O. X F O R D. JOHN HENRY PARKER: DAVID BOGUE, FLEET STREET, LONDON. MDCCCXLVI. ^ ^4«^ fH\^' A G G 4 ^ ^ oxroBD : PRINTED BY 1. SHRIMPTON />t ADYERTISEMENT TO THE PRESENT EDITION. The Chronological Table which forms the principal part of this volume has been carefully revised throughout, the references verified, and cotemporary authorities quoted wherever it was practicable to do so ; in other cases when modern works are referred to, they are such as can be relied on, and the original authorities will generally be found there cited. A considerable number of foreign examples have also been added for the sake of comparison, which will be found highly interesting, as shewing the progress which the changes of style had made in differ- ent countries at the same time. For these improvements the work is principally indebted to the Count Mortara ^, who has spared no pains in examining a large number of the works of the chroniclers, and other cotemporary authors, and extracting such passages as suited the pur- pose. For the notices of the style of the different buildings where no authority is quoted, the publisher is responsible, these notices being generally taken from observations written on the spot while the object was before him, as he has found that memory is not always to be trusted in these details even for a short period. The value of the work will it is hoped be enhanced by the series of Inscriptions recording the dates of buildings, which have been carefully reduced from tracings or rubbings wherever they could be obtained, so as to preserve the form of the letters with the greatest accuracy ; others have been taken from Pegge's Sylloge, and a few from other authentic sources. Specimens of mouldings and other characteristic ornaments have been occasionally added from buildings of which the date was ascertained, for the sake of reference and comparison, and to shew that the system adopted in this work is not one of theory or conjecture, but grounded on ascertained facts. A few discrepancies may be observed between the dates ascribed to particular specimens in the plates, and the more exact « Except the first twenty pages, which were partly prepared by Thomas Wright, Esq. ADVERTISEMENT. ones since ascertained and given in the Chronological table ; this was un- avoidable from the want of time and opportunity to examine the history of each particular building with sufficient minuteness, in the first in- stance, and in all such cases the dates should be corrected by the table ; they are not numerous enough to be of much importance. A general Index to the three volumes has been added, which will enable the reader easily to detect any discrepancies of this kind, and will it is hoped make the work more useful by the facility of referring to any particular example or remarks upon it. In this Index the specimens of which there are en- gravings are distinguished by an asterisk, which was thought more convenient than separating the Index into two parts, one of engravings, the other of places mentioned, as was done in the former edition, TuRL, Oxford, January, 1846. ADVERTISEMENT TO THE FIRST EDITION. In the spring of the year 1840 the copper-plates and copy-right of Mr. Britton's " Dictionary of the Architecture and Archaeology of the Middle Ages" were sold by public auction to Mr. Henry G. Bohn, by whom the purchase was shortly afterwards transferred to the present publisher. After some consideration he decided upon publishing it as a Com- panion to the Glossary of Architecture, and extracting so much of Mr. Britton's Dictionary as suited that object, in preference to reprinting the whole as a separate work. Several different reasons combined to recommend this plan in prefer- ence to the other. The two works had so many points of resemblance that they must necessarily take the same ground in some instances. It appeared also that Mr. Britton's series of plates taken by themselves were far from complete, his plan had evidently been cut short and brought to a hasty conclusion : to have taken it up and completed it would have made a large and expensive work ; but by taking these plates as additional ilhistrations to the Glossary, they afford a large number of valuable examples, very few of which had previously been given in that work. As soon as this was decided on, it became necessary to affix dates to these new examples in the same manner as had been done in the former volume. The researches necessary to ascertain these dates as far as pos- sible, naturally recalled the idea which had previously been entertained, of adding a short Chronological Table and Index, which it is hoped will be found useful and interesting. In order to make this more complete, the heads of the different Kings and Queens have been inserted from the best authorities that were accessible, together with their respective shields and badges ; these latter are borrowed principally from Mr. Wil- lement's Regal Heraldry, with his kind permission. For the beautiful woodcut of Thornbury Castle, (see Frontispiece) which is given as an example of the style in use for domestic edifices in the reign of Henry VIII., the work is indebted to the liberality of the Rev. William Digby, M.A., canon of Worcester. ILLUSTRATIONS. Postling, Kent, Inscription . . . . .

