Bishop Otter College Guild Newsletter 201 7 Painting by request, the first item purchased by the college “Autum Stream” by Ivon Hitchens is reproduced on the front cover Guild Newsletter 2017 | 1 Welcome to the Bishop Otter College Guild Newsletter 2017 Next time you visit Bishop Otter campus, you may like to visit the newly restored stained glass windows which have recently been installed in the new extension of the Chapel of the Ascension. Originally situated in the Old Chapel, they were removed and discarded when the Old Chapel was turned into a laboratory in 1962. When the building was decommissioned as a library and turned into a sport science library, the windows were found under the floorboards. On further investigation, some were also found in the basement of University House. The windows, which would have been in the East Window above the altar, were made by Charles Eamer Kempe, a renowned 19th century stained glass artist whose work, inspired by early Renaissance style, is distinguished by its detailed face drawings and shimmering greens. Kempe designed the windows to look at their most splendid on a bright sunny day with the sun illuminating them from behind. These windows are the last to be completed as part of a four-year project which began with the restoration of the three windows installed in Cloisters in 2011. The restoration has been sensitively fulfilled by Horsham-based stained glass artisan Cliff Durrant. A grant of £25,000 from the Bishop Otter Trust made the restoration project possible. 2 | Guild Newsletter 2017 Bishop Otter College Guild President Professor Clive Behagg Vice-Presidents Dr Colin Greaves Professor Philip E D Robinson Honorary Secretary Mr Marten Lougee 11 Meadow Close Cononley, Keighley West Yorkshire BD20 8LZ 01535 636487 (mob) 07813 393381 [email protected] Honorary Treasurer Mr John Fletcher 6 Colley Rise Lyddington Oakham Rutland LE15 9LL 01572 821213 IT Support and Editor of Newsletter Mrs Rose Savage 14 Crouch Cross Lane Boxgrove Chichester PO18 OEH 01243 773336 [email protected] Membership Secretary Mrs Hilary Chapman 60 Connaught Road Cromer Norfolk NR27 OBZ 01263 513711 From the Editor Well, another year gone by!

From the Guild Secretary Dear Fellow Otters Welcome to the Guild newsletter 2017 and thanks go, yet again, to Rose for all her hard work and to Hannah, the University conference manager. The rate for B&B will remain the same but there may be an increase in the price of the meals. There are NO events at Goodwood and it will be the same formula for the weekend. 1. The Friday evening meal has been a great success and it will be repeated this year on Friday 7th July at 7.00 p.m. You will need to book this with College on your booking form. There will, however, be a minimum number of 20 people required for this to take place but that number has been easily reached since it started in 2013. You will be informed by the middle of June if it is not taking place so you can make alternative arrangements. After dinner some people will meet in college around 8.30 p.m. in the old music room for a drink. Don’t forget your own drink and something to drink it out of if possible!! 2. On Saturday 8th July the timetable will be: 9.30 a.m. Business meeting especially for year reps and interested members 10.30 a.m. Guild Service 11.15 a.m. Coffee break 11.45 a.m. General meeting and news 1.15 p.m. Lunch The rest of day can be spent looking at exhibits etc around our old college, look at the changes and, most of all, enjoy meeting with friends. 4 | Guild Newsletter 2017 3. Sunday 9th July. 9.30 a.m. Holy Communion (said) 10.30 a.m. Trundle Walk (around 12.15/12.30 p.m. at the top) The Guild is a team effort with Colin, Hilary, Rose, John, Barbara, Hannah and me – the University is very co- operative in so many ways. At our Guild Meeting on 9th July 2016 I did inform the gathering that I would be stepping down as Guild Secretary on Saturday 14 July 2018 at the end of the event. Even though I appealed, nobody has come forward to take over the position. There is still time to volunteer!!!!! We welcome Professor Catherine Harper from the University of Portsmouth as the new Deputy Vice Chancellor (replacing Dr Sarah Gilroy), and Professor Jane Longmore from the University of Southampton-Solent will replace Vice Chancellor Professor Clive Behagg who leaves on 1st May 2017. We wish Clive well as he has always supported the Guild and I hope that the new Vice Chancellor may be similar as she has an interest in history. This really will be the last official walk up Trundle Hill and Bob and I hope that as many people as possible will turn out for the event. This is living history and a very old tradition. For those who can only do the very last part, you are most welcome. Some people did this in 2015. The event did not happen in 2016 as only three people turned up including the two leaders! Whatever the number this year it will happen even if it has snowed. (Remember those days?) Best wishes to you all (sounds a bit like the Queen’s speech) and I hope that you can make it – if you cannot your year will think about you. Sadly we are not getting any younger and age is taking its toll. Sincere regards as ever, you are a great lot. Marten Lougee Bishop Otter Guild Minutes of the Business Meeting of the Guild Committee held on Saturday 9th July 2016 at 9.30 a.m. in the Cloisters Welcome: Dr C Greaves, Chairman and Vice-President of the Guild, welcomed 11 other representatives.

