Historical notes Rose Castle has a fascinating social and architectural history wall, parapet and corner turret give some idea of the mantle spanning almost 800 years. wall’s original appearance. Rose Castle was first recorded as a Bishop’s residence in 1233. outer Court of the Castle Royal permission was granted to fortify the residence in 1355 The outer court of the castle lies between the north range and and Bishop Welton set about building a castle consisting of the gateway. The north range is the most complete side of curtain walls, built around a central courtyard with a tower at the original castle, although its constituent parts are of varying each corner. This structure was surrounded by a turreted mantle dates. The section of rougher stonework to the left of the front wall, with a defensive gateway at its north-west corner.

The existing gateway, bell’s tower strickland’s tower Bell’s Tower was added by Bishop Richard Bell in 1488 when he In the north east corner of the castle’s original four sided curtain Anthony Salvin (1799-1881) was a renowned English architect who rebuilt the first-floor chapel. The tower is personalised to the bishop wall stands Strickland’s Tower. It is named after Bishop William gained a reputation as an expert on medieval buildings. A great deal with his monogram, or rebus, ‘RB’ and a bell below the parapet. Strickland, who was bishop of Carlisle from 1400 to 1419, although of his work was to restore, refit and create castles, notably Windsor the tower is certainly earlier than that. The tower’s basement was Castle, Peckforton Castle and Alnwick Castle. reputed to have been used as a prison. There are two further floors, each consisting of a single chamber and access to the turret. The tower was damaged in the Civil War and then left in a ruined state until the 1760s, when Bishop Charles Lyttelton partially repaired it. In 1852 Bishop Hugh Percy commissioned the architect, Anthony Salvin, to restore it. the north range The chapel is situated on the first floor. Its style is clearly Regency Gothic, designed by Thomas Rickman for Bishop Hugh Percy in the restoration of 1829-1831. The style replaced the late 17th century classical style adopted for the restoration by William Thackeray between 1672 and 1675, and some of the masonry is adorned with the Rose motif, seen throughout the castle in varying guises. Thomas Rickman (1776-1841) was a major figure in the gothic revival. He is also known for his antiquarian interest in church architecture. He was one of the most successful architects of his time and built churches in Bristol, Birmingham, Preston, Glasgow and Coventry as well as several country houses. the West range The West Range is medieval in origin and was also refaced by Thomas Rickman. It contains the state and private dining rooms on the ground floor, the state and private drawing rooms on the first floor and bedrooms on the second floor. Historically, the castle extended beyond the southern end of the West Range. The building was demolished and a new façade put in its place. The door in the façade has the initials ‘TB’ for Bishop Thomas Bloomer and the date 1955, marking the year in which the castle was reoccupied following the war years. rose Castle interior Entrance The impressive front door was designed by Rickman. The lock and key was given by Lady Anne Clifford, Countess of Pembroke, in 1683. It is dated with the initials ‘AP’. Inside, the hall is dominated by Rickman’s grand staircase and landing which incorporates Percy heraldry and the Rose motif. state Dining room The State Dining Room and Private Dining Room are paired with the State and Private Drawing Rooms on the floor above. They form the main spaces for large scale entertaining. In their present form they bear the stamp of Thomas Rickman’s Regency Gothic architectural style of about 1830, incorporating two impressive fireplaces and a painted Rose-theme ceiling. state Drawing room The State Drawing Room has Chinese wallpaper which has become one of the most frequently celebrated features of the castle. It is painted on very fine paper which has been removed and cleaned periodically. The wallpaper pattern and its chinoiserie style suggests an earlier date than Rickman’s 1829-1831 restoration when it is thought to have been installed. The main features of the room are very much in the Rickman style and, as with the State Dining Room, incorporates large fireplaces and painted features on the ceiling. Chapel The chapel is entered from the first floor landing via a pair of double doors. They have been on the site since at least 1488, when work on it and Bell’s Tower beyond is recorded. It was destroyed by fire in the Civil War and then rebuilt in 1664 and finally, like so much of the castle, remodelled by Rickman for Bishop Hugh Percy in 1829-1831. Rickman introduced a Gothic east window and introduced Gothic tracery to the windows on the south side. The stained glass in the windows is later than Rickman’s remodelling and is thought to have been installed in 1870-1873 by Bishop Harvey Goodwin and others. Rickman altered the doors and the ceiling, which he decorated with the diocesan and Percy arms. The linen-fold panelling of the stalls is reputed to have come from Lambeth Palace. approximate Gross internal Floor area 1509.2 sq.m/16244.7 sq.ft. this plan is for guidance only and must not be relied upon as a statement of fact. attention is drawn to the important notice on the last page of the text of the Particulars second Floor First Floor strickland tower Ground Floor rose Castle – notable Historical Events too overlooks the main lawn.