A.D. 284. Palace of Dioclesian^ at Spalatro, in Dalmatia. Style debased Roman, with a row of stilted round arches on each side of the principal court. D'Agincourt, Histoire de I'Art par les Monumens, Archit. Plate 3. 313. ConclTision of the persecution under Dioclesian. " The blessed Alban suffered death on the 22nd day of June, near the city of Verolamium, which is now by the English nation called Werlamacestir, or Warlingacestir, where afterwards, when peace was restored to the Christians, a church of wonderful workmanship was erected." Bede, Eccl. Hist., lib. i. c. 7. 334. S. Constance, at Eome. Built by the emperor Constantine, and the burial-place of his daughter Constantia. The style is consistent with that age : it has coupled columns and round arches without an architrave. Gaily Knight, Italy, vol. i. Plate 3; D'Agincourt, Histoire de I'Art, Plate 8. 386—400. St. Paul's, at Rome. Commenced by the emperor Theodosius, and finished by his sons Arcadius and Honorius. The noble colonnade on each side the nave was composed of pillars taken from earlier buildings, supporting a series of round arches. Gaily Knight, Italy, vol. i. Plate i ; D'Agincourt, Histoire de I'Art, Plates 4 — 7. 410. S. Nazario e Celso, Ravenna. " This sepulchral chapel was built by Galla Placidia, daughter of Theo- dosius, and still contains the ashes of herself and her family. The sarco- phagi have never been disturbed, and are the only tombs which remain in their places of the whole line of Caesars, whether oriental or occidental." Gaily Knight, Italy, vol. i. Plate 6. /^-» 2 ROMAN. 414. Bede, describing tlie wall which the Britons are said to have built at this date as a defence against the Picts, by direc- tion of the Boman auxiliaries, says, " The islanders, raising the wall, as tliey had been directed, not of stone, as having no artist capable of such a work, but of sods, made it of no use." (Hist. Eccl., lib. i. c. 12.) Immediately afterwards, speaking of the last succours sent by the Romans to the Britons, Bede observes, " Thinking that it might be some help to the allies, whom they were forced to abandon, they built a strong stone wall from sea to sea . . . which was built at the public and private expense, the Britons also lending their assistance." [This wall is strongly built of large stones, but without mortar.] Portions of walls at St. Nicholas^ church, Leicester ; Wrox- eter, Shropshire ; York ; Lincoln ; Burgh castle, SufiPolk ; Sil- chester, Hampshire ; Dorchester, Dorsetsliire ; Littleton, Somer- setshire ; Castor, Northamptonshire ; Richborough, Kent ; tower in Dover castle, (vol. iii. Plate 38.) &c. 430. The Bomans depart from Britain. HomnntsQut. Architectural remains of this era in England very doubtful. 450. The Saxons arrive in Britain. The Saxons, in their invasions, destroyed the Roman towns and buildings — " ruebant fedificia publica simul et privata." (Bede, Hist. Eccl., lib. i. c. 15.) See a still stronger picture of the destruction of the towns and buildings, in Gildas, § 15. During the subsequent Anglo-Saxon period we only hear of Roman towns as being in ruins. Bede, speaking of the period immediately preceding the mission of St. Augustine, says, " There still remained the ruins of cities destroyed by the enemy, and abandoned." Lib. i, c. 22. 481 — 511. Clovis, the founder of the Prench monarchy. He embraced Christianity, and was baptized at Rheims in 496. 490 — 493. Palace and mausoleum of Theodoric, at Bavenna. The style is an imitation of Roman, but with round-headed doorways, and small pillars supported by brackets, and carrying small round arches, used as external decorations. The mausoleum has a dome 36 feet in diameter cut out of a single stone. Gaily Knight, Italy, vol. i. Plates 7 and 8 ; D'Agincourt, Plates 17, 18, and 59. 533 — 550. S. Sophia, at Constantinople. Originally built by the emperor Constantino in 323—334, but rebuilt by the emperor Justinian : considered to be the type of the Byzantine style. D'Agincourt, Plate 26, Nos. 1 and 2 ; Plate 27, No. 13 ; Plate 67, No. 4 ; Plate 69, Nos. 9 and 10. ROMANESQUE. 3 547. S. Vitale, Havenna. " This church was erected by Julianus, the treasurer, at the command, and with the assistance, of the emperor Justinian. The plan of this church at once reveals its eastern orig^in, and its affinity to that of S. Sophia, which had been erected at Constantinople a few years before. Instead of a Latin Basilica, it is an octagon, supporting a dome ; not however unprovided with the addition of the indispensable apsis. This plan must have come direct from Byzantium, and was the first appearance of the Byzantine style in Italy. The dome is composed of a spiral line of earthen vessels, inserted into each other ; and where the lateral thrust ceases, and the vertical pressure begins, larger jars are introduced in an upright position. San Vitale is a building which has obtained the admiration of successive ages. It produced such an impression on Charlemagne that he resolved to have it as exactly copied as his architects were able, and his celebrated chapel at Aix was the result. The mosaics which still adorn the walls of San Vitale are exceedingly curious and interesting, not only as works of art, but as aflbrding a tolerably correct notion of the costume of the Byzantine court. Some writers assert that Justinian was present at the consecration of San Vitale, but whether he was or not these mosaics represent the emperor and his empress, as if they were going in pro- cession on such an occasion, bearing oblations in their hands." Gaily Knight, Italy, vol. i. Plates 9 and lU ; D'Agincourt, Plate 23. 565. The church of St. Martin at Whitehorrij in the shire of Wigtown^ N.B.J built by Ninias^ a British bishop, who had been regularly instructed at Rome : '' qui locus, ad provinciam Berniciorum pertinens, vulgo vocatur Caudidam Casam, eo quod ibi ecclesiam de lapide, insolito Britonibus more, (the said Ninias,) fecerit.'' Bede, Hist. Eccl., lib. iii. c. 4 ; and W. Malmesb., de Gest. Pontif. Angl., p. 155. 568. Invasion of Italy by the Lombards, Many Germanic tribes, particularly the Bavarians and Saxons, joined the Lombards and Avars in their invasion of Italy under Alboin, which ended in the establishment of the kingdom of the Lombards, the capital of which was Pavia. In 602 king Agilulf embraced the Catholic faith. Several churches in the north of Italy are supposed to have been built soon after this period. 597. Arrival of St. Augustine in Kent. " There was on the east side of the city (of Canterbury), a church dedicated to the honour of St. Martin, built whilst the Eomans were still in the island, wherein the queen, who was a Christian, used to pray. In this they first began to meet, to sing, to pray, to say mass, to preach, and to baptize, till the king, being converted to the faith, allowed them to preach openly, and build or repair churches in all places." Bade, Eccl. Hist., lib. i. c. 26. [The walls of the present church of St. Martin, at Canterbury, bear marks of great antiquity, but they are concealed from accurate observation by the 4 ROMANESQUE. more modern casing and plastering. They have however evidently been re- built of old materials, amongst which are a number of Boman tiles.] 601. Pope Gregory^s letter to Mellitus. " When therefore Almighty God shall bring you to the most reverend bishop Augustine, our brother, tell him what I have, upon mature deliberation on the affair of the English, determined, viz. that the temjjles of the idols in that nation ought not to be destroyed ; but let the idols that are in them be de- stroyed ; let holy water be made and sprinkled in the said temples, let altars be erected, and relics placed. For if those temples are loell built, it is requisite that they be converted from the worship of devils to the service of the true God." Bede, Hist. Eccl., lib. i. c. 30. 602. Canterbury cathedral founded by St. Augustine. " Augustine having his episcopal see granted him in the royal city, and being supported by the king, recovered therein a church, which he was in- formed had been built by the ancient Eoman Christians, and consecrated it in the name of our holy Saviour, God and Lord, Jesus Christ, and there esta- blished a residence for himself and his successors. He also built a monastery not far from the city to the eastward, in which, by his advice, Ethelbert erected from the foundation the church of the blessed Apostles, Peter and Paul, and enriched it with several donations." Bede, Hist. Eccl., lib. i. c, 33. 604. The church of St. Paulj in the city of London^ and the church of Rochester^ founded. Bede, Hist. Eccl., lib. ii. c. 3. 621. St. Agnes^ Rome. " Rebuilt by pope Honorius. This church is built on the usual plan of the Basilica, but with galleries over each of the aisles, and side windows above the galleries, an arrangement nearly identical with the triforium and clerestory of the middle ages. The pillars are taken from earlier buildings, and are of the rarest marbles." Their capitals are either their own, or an imitation of the antique. Gaily Knight, Italy, vol. i. Plate 18. 625 — 638. Pope Honorius I. He had a taste for splendid cathedrals: much money spent in building churches. 627. Conversion of Edwin, king of Northumberland: the church of York built. " He was baptized at York, on the holy day of Easter, being the 12th of April, in the church of St. Peter the Apostle, which he himself had built of wood, whilst he was being catechised and instructed in order to receive bap- tism. ... As soon as he was baptized, he took care, by the direction of the same Paulinus, to build in the same place a larger and nobler church of stone, in the midst whereof the same oratory which he had first erected should be enclosed. Having therefore laid the foundation, he began to build the church square, encompassing the former oratory ; Init before the wall was raised to the ROMANESQUE. 5 proper height, the wicked assassination of the king left that work to be finished by Oswald his successor." Bede, Hist. Ecd., lib. ii. c. u. Edwin and Oswald built many churches. Alcuin., de Pontif. Ebor., ap. Gale, pp. 706, 707. Paulinus built a church in Campodono (supposed to be Don- caster) . " Nondum enim oratoria vel baptisteria in ipso exordio nascentis ibi ecclesise poterant sedificari; attamen in Campodono, ubi tunc villa regia erat, fecit basilicam." Bede, Hist. Eccl., lib. ii. c. 14. 628. Lincolnshire converted by Paulinus. " He likewise built in that city (Lincoln) a stone church of beautiful ivork- manship ; the roof of which having either fallen through age, or been thrown down by enemies, the walls are still (in 731) to be seen standing." Bede, Hist. Eccl., lib. ii. c. 16. 630. Paulinus is said to have built the church of Glastonbury of timber, and to have covered it with lead. Monasticon, t. i. p. l. 634. The West Saxons converted by Birinus. Florence of Worcester. 