  • A New Church Guide for St John's
    A New Church Guide for St John’s I promised the PCC some time ago that I would take on the task of updating the excellent Church Guide written by Derek Shorrocks back in 1992 which is now sadly out of print. The reordering has given a new insight into the history of St John’s, so it seemed that a good start could be made by preparing various sections and putting them on our website in the form of a blog, for readers to make comments on. The 2017 reordering of St John’s made no changes to the windows apart from carrying out a small repair to the arch at the top of the west window. ‘Chris’s Blog’, which kept everyone up to date as the reordering work progressed, made comments on almost every other part of the Church, so it seemed appropriate that some information on the windows might be a good place to start, so here goes …. Windows The major restoration of the church in 1857 made a radical alteration of style by replacing the square-headed windows with the present design. Sadly, there is no stained glass surviving earlier than this date. The first date that Churchwarden’s accounts are available is 1585-6. These early records show that there were regular items of expenditure for 'mending the church windows' over many years, so it is unlikely any ancient glass was in the windows when the 1857 reordering work was carried out. This is disappointing, but on the other hand there is the added bonus that there is information available to document when and by whom particular windows were installed.

  • Our Lady of the Sacred Heart a Parish History 1849
    Our Lady of the Sacred Heart A Parish History 1849 - 2004 The Church of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart, Weston-in-Arden, Bulkington, Warwickshire Our Lady of the Sacred Heart - A Parish History - 1 Our Lady of the Sacred Heart - A Parish History - 2 A recent view of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart Church looking towards Mill Lane Our Lady of the Sacred Heart - A Parish History - 3 This history is dedicated to past, present and future generations of Weston parishioners INTRODUCTION It gives me great pleasure to introduce this updated Parish History dedicated to past, present, and future generations of Weston Parishioners. A parish community is a very special place where people come together to live out their faith initiated at Baptism, to receive the Sacraments, to have a deeper awareness of what their faith means in their lives and live out the Gospel message of Christ. As a parish family, together with the priest we share in the joys and sorrows of life and hopefully support each other when difficulties arise. This parish from its humble beginnings has built up a rich tapestry of faith which has influenced the wider village community in many ways. The following pages give us glimpse of parish life in days gone by and the people past and present who have made such a valuable contribution to its mission. I would like to pay tribute to all the fine priests that have served this parish and have gone before us. Their hard work and dedication has been outstanding. May the Lord reward these good and faithful servants.

  • Dalrymple Crescent a Snapshot of Victorian Edinburgh
    DALRYMPLE CRESCENT A SNAPSHOT OF VICTORIAN EDINBURGH Joanne Lamb ABOUT THE BOOK A cross-section of life in Edinburgh in the 19th century: This book focuses on a street - Dalrymple Crescent - during that fascinating time. Built in the middle of the 19th century, in this one street came to live eminent men in the field of medicine, science and academia, prosperous merchants and lawyers, The Church, which played such a dominant role in lives of the Victorians, was also well represented. Here were large families and single bachelors, marriages, births and deaths, and tragedies - including murder and bankruptcy. Some residents were drawn to the capital by its booming prosperity from all parts of Scotland, while others reflected the Scottish Diaspora. This book tells the story of the building of the Crescent, and of the people who lived there; and puts it in the context of Edinburgh in the latter half of the 19th century COPYRIGHT First published in 2011 by T & J LAMB, 9 Dalrymple Crescent, Edinburgh EH9 2NU www.dcedin.co.uk This digital edition published in 2020 Text copyright © Joanne Lamb 2011 Foreword copyright © Lord Cullen 2011 All rights reserved.

After a career in teaching, Chris took early retirement and began to devote himself to the local Church. He became a Churchwarden, the first Benefice Secretary and a member of General Synod. Chris was always interested in history, and especially local history. It was never a nostalgic pursuit for him, but just one of the ways in which he sought to unite the past and the future, those who had lived in the village for a long time and those who had arrived more recently. In 1999, after these booklets were written, he played a key role in the establishment of the Okeford Benefice. This Pastoral Measure brought the Parishes of Child Okeford. Okeford Fitzpaine, Manston and Hammoon into one Benefice with the Parish of Shillingstone. As Benefice Secretary, Chris worked tirelessly to ensure that what we could best do together was done together, not only within the Benefice, but beyond, with the other Parishes of the Southern Blackmore Vale. He delighted in being able to assist in the training of our first Stipendiary Curate, Rev'd Michael Brierley, and in helping to foster other vocations to Ordained and Reader Ministry.

  • 2008 Bristol and Wells Conference
    2008 Autumn Conference: Bristol 28-31 August After lunch we were treated to a dazzling whistlestop tour of the extremes of old and new, thankfully whisked between hilltop venues by coach, thus conserving our energies for the abundant treasures within each. Gathering at the Lord Mayor’s Chapel, David O’Connor introduced its collection of late medieval glass as well as a late-18th- century portrait of Thomas Beckett executed in enamels by James Pearson at the peak of his career. We were then bussed up to the heights, to St Michaels on the Mount Without, for a look at more AWR windows from the 1950s – with St Michael and dragon in streaky red–yellow flames and seagreen–brown scales. Here also can be found a late 1960s east window by Harry Stammers, also some memorial windows to the Gloucestershire regiment who worshipped at the church, one depicting David and Jonathan, with lionskin cloak complete with claws. At the next two stops, the Old Baptist College and Tyndale Baptist Church, two windows in very different styles informed us of the fate his year’s BSMGP conference was at Bristol and Wells, an area of William Tyndale, a Baptist founding figure whose books were Twith a wealth of late medieval, High Victorian and modern burnt and who was imprisoned and then burned at the stake for his stained glass. On DAY 1, proceedings kicked off after supper with radical ideas. The first is an early window (1916) by AWR, 3 years introductions by the conference guides: first Geoffrey Robinson after he left Whall’s studio and very much in that tradition, with FMGP, who gave us a history of his career in glass and that of his prison scenes depicted in deep inky blues and the burning fires in father Arnold Robinson (AWR), who had worked for Christopher startling gold-pink Norman slab (photo below).

  • The Episcopal Congregation of Charlotte Chapel, Edinburgh 1794-1818
    The Episcopal Congregation of Charlotte Chapel, Edinburgh 1794-1818 Eleanor M. Harris Department of History and Politics School of Arts and Humanities University of Stirling A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Supervised by Professor David W. Bebbington 31 October 2013 I, Eleanor M. Harris, declare that this thesis has been composed by me and that the work which it embodies is my work and has not been included in another thesis. i Acknowledgements I asked Professor David Bebbington for advice on a local history project, and he sug- gested it might form the subject of a PhD. His methodical, wise, precise and thoughtful supervision was exactly what I required. It is thanks to him that I have produced a piece of academic work rather than a flight of fancy, and in this and in all my future work I shall owe him a huge debt of gratitude. It has been a great privilege to be supervised by him. The innumerable others to whom I owe thanks would form a prosopographical study in themselves. I have been supported by historians at Stirling, Edinburgh and elsewhere, and staff at the National Library of Scotland and National Registers of Scotland. I have been given opportunities to speak at conferences such as the Ecclesiastical History Soci- ety and Modern British History Network, and been asked thought-provoking questions by popular audiences in Edinburgh. Through the internet and social media I have dis- covered several family historians who provided information cited in the thesis, as well as a global network of lively minds helping with tasks such as ‘crowd-sourcing’ the word Caledonisation.
