  • George Edmund Street
    DOES YOUR CHURCH HAVE WORK BY ONE OF THE GREATEST VICTORIAN ARCHITECTS? George Edmund Street Diocesan Church Building Society, and moved to Wantage. The job involved checking designs submitted by other architects, and brought him commissions of his own. Also in 1850 he made his first visit to the Continent, touring Northern France. He later published important books on Gothic architecture in Italy and Spain. The Diocese of Oxford is extraordinarily fortunate to possess so much of his work In 1852 he moved to Oxford. Important commissions included Cuddesdon College, in 1853, and All Saints, Boyne Hill, Maidenhead, in 1854. In the next year Street moved to London, but he continued to check designs for the Oxford Diocesan Building Society, and to do extensive work in the Diocese, until his death in 1881. In Berkshire alone he worked on 34 churches, his contribution ranging from minor repairs to complete new buildings, and he built fifteen schools, eight parsonages, and one convent. The figures for Oxfordshire and Buckinghamshire are similar. Street’s new churches are generally admired. They include both grand town churches, like All Saints, Boyne Hill, and SS Philip and James, Oxford (no longer in use for worship), and remarkable country churches such as Fawley and Brightwalton in Berkshire, Filkins and Milton- under-Wychwood in Oxfordshire, and Westcott and New Bradwell in Buckinghamshire. There are still some people for whom Victorian church restoration is a matter for disapproval. Whatever one may think about Street’s treatment of post-medieval work, his handling of medieval churches was informed by both scholarship and taste, and it is George Edmund Street (1824–81) Above All Saints, Boyne His connection with the Diocese a substantial asset for any church to was beyond doubt one of the Hill, Maidenhead, originated in his being recommended have been restored by him.

Vernacular Writings in the Medieva} Libraries of Great Britain I Glenise Scott, Ph.0. thesis, Keel e, 1 980. ABSTRACT The thesis comprises four volumes: an introductory discussion; two volumes containing lists of religious and other institutions with information on the works in the vernacular languages which they are known to have owned; and a volume of indices and bibliographies. The information is obtained from the surviving books of the medieval period, here taken as extending to 1540, which are known to have belonged to the religious and other houses, and from their medieval catalogues, book-lists and other documents. With the help of the indices, one may find the information relevant to a particular house, to an Anglo-Saxon, French or English work, or to a given manuscript. The introduction makes some general’observations concerning the libraries and books of medieval institutions, lists the medieval catalogues and book-lists chronologically, and considers the various kinds of vernacular writings, with particular reference to their production and ownership by the religious houses. Finally, some areas for further research are indicated.

  • 16 July 2008 Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, Marsha and I
    16 July 2008 Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ, Marsha and I arrived in Shannon and then were driven to the Bishop’s House in the Diocese of Tuam, where we stayed with Bishop Richard Henderson, his wife Anita, and their ‘children.’ As previously posted, a great time was had by all. We then drove back to the Shannon airport with Bishop Richard for our journey to our next leg of this remarkable trip. We arrived at the airport where we were told that the radar at Dublin had ‘crashed’ several days prior, and that flights in and out were being delayed/canceled. Our flight, presently, was on time. We held our breath to see if we would get out. Our flight was, for the most part, on time, and we arrived in Dublin with plenty of time to spare. As we walked through the airport we noticed that most of the outgoing flights were delayed by several hours. Our flight to Heathrow was posted as ‘on time.’ It was only at boarding time that it was rescheduled for about an hour later. Once aboard, the pilot announced that if we didn’t all get situated in our seats immediately we would miss our ‘window of opportunity’ and would possibly not get out that evening. I have never seen so many people sit down in an airplane so quickly as I did that night. We departed about an hour late, but eventually arrived in Heathrow to pick up our luggage. (As one might imagine, two of our bags were the very last to come off the belt.) About a decade ago a young priest came to stay with us.

I DEDICATE THIS BOOK TO FAITH AND JACK AND MY NLECES AND NEPHEWS. n FOREWORD. 3T was suggested to me by my cousin, Alfred Ransford of Hunstanton, that being a native of Stratford-on-Avon, baptized there in the historic Church of Holy Trinity (Register Certificate No. 70;\ Page 89), and the grand-daughter of a Rainsford of the Clifford Chambers line, I should compile into a little book some of his genealogical notes relating to the family, which he has collected over a period of thirty years, in­ spired and assisted by a kinsman, the late Frederick Vine Rainsford, who began turning over Wills and docu-· ments at the age of eighteen, and devoted a great part of sixty years to research work. This volume is a brief outline of a typical English family, living in the beautiful homes of our Empire, yet facing the vicissitudes oflife, with its struggles and successes; amidst the hardships and dra\vbacks of a much less advanced civilization ; who, like numerous others, in response to the call of King and Country, have been leaders of men, in the Church and Services, in the legal and