635. "Churches were built in several places/^ in the king- dom of Northumbria. Bede, Hist. Eccl., lib. iii. c. 3. 636. The East-Angles converted by Felix. Sax. Chron. 641. Mosque of Amrou-ben-al-As^ at Cairo. One of the earliest buildings of the Mahomedan conquerors of Egypt: it was subsequently enlarged and altered several times, but portions of the original work are supposed to remain. Coste, Architecture Arabe du Caire, Plates 1, 2. 643 — 648. The old church at Winchester, dedicated to St. Peter, built by Cenwalh, king of Wessex. Sax. Chron. 650. The kingdom of Mercia embraces Christianity. 651. Aidants church in a village near Bamborough. " When he was sick, they set up a tent for him close to the wall at the west end of the church, by which means it happened that he gave up the ghost leaning against a post that was on the outside to strengthen the ivall It happened some years after that Penda, king of the Mercians, coming into these parts with a hostile army, destroyed all he could with lire and sword, and burned down the village and church above-mentioned, where the bishop died ; but it fell out in a wonderful manner that the post (destiiia), which he had leaned upon when he died, could not be consumed by the fire which con- sumed all about it. . . The church was soon rebuilt in the same place, and that very post was set up on the outside, as it had been before, to strengthen the 6 ROMANESQUE. wall. It happened again, some time after, tliat the same village and church were burnt down the second time, and even then the fire could not touch that post ; and when in a most miraculous manner the fire broke through the very holes in it wherewith it ivas fixed to the building, and destroyed the church, yet it could do no hurt to the said post. The church being therefore built there the third time, they did not as before place that post on the outside as a support, but within, as a memorial of the miracle." Bede, Hist. Eccl., lib. iii. c. 17. 653. St. Finan built a church in the isle of Lindisfarne, " Nevertheless, after the mamier of the Scots, he made it not of stone, but of heivn oak, and covered it with reeds." Eadbert, afterwards bishop of that place, " took off the thatch, and covered it, both roof and walls, with plates of lead." Bede, Hist. Eccl., lib. iii. c. 25. 653. St. Cedd "built churches in several places" in Essex. (Bede, Hist. Eccl., lib. iii. c. 22.) The Middle-Saxons converted. Sax. Chron. 654. " Botulf began to build a minster at Ycean-ho." Sax. Chron., Florence. He took for his model the similar buildings which he had seen in France. The nearly contemporary writer of his life (Vit. ss. Bened., saec. iii. part i. p. 6.) states, Brevi necdum elapso tempore ad instar monasteriorum ubi couversatus fuerat in partibus Galliee, coeptum opus perfecit. 655. The monastery of Medeshamstede (Peterborough) begun by Penda^ king of Mercia. (Sax. Chron.) It was finished in 657. Ibid. Immanissimos itaque lapides in fundamentis coepit jacere, quales octo paria boum vix unum traherent, quos et nos vidimus, cum esset combustum et destructum ipsum monasterium. Hugo Candidas, p. 4. Hugo lived in the twelfth century. 657. Hilda built the monastery of Streoneshalch^ or Whitby. Florence ; and Bede, Hist. Eccl., lib. iii. c. 24. 660. Monastery of Gilling founded. 660. Monastery of Lestingau, or Lestingham^ near Whitby in Yorkshire^ built by St. Cedd. " In the process of time, a church was built of stone in the monastery, in honour of the Mother of God, and his body interred in the same, on the right hand of the altar." (Bede, Hist. Eccl., lib. iii. c. 2.3.) The present church of Lest- ingham is a very ancient structure. 662 — 671. The old cathedral in Brescia. " This church was built by Marquadus and Froardus, two Lombard dukes, father and son, with the assistance of king Grinioaldus. The walls are of ROMANESQUE. 7 stone, and quite plain. Within these is an insulated peristyle of eight piers, bearing round arches, which help to support the dome, in conjunction with the outer circle of the walls. This church offers an instance of the preference of the Lombards for the round form." Gaily Knight, Italy, vol. i. Plate 21. 669. The monastery of Reculver built. Sax. Chron. 672 — 674. Benedict Biscop built the monastery of Wear- mouth (Bede, Vita Abb. Wiremuth. et Gerv. ed. Giles, p. 364), and in 680 that of Jarrow. (Ibid., p. 370.) A year after the monastery of Wearmouth had been built, " Benedict crossed the sea into Gaul, and no sooner asked than he obtained and carried back with him masons (cmmentarios) to build him a stone church in the Roman style, which he had always admired. So much zeal did he shew from his love to St. Peter of Wearmouth, in whose honour he was building it, that within a year from the time of laying the foimdation you might see the roof on and the solemnity of the mass celebrated therein. When the work was drawing to completion, he sent messen- gers to Gaul to fetch makers of glass (that is artificers), who were at this time unknown in Britain, that they might glaze the windows of his church, as well as those of the cloisters {■porticimm) and dining-rooms. This was done, and they came, and not only finished the work required, but taught the English nation their art, which was well adapted for enclosing the lanterns of the church, and for the vessels required for various uses." Benedict then went on his fourth j ourney to Rome, and on his return " he brought with him pictures of sacred subjects, to adorn the church of St. Peter which he had built ; namely, a picture of the Virgin Mary and of the twelve Apostles, with which he intended to encircle the central nave (testudo) on boarding placed from one wall to the other ; also some subjects of the gospel history, to adorn the south wall of the church, and others from the Revelation of St. John for the north wall, so that every one who entered the church, even if they could not read, wherever they turned their eyes might have before them the amiable counte- nance of Christ and his saints, though it were but in a picture, and with watchful minds might reflect on the benefits of our Lord's incarnation ; and having before their eyes the perils of the last judgment, might examine their hearts the more strictly on that account." When he had built the second monastery (Jarrow), Benedict made a fifth voyage to Rome, and on his return he "brought with him pictures out of our Lord's history, which he hung round the church of our Lady which he had made in the larger monastery (Monks Wearmouth) ; and others to adorn St. Paul's church and monastery (Jarrow), ably describing the connection of the Old and New Testament ; as, for instance, Isaac bearing the wood for his own sacrifice, and Christ carrying the cross on which He was about to suffer, were placed side by side. Again, the serpent raised up by Moses in the desert was compared with the Son of Man exalted on the cross." (ibid., p. 366.) This account of Bede is of great importance, because he was an inmate of these monasteries, contemporary with the events he relates, and must have seen almost daily the pictures and ornaments he describes. |>J)ri)/CAT»0 B/4SIL//^AE SCI PAVLl V//»/ KL MAI ANNO xvEcraioi reg CEOLFfdDl ABBEiySDEM Q'ECCLES DO AVcrORE CONDf TOR/S AN/NO Nil 8 ROMANESQUE. The present tower of Monks Wearmouth is very rude both in design and workmanship, and evidently of remote antiquity. The church of Jarrow was dedicated in 684, when Ceolfrid was abbot of that monastery under Benedict Biscop : the follow- ing inscription is still preserved cut in stone on the church wall, where it was probably placed when the church was rebuilt soon after the Nor- man conquest. Pegge's Sylloge of Inscriptions, p. 15. The present church of Jarrow is of early Norman character, but it appears from the engraving of it in Pegge's Sylloge, that there are rude arches and other remains of an earlier building concealed by the plastering of the walls. Near the church are the ruins of some domestic or monastic build- ings of very rude and early character, much resembling the supposed Saxon. The straightlined arch or opening occurs over a door and a window, formed of single stones meeting at an angle in a very rude manner. 673. St. Etheldritha built the monastery of Ely. Bede, Hist. Eccl., lib. iv. c. 19, and Chron. Petriburg., p. 2. 674. The church of York restored by bishop Wilfred. He found the church of York, which had been built of stone by Paulinus in the reign of king Eadwin, in a complete state of ruin — " nam culmina antiquata tecti distillantia, fenestrseque ajjertse, avibus nidificantibus intro et foras volitantibus, et parietes incultse, omni spurcitia imbiium et avium horribiles manebant." He repaired the supports of the roof, covered it with lead, had the windows glazed, and cleaned and restored the walls — '' Primura culmina corrupta tecti renovans, artificiose plumbo puro tegens, per fenestras introitum avium et imbrium vitro prohibuit, per quod tarn en intro lumen radie- bat: parietes quoque lavans, secundum prophetam, super nivem dealbavit." Eddius, Vit. Wilfr., chap. 16. For glazing the windows, in all probability he employed the same artificers whom his friend Benedict Biscop had then recently introduced into England. See A.D. 672. Wilfred also built a church at Ripon. It was built from the foundations to the summit of smoothed stone, and sup- ported on various columns and porticoes — " in Eypis basilicam polito lapide a fundamentis in terra usque ad summnm aedificatani, variis columnis et porti- ROMANESQUE. 9 cibus suiFultam in altum evexit et consummavit." (Eddius, Vit. Wilfr., ciiap. xvii.) Eddius in another place speaks of the horns of the church — " a cornibus basi- licse nostroe Sancto Petro dedicataj." ibid., chap. 65. The same bishop built the church of Hexham in honour of St. Andrew the Apostle. " Cujus profunditatem in terra cum domibus mirifice politis lapidibus funda- tam, et super terrain multiplicem domum, columnis variis et porticibus multis suffultam, mirabilique longitudine et altitudine murorum ornatara, et variis linearum anfractibus viarum, aliquando sursum, aliquando deorsmn, per cochleas circumductam non est mese parvitatis hoc sermone explicare neque ullam domum aliam citra Alpes montes talem sedificatam audivimus." Eddius, Vit. Wilfr., cliap. 22. " Cum sedificantes namque coementarii murorum hujus domus altitudines, quidam juvenis ex servis Dei, ([e pinna enormis proceritatis elapsus ad terram, deorsum cadens in pavimentum lapideum, illisus cecidit," etc. Eddius, lb. c. 23. Wilfred built another church at Hexham, which he dedicated to the Virgin Mary — " construxerat quondam beatus Wilfridus in eodera vico ecclesiam in honore beatissimse virginis Marite opere roiundo, quam quatuor porticus quatuor respicientes mundi climata ambiebant." It was destroyed by the Danes, and afterwards repaired by a [Saxon] priest. Mirac. s. Wilfr., Act. ss. Bened. ssec. iii. part 1, p. 210. 675.

