St. Paul's: The Cathedral Church of London, 604-2004. Yale University Press: New Haven and London, 2004. xvi + 538 pp. $125.00 (cloth), ISBN 978-0-300-09276-9. Reviewed by Robert Tittler (Department of History, Concordia University, Montreal) Published on H-Albion (September, 2005) Essay collections on the history of English cathedrals have recently become something of a fashion, with significant volumes being published over the last few years on Norwich Cathedral by Ian Atherton et al. (1996), Rochester Cathedral by Philip McAleer (1999), and Hereford Cathedral by Gerald Aylmer et al. (2000). Yet given its far greater prominence and centrality in the history of the nation, not to mention the affluence and influence of its patronal community, no such work has, or is likely to measure up to the length, weight, and virtual grandeur of this volume celebrating the fourteen-hundredth anniversary of St. Paul's Cathedral. At 538 pages, 42 chapters from 46 contributors, and 389 images, many in color, this volume requires additional digits for any standard scale by which its production might be measured. Somewhat more open to speculation are questions about what it actually offers, how it will be used, and by whom. In order to orient the reader to its layout and guide him or her through the whole, the editors have sensibly divided the work into three parts. The eighth chapter, "Historical Overview," of part 1 provides a chronological narrative of the Cathedral's history from its archaeological site to its current state and operation, very usefully treating the Cathedral in the context of the City of London and England/Britain itself as it does so. That initial narrative survey paves the way for the more detailed discussions of specific themes in parts 2, "Up to the Reformation," and 3, "From the Reformation to the Present." Most specific issues have been treated in one-off chapters. Some of these, especially concerning the Medieval years, amount to mere vignettes of a few pages each. Others are of more substantial length and greater moment. Several other issues have been pursued from one period to the next in separate and successive essays: "Estates and Income" in three separate essays; fabric and furnishing in five; and music in four (counting one particularly novel and welcome one by Donald Burrows on orchestras). Above and beyond the lavish and well-integrated illustrations, and the intrinsic interest of some of the one-off subjects (especially but not exclusively Burrows's as above, Diana Greenway's on historical writing, Roger Bowdler and Anne Saunders's on post-Reformation monuments, Ralph Hyde's on images of the Cathedral, James Raven's on the book trade, and Nigel Aston's on pubic culture), these "serial" essays contribute particular scholarly strengths to the volume. Perhaps inevitably, though sometimes inexcusably, this strategy of mixing serial essays and one-offs leaves a few gaps. The treatment of music, for example, runs only from 1540, largely overlooking the medieval scene. A less excusable hiatus accrues in part 3, offering thematic essays on the period Citation: H-Net Reviews.

Part 2 having been brought to a close by Hannes Kleineke and Stephanie Howland's essay on the dean's household and daily life in the fifteenth century, part 3 opens with Gordon Higgott's chapter on Cathedral fabric to 1670. This usefully summarizes the decay and fire of the Elizabethan era, Inigo Jones's efforts at restoration, and the pre-1666 state of the building. But as if the broad chronological narrative of part 1 left nothing more particularly to be said of the Henrician and Edwardian Reformation or the Marian Counter- Reformation; the Elizabethan Settlement; the Puritan era; the Laudian "beauty of holiness"; or the Civil Wars and Interregnum, the next three chapters jump collectively to the rebuilding of the Cathedral following the Great Fire of 1666. Of the intervening 120 or so years, including the not inconsiderable episcopal tenures of, e.g., Bonner, Ridley, Grindal, Abbot, Laud, and Juxon, the thematic parts of the book merely contain essays on "Estates and Income (1540-1714)" and "Music (1540-1640)": both of them interesting, but perhaps not the most critically germane issues of their time. By their very nature, chapters dedicated to providing historical narrative will ordinarily contain less historiographical contextualization than those dedicated to exploring particular themes. We do not expect much in this vein from the opening eight chapters and are not surprised. But only some of the thematic chapters, which have the chance, actually do situate their subjects in much broader contextual surroundings; very few indeed take up questions raised by contemporary historical methodology. Nigel Aston swims, gently but perceptibly, against this sluggish current in exploring the contestation of the public space which St. Paul's had become by the eighteenth century, and he further distinguishes his contribution with some useful contrasts with Notre Dame in Paris. But the next essay, John Wolffe's treatment of "National Occasions at St. Paul's Since 1800," reverts to the more frequent device of straightforward narrative, albeit accurate, lucid, and well chosen. This may offer source material for those interested in, for example, the role of such occasions and of the Cathedral itself in the nation's collective memory, but it omits what might well have been a useful reflection of its own on those current subjects. In sum, different readers will find the work useful in different ways, and to different extents. It cannot be doubted that this tome would grace any coffee table which can hold its weight, and it is unlikely to be superceded any time soon as a work of reference. The general reading public will certainly enjoy owning it, and will find interesting things hoisted on deck in every single trawl. Any serious scholarly library must possess it. The scholarly reader will find it a valuable, often even definitive, source of information and reference, but will often have to make his or her own connections between the evidence offered in its pages and the larger questions which dominate current historiography. In such an effort, the complex and idiosyncratic design of the index, with its complex listing scheme under "London," and its decision to include lists of deans and bishops here (whether they have page references attached to them or not), rather than in conventional appendices, may be more burden than boon. Yet given the sponsorship of the project which produced this work, the grand occasion which required it, and the wide interest it will attract, perhaps this volume strikes the most appropriate balance after all, and is a most lavishly packaged tribute to its subject.