    'Daylight Upon Magic': Stained Glass and the Victorian Monarchy

    ‘Daylight upon magic’: Stained Glass and the Victorian Monarchy Michael Ledger-Lomas If it help, through the senses, to bring home to the heart one more true idea of the glory and the tenderness of God, to stir up one deeper feeling of love, and thankfulness for an example so noble, to mould one life to more earnest walking after such a pattern of self-devotion, or to cast one gleam of brightness and hope over sorrow, by its witness to a continuous life in Christ, in and beyond the grave, their end will have been attained.1 Thus Canon Charles Leslie Courtenay (1816–1894) ended his account of the memorial window to the Prince Consort which the chapter of St George’s Chapel, Windsor had commissioned from George Gilbert Scott and Clayton and Bell. Erected in time for the wedding of Albert’s son the Prince of Wales in 1863, the window attempted to ‘combine the two ele- ments, the purely memorial and the purely religious […] giving to the strictly memorial part, a religious, whilst fully preserving in the strictly religious part, a memorial character’. For Courtenay, a former chaplain- in-ordinary to Queen Victoria, the window asserted the significance of the ‘domestic chapel of the Sovereign’s residence’ in the cult of the Prince Consort, even if Albert’s body had only briefly rested there before being moved to the private mausoleum Victoria was building at Frogmore. This window not only staked a claim but preached a sermon. It proclaimed the ‘Incarnation of the Son of God’, which is the ‘source of all human holiness, the security of the continuousness of life and love in Him, the assurance of the Communion of Saints’.

  • The Stained Glass of St. Nicholas' Church, Blundellsands

    The Stained Glass of St. Nicholas' Church, Blundellsands

    The Stained Glass of St. Nicholas’ Church, Blundellsands Text: Philip Collins; Photographs: Peter Batey Of the twenty three stained glass windows in St. Nicholas’ Church, fifteen are the work of four firms and the remaining eight are by unidentified studios. Apart from the three apsidal east windows, there is no overall subject scheme, the donors, albeit in a number of cases with the input of Caröe, being apparently free to choose their own subjects. The earliest glass is a window with a commemorative date of 1875 and therefore more or less contemporary with the building of the church, and the latest, a window inserted in 1924. In the beginning, the appearance of the windows from inside would have looked quite different. For one thing, the intensity of light on a dark day would have been much stronger, but then gradually, as windows were filled over the years, the glare would have softened until the present effect we see today was reached. 1 This description of the windows follows the sequence shown on the Stained Glass Plan (see below) and it begins in the sanctuary. For studying windows 1-5 and 12-14 the use of a pair of binoculars is recommended. List of windows and page number 1. Transfiguration 4 2. Crucifixion 5 3. Ascension 7 4. St. Paul 8 5.

    Sussex Connections, an Article on Charles Eamer Kempe (1837 -1907) and His Home 'The Old Place' Lindfield

    Sussex Connections, an article on Charles Eamer Kempe (1837 -1907) and his home 'The Old Place' Lindfield By Sally Walker, Sussex Gardens Trust, Autumn 2000 The Kemp family has been of note in Sussex for centuries but Lindfield, near Haywards Heath, boasts its own famous son. Charles Eamer Kempe (1837 -1907) was an artist and designer of all aspects of ecclesiastical decoration and is particularly remembered for his stained glass. Many are the windows of churches in Sussex which are adorned with examples of his skilled glassmaking. Charles Kempe visited Lindfield while still at Oxford and in 1875, the year after his mother’s death in Brighton, he purchased what was then Townlands Farm, the estate consisting of 200 acres, which he renamed Old Place. The house was a small manor dating from 1590 and owned by the Chal(l)oners. Kempe’s maternal grandfather had been a a city magnate and Lord Mayor of London, so he was able to combine his love of craftsmanship with the ability to employ and buy the best for in his new home in Sussex. The house he had bought had rooms too small for his purposes and more space was needed if he was to offer the hospitality that he had in mind for his friends. He much increased the size, and his purist style led him to create the additions strictly in keeping with the date of the existing house, without the affectations of his Victorian peers. The gardens are a testament to Charles Kempe’s vision. The style is arts and crafts blended with a simplicity that was in keeping with the style of the time he was emulating.

However, it is considered by many to be one of the finest churches of its period in the country. All Saints’ is the creation of George Frederick Bodley (1827–1907), an architect of international repute. In the tradition of the Tractarian movement he created a building which, through its dignity, beauty and craftsmanship, continues to bring visitors to their knees. The mediaeval church of All Saints in the Jewry, (i.e. near where the city’s Jewish community once lived), stood in St John’s Street, opposite the east end of Trinity College Chapel. Its history is documented from the late 11th century. By the 13th century patronage of All Saints had passed to St Radegunde’s nunnery. This nunnery was re-established as Jesus College in 1497, after which the vicars were normally graduates of that college. The mediaeval church was rebuilt several times, but by the 19th century it had become cramped and dark, with insufficient space for the congregation. In 1849 it was hoped to enlarge the old church. Three years later, due to the continuing development of the University and expansion of the city, the parishioners decided to build a completely new church in Jesus Lane, on land given by Jesus College, which would be nearer to where most of the population of the parish lived.