Brixworth Church, Northamptonshire, supposed to be founded by Cuthbald, second abbot of Medeshampstead (Peterborough), about this period. This churcli has been rebuilt of Roman materials at some period antecedent to the twelfth century, and the work is of rude character, but affords no evidence by which any judgment can be formed of the actual date. " Unde factum est ut ex ipso monasterio (Medeshamstedhensi) plura alia sint condita, et de eadem congregatione monachi et abbates constituti, sicut ad Ancarig, quod modo Torneia dicitur, et ad Bricklesuurlha, et ad Bredun, C 10 ROMANESQUE. et ad Wermuiideseya, et ad Repingas, et ad Wochingas, et ad plura alia."

Glastonbury restored very sumptuously by king Ina. Chron. Petriburg., p. 3. It took several years to finish the building of the churchy which was the same that was standing in the time of Dunstan. A MS. at Oxford (cited in the Monasticon) gives an extravagant account of the munificence of Ina, and says that a "chapel" was made of gold and silver. "Ina rex fecit construere quandam capellam in Glastonia ex auro et argento." The verses given by Pegge (syiioge, p. 14.) describe the church as having two towers in front. Anglia plaude lubens, mittit tibi Roma salutem, Fulgor apostolicus Glastoniam irradiat. A facie hostili duo propugnacula surgunt ; Quod fidei turreis urbs caput orbis liabet. Hgee plus egregio rex Ina refertus amore Dona suo populo non moritura dedit. 709. Acca succeeded Wilfred as bishop of Hexham. " He much adorned and added to the structure of his church, Avhich is dedi- cated to St. Andrew the Apostle. For he made it his business, and does so still, to procure relics of the blessed Apostles and martyrs of Christ from all parts, to place them on altars, dividing the same by arches in the loalls of the church." Bede, ffist. Eccl., lib. v. c. 20. 710. Naitan, king of the Picts, sent messengers to Ceolfrid abbot of Jarrow ; " he also prayed to have architects sent him to build a church in his nation after the JRoman manner, promis- ing to dedicate the same in honour of St. Peter/^ and Ceolfrid " sent the architects he desired."

