  • Carpenders Park and South Oxhey (Again Watch for Details)
    CPSO METHODIST CHURCH NEWSLETTER Lent/Easter 2020 Minister’s Letter – Journey into Lent Our Lent journey begins! We make our way with Jesus towards Jerusalem and the Cross. This year we are exploring that journey and the places en-route through our Lent Group “Places on the Way”. We are stopping off at a village wedding in Cana, climbing new heights at the mount of Transfiguration, finishing up at the Via Dolorosa in Jerusalem as Jesus makes his way to Golgotha. We will be exploring what the journey meant to Jesus and the journey we make this Lent. (See later in the newsletter for details) Following on from the soap cross, this Lent I am asking for you to make pom- poms – brown wool pom-poms of various sizes and shades of brown. Make as many as you can during the six weeks of Lent and then join the team putting the cross together. (More information to follow) Maundy Thursday we are still going to gather for a shared meal and worship in the small hall at Bushey and Oxhey Church but this year it will be a ‘bring & share’ supper (details to follow). Finally, Good Friday, as churches together in Bushey and Oxhey, this year we are trying something slightly different. During Passiontide you will be asked to take some purple ribbons and tie them in prominent places (purple being a symbol of the passion). We will gather outside St. Andrews at 9.30am for a short act of worship before walking (or driving) down to the small park opposite St Peter’s for another short reflection.

  • Geological Trail Around St Albans Cathedral
    Geological trail around St Albans Cathedral START: The west front of the Cathedral was constructed of Ancaster Stone, an oolitic limestone of Jurassic age from Kesteven, Lincolnshire, during the restoration by Lord Grimthorpe in the 19th century. It includes three porch ways, each of which has two polished pillars of Carboniferous limestone, containing stems of fossil crinoids or sea lilies, quarried from Dene Quarry in Wirksworth, Derbyshire. A close look will also reveal patches of dark sticky staining on the pillars. This is bitumen a tarry substance which was trapped within the formation some time after the reef was formed 300 million years ago. From the west front there is a fine view southwards across the valley ofe th River Ver, which cuts deeply onto the Chalk. Roman Verulamium was situated on the valley floor. If there is no service being held, enter the Cathedral by the west door and walk eastwards along the central aisle of the nave, which is paved with large hexagonal slabs of Carboniferous Yorkstone, a fine‐grained micaceous sandstone and smaller squares of Carboniferous limestone containing crinoids. 1st stop: The 14th Century screen in the eastern end of the nave and many of the later nave pillars are built of Totternhoe Stone, a much used local building stone originating near Dunstable, and noted for its potential for carving when it’s fresh and soft, then hardening as it’s exposed to air. The floor in front of the Nave Screen shows an interesting variety of lozenge shaped ‘marble’ tiles. The red tiles are Griotte Marble – a limestone from the Ardennes region in Belgium.

  • Paintings on the Walls and Timber Ceiling of the Central Tower of St
    Paintings on the Walls and Timber Ceiling of the Central Tower of St. Albans Cathedral BY E. CLIVE ROUSE, F.S.A. Work on the plaster of the upper walls in the great central tower, necessitating extensive scaffolding, dur- ing 1951, enabled a close and critical examination of the paintings to be made. This disclosed certain facts of considerable interest, hitherto perhaps not fully realised, and it was these facts which also formed the basis for decisions taken in dealing with the paintings and influenced the eventual methods adopted. I have been asked to say something about these particular paintings, and of the new work which was done. THE WALL SHIELDS In the topmost storey of the tower, immediately below the painted timber ceiling, there is a painted coat of arms on the wall between each pair of windows. The shields are very large—between five and six feet in height—are heater-shaped, and are made to appear hanging from the under cornice of the ceiling by cords or straps. The arms are: 1. East: gules three leopards passant guardant or 2. West: gules a castle triple towered or, quartering argent a lion rampant purple. 3. South: England, with a label of five points azure. 4. North: argent a lion rampant gules crowned or in a border sable bezanty. The arms have hitherto been described as those of: 1. East: England, for Edward I. 2. West: Castile and Leon, for his wife Eleanor of Castile. 3. South: Lancaster, for Edmund Crouchback, 1st Earl of Lancaster, his brother. 4. North: Cornwall, for Richard, Earl of Cornwall, King of the Romans, his Uncle.