  • The Parochial Ministry of the Leaders of the Eighteenth Century Evangelical Revival1
    123/2 master:119/3 19/5/09 12:40 Page 143 143 The Parochial Ministry of the Leaders of the Eighteenth Century Evangelical Revival 1 David Wheaton Mention the evangelicals of the eighteenth centUry and many will conjUre Up pictUres of George Whitefield and John Wesley proclaiming the gospel to hUndreds or thoUsands at Moorfields, Kingsdown and other sUch venUes. They are portrayed as never so happy as when they are preaching, and so it is not sUrprising that a centUry later in 1853 W. J. Conybeare caricatUred the evangelical clergyman as being ‘oUt of his element in a parish … what he likes is, not a parish, bUt a congregation. The possession of a chapel in a large town, which he may fill with his disciples, is his idea of clerical UsefUlness’. 2 This statement may reflect the fact that at that time the rise of Anglo- Catholicism and introdUction of the trappings of the Unreformed ChUrch of Rome had caUsed many evangelical lay people to petition for a chUrch where the style of worship woUld continUe to reflect the simplicity of the Book of Common Prayer. In many cases bishops were relUctant to allow new parishes to be carved oUt of the existing ones, and so if we take the case of Jesmond Parish ChUrch in Newcastle it was initially proposed that the new chUrch shoUld be foUnded as a proprietary chapel. Similarly, at the other end of the coUntry, when an evangelical philanthropist desired to endow a chUrch, vicarage and school in the parish of Ware becaUse the incUmbent had adopted Anglo-Catholic practices, the diocesan aUthorities initially sUggested that a proprietary chapel woUld be preferable.

  • Runaway Wives: Husband Desertion in Medieval England
    RUNAWAY WIVES: HUSBAND DESERTION IN MEDIEVAL ENGLAND By Sara Butler Loyola University New Orleans Scholars of the medieval family would generally agree that the lot of the me- dieval wife was not an easy one. Medieval husbands held the upper hand in the power relationship, both legally and socially. Although Lawrence Stone's view of niarried life in the Middle Ages as "brutal and often hostile, with little communication, [and] much wife-beating" has since been called into question, more recent historians have still painted a somewhat unflattering picture.' Ju- dith Bennett writes that "[m]edieval people thought of conjugality as a hierar- chy headed by a husband who not only controlled his wife's financial assets and public behavior, but also freely enforced his will through physical violence."^ Indeed, she argues that wife-beating was "a normal part of marriage."^ Even Bar- bara Hanawalt, who has optimistically described peasant marriage in medieval England as a partnership, still concedes that occasional violence was acceptable and expected in marriage.'' What is more, the rules of coverture, which adhered to the biblical principal of husband and wife as one flesh represented at law by the husband, left a wife economically vulnerable. Because all real and movable property legally belonged to the husband as head of the household, a wife who fell out of favor with her husband might well find herself expelled from the family home, without any resources to fall back on.^ From a modern perspective, mari- tal practices hardly provided any sense of reassurance. At a time when families, more often than individuals, took the lead in spousal selection, and inheritance and status were the chief criteria, strong bonds of affection were not guaranteed.

