    6-Stained Glass in Lancaster

    STAINED GLASS IN LANCASTER Lancaster Civic Society Leaflet 6 St Thomas, in Lancaster Priory by R.F. Ashmead of Abbott & Co (1966} The beauty of stained glass has been recognised since the Middle Ages and it is still popular. Lancaster had three notable stained-glass firms – Seward & Co, Shrigley & Hunt and Abbott & Co – which produced fine work from 1825 to 1996, relying on their artists and craftsmen. Their work The later nineteenth century was a good time for stained glass – new churches, hospitals, town halls, ocean liners, pubs and country houses – the firms’ work can be seen in all these. Shrigley and Hunt initially favoured a Pre-Raphaelite style, lighter in design and colour than its predecessors, strongly decorative, detailed, with realistic scenes and faces telling clear allegories and Biblical stories. Stronger colours were used in the 1880s. Their two main artists, Edward Holme Jewitt and Carl Almquist, had different styles, so widening the firm’s client base. They opened a studio in London to keep Almquist in the firm and to pick up on metropolitan shifts in taste. The firm also made decorative wall tiles. Abbott & Co followed these Late Victorian and Edwardian trends but also developed more modernist styles for interwar houses and in the 1960s. Both firms got contracts in association with the noted Lancaster architectural practice of Paley and Austin. Shrigley and Hunt used their London contacts to get work with Richard Norman Shaw and Alfred Waterhouse. Local magnates such as the Storeys and Williamsons of Lancaster and the brewing families of Boddington (Manchester) and Greenall (Warrington) also patronised them.

    City of Readins; Psnrisylvania

    City of Readins; Psnrisylvania JUNE 2000 c Ji -e Executive Summary THE PROCESS The City of Reading faces an uncertain and challenging future. It has reached the point in its growth and evolution when it is necessary to look at and plan for the future. Significant changes continue to occur at local and regional levels. Changing economics, shifting population bases, industrial plant closings, older housing stock and aging public facilities are headlines that appear in the news media every day. On the other hand, there are prospects for regional economic growth, collaboration and other potential opportunities that can be pursued. The current Master Plan for the City of Reading was adopted in 1969. There were efforts in 1980 and 1986 to develop an updated plan, but support was limited and final drafts were never completed. In January 1997, the Reading Planning Commission suggested to the Mayor and City Council that the Commission and appropriate Planning staff develop a new Comprehensive P!an and related Strategic Action Plan. The recommendation was endorsed by the P,dministrz- tion, and the Planning Commission identified several critical objectives to be included in the creation of the new plan. These have been summarized in the following Mission Statement: 3. “The Comprehensive Plan for Reading serves as a formally adopted statement of poli- cies regarding the City’s future. It provides a framework for public and private decisions that impact the prioritization of resource allocation, increases neighborhood and busi- 2 ness stability, and improves the overall quality of life. The document can also serve as a guide to address changing human and physical environments, strengthen community confidence and involvement, provide investment security, preserve and enhance the positive qualities of Reading, and reinforce the City as a regional hub.” In June 1997, City Council directed the Planning Commission and appropriate staff of the Community Development Department to prepare a Comprehensive Plan and Strategic Action Plan for Reading.

It is a notable ancient monument, which has grown and altered organically from the twelfth century to the present. But it has also been over all these centuries a central spiritual institution of Aberdeen. It therefore requires study, preservation and presentation, plus development in the context of today. The Mither Kirk Project is a broadly based scheme designed to achieve that development on a wide canvas. What follows below is a summary outline of significance, based on the present state of knowledge and research. The term ‘mother church’ (matrix ecclesia in Latin, mither kirk in Scots) was applied to this church in the middle ages. It indicated a church which, though not a cathedral, had superior status, which had other churches or chapels dependent on it and which had the authority to conduct baptisms. St Nicholas has been a significant institution since early times. (2) History The foundation date of the church is unknown, but must lie before 1157 when the first reference to it occurs in a papal document.