One hundred years ago, the then headmaster of St Paul’s Cathedral Choir School, Reverend R H Couchman, joined his colleagues from King’s College School, Cambridge and Westminster Abbey Choir School to consider the sustainability of choir schools in the light of rigorous inspections of independent schools and regulations governing the employment of children being introduced under the terms of the Fisher Education Act. Although cathedral choristers were quickly exempted from the new employment legislation, the meeting led to the formation of the CSA, and Couchman was its honorary secretary until his retirement in 1937.

J. TORR MANY years ago I published in Volume LVII of Archceologia Cantiana an account of a journey through Kent in 1723, which was copied from the version printed by the Historical MSS. Commission, and wherein are contained various interesting references to bygone Rochester. The long series of these closely-printed volumes comprises all sorts of items of local significance, but it is feared that they are lost to most people, by reason of the few public libraries which possess them. I now revert to the same source to set down in these pages the Kentish portions of documents of great historic importance, the metropolitical visitation of his province undertaken by Archbishop Laud, soon after his translation from London to Canterbury in 1633. I shall take Rochester first and Canterbury second, with warning to the reader that both reports affect only the cathedral establishments and not the respective dioceses. This valuable series is not complete for the province of Canterbury. There is nothing for the following sees, although it is known that their cathedrals were actually visited, the records not however included by Hit. MSS. Corn.: Chichester, Ely, Lincoln, Oxford, and Winchester (undated); and Hereford and the four in Wales, probably in 1635 or 1636. St. Paul's was left until 1636, and duly appears in H.M.C. In 1634 were taken Canterbury, Rochester, Sarum, Bristol, Wells, and Exeter, each with both injunctions and reports.

    Rochester Cathedral: Roof Repairs (1 project funded in 3 phases) Awarded a total of £832,000 between November 2014 and July 2016 The need The 2013 Quinquennial Inspection highlighted the need for a number of significant areas of repair work, with the full cost of the repairs in the region of £5 million, a sum far beyond the capacity of the cathedral to fund. Each area required urgent repairs to keep the building wind- and weather-tight, safe and open. In some place leaks had already caused damage to timber beams and threatened plasterwork in the historic Chapter Library. Around the north side work was Aerial view of the roof works in progress. Photo credit: SUMO Aerial needed to prevent falls of stone from split and Surveys. decayed shafts and ensure weather proofing to masonry below, and for repairs and weather proofing to weak, buckled and leaking stained glass and clear glazing. Falling masonry presented a danger to the public and would have required closing the north door, the main entrance of the cathedral for visitors and the only level access point. Outcomes The building is now much more watertight, making the building drier and reducing the risk of damage. There is no longer plasterwork falling from the ceiling. Due to these important works, further development work funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund as part of the cathedral’s Hidden Treasures, Fresh Expressions project could proceed.

It professes the faith uniquely revealed in the Holy Scriptures and set forth in the catholic creeds, which faith the Church is called upon to proclaim afresh in each generation. Led by the Holy Spirit, it has borne witness to Christian truth in its historic formularies, the Thirty-nine Articles of Religion, The Book of Common Prayer and the Ordering of Bishops, Priests and Deacons. In the declaration you are about to make will you affirm your loyalty to this inheritance of faith as your inspiration and guidance under God in bringing the grace and truth of Christ to this generation and making him known to those in your care?” Preface to the Declaration of Assent (Canon C15) These words introduce the Declaration of Assent which is made by those being commissioned for ordained and lay ministries in our church. They indicate the particular place which the Church of England inhabits in the life of this country. Our heritage is that of the Gospel handed down through the generations, but also the heritage of our ministry and our buildings, together with a substantial role in the nation’s public life. Our ministry has a significant impact on the stories people tell each other of what it means to be a Christian in this country.

  • MC Rochester Cathedral Speech 17.4
    Rochester Cathedral Business Guild Dinner 17/4/13 Rochester’s pivotal role in the XII Century, and why it matters today Sir Robert Worcester1 The Dean of Rochester, Ladies and Gentlemen, I hope you will forgive me for diverting from the title of my talk at its very start, but given where we are, in the very crypt of this cathedral, in light of the news the Dean gave us last October about the HLF grant for the restoration and development of this wonderful crypt where we are meeting this evening, I thought some relevant earlier history would be appropriate. My talk starts in the VIIth Century around the time this Cathedral was built. As Chancellor of the University of Kent, with a campus in Medway, I have the honour to hold graduation ceremonies in the nave of this church – and we robe in this crypt, so I know it well. When the then Dean, Adrian Newman, told me about the Textus Roffensus, the XIIth Century book (written in the early 1120s), the ‘First Code of English Law’, the laws of King Aethelbert in around 600 AD, I promised him that I would do my best to make it famous. As I stand in my robes at the top of the nave above us to welcome the University of Kent graduands, as I will again in July, I say to those students whose hard work and diligence have earned them their degrees, and their parents and friends, in my welcome: “It is a great pleasure to welcome you to this historic Cathedral, Britain’s second oldest, consecrated in 603 AD, some 14 Centuries ago.