"• The exact time of the construction is not known, but it must have been in existence in the early part of the eighth century, because Theodore, bishop of Pavia, was buried in that church in the year 750. It is impossible not to see in the Lombard churches of Pavia the original of the churches in the valley of the Rhine. The Lombard style was introduced into the Rhenish provinces by the Carlovingian sovereigns of Italy, who resided at Aix-la-Chapelle, in the immediate neighbourhood of the Rhine, and who passing some time, as they frequently did, at Pavia, could not fail to remark the churches with which it had been enriched by the Lombard kings. That such was the fact is suffi- ciently proved by S. Castor of Coblentz, which was built chiefly at the expense, and was consecrated in the presence of, Louis the Pious in 836, and is the earliest instance of the appearance of the Lombard style in the Rhenish provinces. Louis the Pious was often at Pavia, and held more than one diet in that city." Gaily Knight, Italy, vol. i. Plate 15. The church of S. Castor of Coblentz was in a great degree rebuilt by the provost Bruno in the latter part of the twelfth century, but the original plan, and portions of the original work were preserved, according to the opinion of M. de Lassaulx, of Coblentz, the architect employed by the king of Prussia to repair the church in 1830. M. de Lassaulx has investigated the history of the churches near the Rhine with much care, and his judgment may generally be relied on. See his notes added to the third edition of Whewell's Architectural Notes on German. Churches. Cambridge, 1842, p. 174. 750. S. Julia, Brescia, Lombardy. " This chapel is one of the latest works of the Lombard dynasty. It formed part of a large convent, founded and built by Desiderius, the last Lombard king. It remains in a very perfect state, and, with its cupola and arcades, is a pleasing specimen of the Lombard style." Gaiiy Knight, Italy, vol. i. Plate 21. 766. Ecgbert, archbishop of York, died. Sax. Chron. The church of York was rebuilt under Ecgbert. Alcuin, who was Ecgbert's scholar, gives the following description of the new building.

