecon. It is traditionally associated with Gerald of Wales, who served as Archdeacon of Brecon and lived in the castle in the late 12th century. Ruined by the mid-19th century, the church was restored by Ewan Christian. St David's is designated by Cadw as a Grade I listed building.

## History

It is probable that the earliest structure on the site was a clas church, traditionally dating back to the 6th century. The present church stands adjacent to the castle, in the centre of the village of Llanddew, some 2km north-east of Brecon. Cadw dates it to the 13th century. In the Middle Ages the castle was the residence of the Archdeacon of Brecon, a post held in the late 1100s by Gerald of Wales who is traditionally associated with the church. The church tower was rebuilt in 1629 and further renovation took place in the 18th century. By the mid-19th century the building was in ruins, and restoration was undertaken by Ewan Christian, in two phases between 1883-1884 and in 1900. A further renovation took place in 1960.
The church remains an active parish church in the Diocese of Swansea and Brecon and regular services are held.

## Architecture and description

The church is built to a cruciform plan, with a nave, chancel, transepts and a central tower. The south porch dates from the Ewan Christian reconstruction. Robert Scourfield and Richard Haslam, in their Powys volume in the Buildings of Wales series, describe it as "superficially, a convincingly 12th to 13th century church" before giving details of the multiple restorations. The building materials are local sandstones with a shale tile roof. The churchyard is roughly circular, supporting the interpretation of its origins as a clas settlement.
St David's is as a Grade I listed building. Its lychgate is listed at Grade II.