  • There Are Few Books on Depression That Draw Together Insights from the Fields of Pastoral Care, Biblical Teaching and Clinica
    ‘There are few books on depression that draw together insights from the fields of pastoral care, biblical teaching and clinical psychiatry with such straight- forward clarity and practical wisdom. Written with the everyday needs in mind of those who battle with this condition, Encountering Depression is a one-stop resource for both sufferers and carers and all those who seek to offer them pastoral counsel and support.’ Glynn Harrison MD FRCPsych, Emeritus Professor of Psychiatry, University of Bristol ‘Many therapists, myself included, have often found their depressed Christian clients among the most difficult to help. For such clients, it has often seemed that their belief system and the practice of their faith have proved impedi- ments rather than aids to accepting the reality of their predicament and to finding through it a new humility, a hope which goes beyond despair and a freedom from destructive guilt and stubborn autonomy. Andrew and Elizabeth Procter’s book provides a powerful antidote to the false theology and the ingrained attitudes which intensify for many Christians the suffering which depression inevitably brings. In simple and direct language they address key questions, provide a mine of information, offer helpful guidance for both scripture reading and private meditation, and list a host of reliable resources. This is a book not only for Christians who know the burden of depression in their own lives but also for their relatives, friends, pastors and co-religionists. The Procters have provided a treasure house of wisdom which, if taken seriously, could transform many a congregation into a truly empathic community where God’s love could permeate into the darkest recesses of the depression experience.’ Brian Thorne, Emeritus Professor of Counselling, University of East Anglia, and Lay Canon of Norwich Cathedral ‘I just couldn’t put it down! This is a “must have” book and, almost frustrat- ingly, I agreed with every word.

  • 318 the MONTH. 'THE Second Reading of the Burials Bill Was Carried, As We Expected, by a Decisive Majority. the Bishop of Lincol
    318 THE MONTH. 'THE second reading of the Burials Bill was carried, as we expected, by a decisive majority. The Bishop of Lincoln, in -0pposing the Bill, was supported by Viscount Cranbrook in an eloquent speech; but the Archbishops, followed by eight Bishops,1 voted for the second reading. In introducing the Bill in the Upper House, the Government showed a wise discretion. Lord Chancellor Selborne is greatly respected among loyal Church­ men, particularly, perhaps, among the majority of the clergy ; and his conciliatory speech smoothed the way for a consideration of the Bill, which as it stood was by no means a mere reprint of the Liberationist programme. The clerical relief provisions were welcomed by many Church Reformers as at the least a step in the right direction. In Committee, on the 1 5th, several amendments were proposed. ·The Earl of Mount-Edgcumbe proposed the insertion in line 13, after " place," of the words " where there is no unconsecrated burial-ground or cemetery in which the parishioners or inhabitants have rights of burial." The Lord Chancellor objected that this amendment would draw a line between parish and parish through­ out the kingdom. In one parish a Nonconformist would be able to avail himself of the provisions of the Act; in an adjoining parish a Nonconformist would not be able to do so. The Archbishop of York, in supporting the amendment, remarked that a line be­ tween parish and parish already existed. On a division there appeared-Contents, 130; Non-contents, ro6; by a majority of 24, therefore, this important amendment was carried.

  • The Churchman 12.118
    556 Sh<YI't Notices. Homiletic: Lectures on Preaching. By Professor CHRISTLIEB. Trans­ lated by the Rev. C. H. IRWIN. Pp. 390. Price 7s. 6d. T. and T. Clarke. There is nothing so complete in the English language on the subject of preaching as this volume. It should be on the list of every bishop's books for ordination candidates. It deals with such subjects as the meaning, nature, scope, and aim of preaching; personal requisites for preaching ; material and contents of the sermon ; and rhetorical form and delivery of the sermon. At a time when many of the candidates for English Orders receive no instruction at all on this, one of the most important of their duties, it would indeed be desirable that this work should be placed in the hands of every deacon.