Charlemagne, the founder and restorer of a great number of monasteries and churches on the continent. 12 ROMANESaUE. 774. " Convent of Lorsch, Germany, in the Bergstrasse, be- tween Darmstadt and Manheim, founded in 764^, in the reign of Pepin, king of the Franks : the church was consecrated in 774, in presence of Charlemagne/^ See Mollei's Denkmiiler, Plates 1 — 4. " In 1090 the clmrch was burnt, but was soon rebuilt ; the ruins of this second church are in the style of the eleventh century, but the portico [or gate- house] which is here delineated (Plates 1. to 4. of Moller,) exhibits the dege-" nerated Roman architecture after the fall of the empire." Over the larger arches is a small ornamental arcade, the pilasters of which are quite of Roman character, while the arches are acute-angled triangles. The masonry is arranged in ornamental patterns. In the interior is an arch ornamented with zigzags, and with moulded imposts and bases resembling the later Romanesque work : the staircase at the west end of the building is evidently an addition to the original structure : it is in the rude style of the eleventh century. 788. King Elfwald slain at ' Scythlescester^ near the Wall, in Northumberland. A church was built in the place, dedicated to Saints Cuthbert and Oswald. Simeon of Durham. 790. St. Clement's, at Rome. Rebuilt by Adrian the First, but with little departure from the original form of that built in the fourth or fifth century. Gaily Knight, Italy, vol. i. Plate i ; D'AgincoTirt, Plate 16. 790—819. Church of S. Prassede, Rome. " This church was entirely rebuilt, as Anastasius tells us, by popes Adrian I. and Paschal I. It is on the usual plan of the Basilica, with the addition of a series of immense round arches, which are thrown over the nave at wide intervals, and assist in supporting the roof. Paschal, having completed the building, proceeded to enrich it with mosaics, which still exist. He also added, in the year 819, a small chapel, which opens out of one side of the church. It is a square building, with a vaulted roof. The sides as well as the ceiling of this chapel are covered with mosaics. It proves that even in the ninth century, on the eve of the darkest times, Rome still retained more of her former taste and abilities than has usually been supposed. The chapel was dedicated to St. Zeno, and is one of the earliest instances of a side chapel, which formed no part of the primitive churches." Gaily Knight, Italy, vol. i. Pi. 27. 794. The monastery of St. Alban's founded by Oflfa, king of the Mercians. " The reliques of St. Alban, up to that time obscurely buried, he (Offa) ordered to be reverently taken up and placed in a shrine decorated to the fullest extent of royal munificence with precious stones and gold ; a church of most beautiful workmanship was there erected, and a society of monks assembled." w.

