Stained Glass Condition Report Holy Trinity Church Bradpole, Dorset Stained Glass Condition Report Holy Trinity Church Bradpole, Dorset Diocese of Salisbury Survey carried out 28th June 2019 and report compiled by Dan Humphries ACR Scope of survey and report: I was contacted by the inspecting architect and asked to liaise with the PCC with a view to inspecting all of the stained glass at Holy Trinity and providing a condition report for them with recommendations for any work required with priorities and quotes. Brief history of the church. From the church guidebook by Ivan Andrews, 4th edition Nov 2018 Holy Trinity Church was erected in 1845-6 as a completely new structure to replace a small medieval church, which was, at the same time, demolished… Building stone, additional to that taken from the old structure, was obtained from quarries at neighbouring Mangerton and Loders, and ‘dressings’ came from Ham Hill, near Yeovil… It then consisted of the main nave, chancel, north aisle in four bays… The vestry… now housing the organ, and the spire did not exist. The year 1897… (diamond jubilee year) … saw the church enlarged, improved and beautified by the addition of the north-east vestry, the erection of the erection of a decorated wrought iron and bronze chancel screen, and the painting of the murals. The distinctive arch mural, understood to be the largest of its kind in England at the time, and the chancel east wall were painted by Mr W G Rich. A double lancet window that existed in the east end of the north aisle and two single windows in the north wall of the chancel were naturally removed when the extension was added but re-used in the north and east walls of the new work. … the original stained glass window in the wall of the north aisle, being of a dark nature, were removed in the early 1950s to create more light for that side of the church. Attributions. Attributions are from www.stainedglassrecords.org, where Holy Trinity, Bradpole is listed under Southern Counties by Robert Eberhard. 2 CVMA Floorplan 3 Mail light dim.s Window I Date 1894 2@ 330 x 2750 Firm W G Rich?1 1@ 380 x 3250 Source Bridport News Narrative Crucifixion Memorial Rev Alex Broadley 15.6.1894 stainedglassrecords.org Condition notes Relatively good condition.

The lower member of the fixed frame would ideally be reversed to shed water to the outside. • Some loss of glass paint to the dove and the foliate pieces. • Externally, there are 4 ferrous fixing left in the stone, perhaps from old wire guard fixings. These are rusting.

These may be salvaged from the c.1850 glazing that was re-ordered elsewhere here, or simply pieces produced by the glass painters apprentice for use within borders. Here, as in the n windows much of this glass is placed inside-out. • Severe but localized loss of glass paint (see above right), especially to horizontal patterned strips • Numerous cracks to the borders, mostly stable • Blocked weep hole to lead sill • Internal angled sill has been repaired with gypsum plaster (lime would be preferable) • There are water run marks below the window and down its inner face • The bars have been replaced, some have sufficient ties to support the glazing, others don’t • Internally, the stone molding between the glass and the angled reveal is painted (unlike in the chancel where this stone has been left unpainted).
