Four centuries later, by special arrangement with the present Lord Petre, Exmoor Singers is able to offer you a unique opportunity to experience Byrd’s choral music in its original, private, surroundings. The music to be sung includes the celebrated Mass for 4 voices, composed for the Petres’ private chapel; a number of his lesser-known secular songs including Byrd’s sublime lament Ye sacred Muses for his teacher (and fellow Catholic) Thomas Tallis; his Lamentations for Holy Week; and his motet Tu es Petrus, dedicated to his patron upon his elevation to the peerage: “Thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church.” The afternoon will include: Guided tour of Ingatestone Hall Cream tea Performance by Exmoor Singers of music by William Byrd Tickets £25 Due to the exclusive nature of the concert, tickets are limited and will be sold on a first come, first served basis.

1 Finding Wroth's Loughton Hall SUSIE WEST the Open University
View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Open Research Online Finding Wroth’s Loughton Hall SUSIE WEST The Open University Lady Mary Sidney Wroth, daughter of Penshurst Place, Kent, made her marital home at Loughton Hall, Essex, and remained there as a widow until her own death in 1651.1 The house was burnt down in 1836, and little is known of its appearance or history. This is a loss in two major respects. Firstly, as the home of a major literary figure whose work draws heavily on her life, we might expect that the home environment she created was both shaped by and informed her evocation of place and space in her work. This is not to suggest that literary work can be read back into the built environment, but Loughton Hall should take its place amongst the houses within the Sidney circle: Penshurst Place, Wilton House and Houghton Conquest House, for example. There is more to say about its landscape setting. Secondly, Wroth had a role in remodeling the old house, and there is a tantalizing but unproven association with Inigo Jones, known to Wroth from the Court. This provides the second theme for this discussion, the Court and the classical tradition in architecture. The early decades of the seventeenth century in England are distinguished by what might be called a ‘classical turn’ in building, in the form of heightened awareness of and interest in the theory and practice of architecture as inherited from Italy and a Roman past.

THORNDON HALL Historic England Register Entry: PLEASE READ and BRING THIS WHEN YOU COME TO THORNDON HALL SITE SESSION! Grade II* List Entry Number: 1000314 From Historic England SEE https://historicengland.org.uk/listing/the-list/list-entry/1000314 The site of an early C18 park and woodland by Lord Petre, with mid C18 developments to park and pleasure grounds by Lancelot Brown and subsequent minor additions in the 1790s probably by Richard Woods, now a C20 country park and golf course. HISTORIC DEVELOPMENT The first contrived landscape at Thorndon came in c 1412 under the ownership of Lewis John, who built a brick lodge and obtained permission to enclose 300 acres (125ha) of parkland (Collins 1994). In 1528 Thorndon passed by inheritance through the female line to the Mordaunt family, who sold it in 1573 to John Petre, whose father had already built up a considerable land holding in the area. In 1576 John Petre was knighted and started an ambitious programme to rebuild the house and remodel the garden; on its completion, John Walker Snr was commissioned to survey the estate surrounding Thorndon Hall (Walker, 1598). Sir John was raised to the barony in 1603 and on his death in 1613 was succeeded by his eldest son, William. During the C17 little activity occurred on the Thorndon estate and in 1706 when the seventh baron succeeded, the landscape had changed little for 100 years. Robert James, son of the seventh baron, married in 1732 and moved the family from nearby Ingatestone Hall back to Thorndon. During his short life the eighth Lord Petre became a plantsman and garden designer and was at the forefront of a movement to fund and organise the importation of seeds from America.

Being confined to our homes in Spring, while the world is gently and beautifully warming and coming to life all around us is one experience- in this season of darkness and cold, it is quite another. Our remembrance, both over the festivals of All Saints ( Hallowe'en ) All Souls (Commemoration of the Faithful Departed) and Remembrance Sunday, usually takes place within a context of awareness of the joyful build-up to the Christmas festivities just around the corner. This year will be so different for very many people, with the hope of being together over the festive period and all that it means, now very much in question.

Difference all the way down Fiona Candlin, Jamie Larkin Abstract The Mapping Museums research team recently compiled a dataset of UK museums in existence between 1960 and 2020. In doing so, we had to decide what should be counted as a museum. In this paper, we outline the approaches that we initially took to establish the criteria for selection: adopting a conventional museum definition, using key characteristics, and respecting the venue’s self- identification; and we describe why they proved inadequate with respect to the heterogeneity of museum practice. We then explain how assemblage theory helped us conceptualize the complex realities of the museum sector and address the problem of selection. This approach has enabled us to develop a non-essentializing model of museums and to outline a more inclusive account of the UK museum sector. Introduction What is a museum? That question preoccupied the Mapping Museums research team for several years. We were compiling a dataset of UK museums open to the public between 1960 and 2020, and for the purposes of our study, we needed to decide what counted as a museum.

Heritage Statement
Heritage Statement 10 Fairfield, Ingatestone, Brentwood, CM4 9ER May 2021 10 Fairfield Heritage Statement May 2021 Introduction This document provides a brief heritage statement for 10 Fairfield, Ingatestone. Paragraph 189 of the NPPF requires any proposals for development which affect the historic environment to be supported by a heritage statement: ‘In determining applications, local planning authorities should require an applicant to describe the significance of any heritage assets affected, including any contribution made by their setting. The level of detail should be proportionate to the assets’ importance and no more than is sufficient to understand the potential impact of the proposal on their significance’ (NPPF para 189, 2019) A two-storey front extension is proposed, and this statement assesses any potential impacts on the historic built environment. Historic Background Ingatestone is sited on the route of the Roman Road between London and Colchester. Archaeological evidence in the locality includes Roman finds (Essex HER 5479) and the Parish Church incorporates re-use Roman brick and tile in its construction. The Saxon name ‘Inga’ or ‘Ginga’ probably interprets as ‘the people of the district’, and was applied to a large portion of the upper Wid valley. The ‘stone’ part may relate to the sarsen stones found in the locality. The Saxon settlement was probably centred on a manor house in the vicinity of Ingatestone Hall. In the mediaeval period the village developed along the Main Road and prospered due its location on route to London and its agricultural hinterland. The Knights Hospitallers controlled much of the land and granted the right of a market and three-day annual fair in 1289.