" At a synod held at Celcytli^ under Wulfredj archbishop of Canterbury^ in which synod the first form of consecrating churches in England was established^ it was ordained^ that when any church is built, it shall be consecrated by the proper dioce- san ; and he shall provide that the saint to whom the church is dedicated, be pictured, engraved, or somehow expressed, either on the wall, the altar, or some pro- per tablet."

Adrian I., who was elected in 772, erected the first belfry : it was of a character very similar to this, and became the model after which most of the ancient belfries of Rome were designed. They are all square towers of brick, plain up to the height of the roof [of the church], and afterwards divided into stories by projecting cornices : each story has a greater or less number of win- Campanile of S.

The church itself has been too much altered to be cited as an authority. The magnificent case of the altar was presented by Angilbertus, bishop of Milan, who died in 861. The front is made of thin plates of gold, divided into compartments by thin stripes of enamel, studded with jewels. The sides and back are composed of plates of silver gilt. The plates are embossed with figures. Four pillars of porphyry support the canopy, which is adorned with bas-reliefs on its four sides. The whole is in imitation of the Roman style."

"One half portion of all revenues, provided they were justly acquired, he gave to his monasteries ; all his other income he divided into two equal parts ; the first was again subdivided into three ; of which the first was given to the servants of his court, the second to artificers, whom he constantly employed in the erection of new edifices in a manner admirable and hitherto unknown to the English ; the third he gave to strangers. The second part of the revenue was divided in such a manner that the first portion should be given to the poor of his kingdom, the second to the monasteries, the third to scholars, the fourth to foreign churches." W. Malmesb., de Gest. Reg. Angl., p. 25. King Alfred built a monastery at Athelney (in Adelingia), in Somersetshire, " fecitque ecclesiam situ quidem pro angustia spacii modicam, sed novo Eedificandi modo compactam : quatuor enim postes solo infixi tota suspendrent machinam : quatuor camellis opere sphserico in circuito ductis." w.

St. Paulas minster at London burnt, and rebuilt (or repaired) the same year. Sax. Chron. 963. Athelwold made bishop of Winchester. The next year he " made many minsters . . . and afterwards he came to the king, and begged of him that he would give him all the minsters which heathen men had formerly broken down, because he would restore them : and the king blithely granted it. And then the bishop came first to Ely .... and caused the minster to be made. . . . After that came bishop Athelwold to the minster which was called Medeshamstede, which formerly had been destroyed by heathen men : he found nothing there but old walls and wild woods. There found he hidden in the old walls writings that Abbot Headda had formerly written . . . Then caused he the minster to be built . . . This was done in 972." Sax. Chron.

" How powerful indeed the sanctity and virtue of Dunstan's disciples were, is sufficiently evidenced by Athelwold, made abbot of Abingdon from a monk of Glastonbury, and afterwards bishop of Winchester, who built so many and such great monasteries, as to make it appear hardly credible, how the bishop of one see should be able to effect what the king of England himself could scarcely undertake. I am deceived and err through hasty opinion, if what I assert be not evident. How great are the monasteries of Ely, Peterborough, and Thorney, which he raised from the foundations, and completed by his industry ; which, though repeatedly reduced by the wickedness of plunderers, are yet sufficient for their inhabitants." w.

