  • Exploring Cumbrian Churches
    EXPLORING CUMBRIAN CHURCHES The visitor to Cumbria must not expect to find the large and stately parish churches of, say, East Anglia or Wessex. More typical of this area are the little friendly whitewashed churches of the dales, built late in the middle ages or in the seventeenth century, as plain and straightforward as the men who made them. Few buildings survive from before the Norman Conquest, although there are many interesting pieces of Anglo-Saxon and Viking age sculpture including two of the finest crosses in England, at Bewcastle and Gosforth. However, it is a great area of Norman churches; time and again you will find the heavy pillars and rounded arches typical of the twelfth and early thirteenth centuries. Due to the wars with Scotland which began in 1297 there was little cash to spare for church building in the Decorated and Perpendicular styles, although there are glorious exceptions in Carlisle Cathedral and Cartmel Priory. Eighteenth century prosperity gave the towns some fine new churches, as at Whitehaven, Workington and Penrith. Cumbria did not escape the Victorian passion for church rebuilding -indeed the poverty of earlier years meant there was essential work for the Victorians to do. The primary function of all churches, whether pre- Norman or present day, is as a place of worship; and it is hoped that visitors will spare some time from admiring the structure of the buildings to join the local congregations at their services. Carlisle The Cathedral is a small cathedral for a small diocese - but for all that, a fine building.

  • The Freshwater Biological Association at Wray Castle: Recollections of Its First Director
    The Freshwater Biological Association at Wray Castle: Recollections of its first director Item Type article Authors Worthington, EB Download date 04/10/2021 15:25:46 Link to Item http://hdl.handle.net/1834/22166 24 THE FBA AT WRAY CASTLE 25 First Fifty Years. Ambleside, 1979), but some additional recollections of its early years may not be out of place in the pages of the FBA's newest venture. In the preceding article, Brian Moss has thrown interesting light on the very first phase, especially the definitive meetings of the Founding Fathers in December 1928 and January 1929. These were followed by a period of collecting funds - not easy as the great financial depression got underway - and discussions on where a research centre should be located. Initial ideas about the Norfolk Broads swung to the Lake District, so that part of Wray Castle became occupied by the FBA in 1931. Penelope Jenkin, Philip Ullyott (as Naturalist-in-charge), and Bobby Beauchamp were the first to conduct research there. J. T. Saunders at the Zoological Laboratory in Cambridge had already, by 1925, initiated the first British University course in freshwater biology, so potential limnologists were appearing and tended to form the nucleus of Easter classes at Wray Castle which were started without delay. T. T. Macan, who was a member of the Easter class in 1933 and joined the FBA staff in 1935, has recounted a number of entertaining happenings from then onwards in an unpublished script put together posthumously by his son, under the title "What you will not find in the Annual Report".