Rames., c. 23. " One morning, as the monks left their beds, they beheld a great crack in the higher tower, from top to bottom, which threatened the ruin of the church by its fall. They applied again to their patron Alcuin. He came to Ramsey, and was received with great joy. The masons, when called to give their opi- nion, said the foundation had given way. Oswald, then at York, was con- sulted, and they pulled the tower down, and found that the workmen were right. They made a stronger foundation with stones and cement, rammed down in the earth, and built a more noble structure than the former. Hist. Rames., cc. 53—56. [There is no reason to suppose that any part of this edifice is now standing.] 969. Ely restored by Bishop Athelwold. It appears from the Ely history (ed. Gale, p. 489.) that much of the older building, which had been left standing by the Danes, was adopted into the new edifice. [But the whole has subsequently been rebuilt.] 974, Edgar^s charter to Malmesbury says, " In aid of my pious devotion, heavenly love suddenly insinuated to my watch- ful solicitude that I should rebuild all the holy monasteries throughout my kingdom, which as they were visibly ruinated with mouldering shingles and ivorm-eaten boards, even to the rafters, so, what was still worse, they had become internally neglected and almost destitute of the service of God ; wherefore, ejecting those illiterate clerks, subject to the discipline of no regular order, in many places I have appointed pastors of an holier race, that is, of the monastic order, supplying them with ample means out of my royal revenues to repair their churches wherever ruinated, &c." w.

Sophia, is a Greek cross, with the addition of spacious porticoes. The centre of the building is covered with a dome, and over the centre of each of the arms of the cross rises a smaller cupola. All the remaining parts of the building are covered with vaults, in constructing which the Greeks became expert, and which are much to be pre- ferred to the wooden roofs of the old Basilicas. Colonades and round arches separate the nave from the aisles in each of the four compartments, and sup- port galleries above. The capitals of the pillars imitate the Corinthian, and are free from the imagery which at that time abounded in other churches of Italy." Gaily Knight, Italy, vol. i. Plates 30 and 31. 978.

A cmious poetical description of Athelwold's work is given by his disciple Wolstan. Our extracts are from MS. Beg. 15. c. vii, in the British Museum. Istius antiqui reparavit et atria templi Mcenibus excelsis culminibusque novis ; Partibus hoc austri firmans et partibus arcti Porticibus solidis arcubus et variis. Addidit et plures sacris altaribus aedes, Quae retinent dubium liminis introitum ; Guisquis ut ignotis haec deambulat atria plantis, Nesciat unde meat quove pedem referat ; Omni parte fores quia conspiciuntur apertae, Nee patet ulla sibi semita certa viae. Hue illucque vagos stans circumducit ocellos, Attica daedalei tecta stupetque soli, Certior adveniat donee sibi ductor et ipsum Ducat ad extremi limina vestibuli. Hie secum mirans cruce se consignat, et unde Exeat attonito pectore scire nequit. Sic constructa micat, sic et variata coruscat, Machina quas banc matrem sustinet ecclesi;im. The eastern ' portico' was left unfinished at his death. Nam fundamen ovans a cardine jecit eoi, Porticus ut staret aedificata Deo ; Erexitque novum jacto fundamine templum, Ne tamen expleret raptus ab orbe fuit. 20 ROMANESQUE. The description of the crypts is curious. Insuper occultas studuistis et addere cryptas, Quas sic daedaleum struxerat ingenium, Quisquis ut ignotus veniens intraverit illas, Nesciat unde meat quove pedem referat. Sunt quibus occultse latitant quae hinc inde latebrse, Quarum tecta patent intus et antra latent. Introitus quarum stat clausus et exitus harum, Q,uas homo qui ignorat luce carere putat. Nocte sub obscura quae stare videntur et umbra, Sed tamen occulti lumina solis habent, Cujus in exortu, cum spicula prima resultant, Lucifer ingrediens spargit ubique jubar, Et penetrat cunctas lucis splendore cavernas, Donee in hesperium sol ruat oceanum. Machina stat quarum sacram subportat et aram, Sanctorumque pias ordine relliquias ; Multiplicique mode manet utile culmen earum, Exteriora gerens, interiora tegens. The crypts now existing under the east end of Winchester cathedral have been supposed to be the work of Athelwold, Monasticon. Of the tower, Wolstan says, — Insuper excelsum fecistis et addere templum, Quo sine nocte manet continuata dies. Turris ab axe micat qua sol oriendo coruscat, Et spargit lucis spicula prima suae. Quinque tenet patulis segmenta oculata fenestris, Par quadrasque plagas pandit ubique vias. Stant excelsa tolls rostrata cacumil^a turris, Fornicibus variis et sinuata micant, Quae sic ingenium docuit curvare peritum, Quod solet in pulchris addere pulchra locis.

Beginald of Durham gives the following description of the White church : " Erant siquidem in Alba Ecclesia, in qui primitus requieverat, duse turres lapideae, sicut qui videre nobis retulere, altius per aera prominantes, altera chorum continens, alia vero in fine ecclesise occidentali subsistens ; quae, mirse magnitudinis, gerea pinnacula in supremo erecta gestaverant: quae omnium tam stuporem quam admirandi quantitatem excesserunt." Reginald of Durham, p. 99. Three years afterwards the greater church was begun by bishop Aldhun. Eadmund his successor finished and con- secrated the western tower. Monast. [The present building is however of a subsequent age.] 996—1000. S. Maria de Plebe, Arezzo. " This church is perhaps the only remaining example of the ecclesiastical architecture of continental Italy in any part of the tenth century ; that century dming which Italy was in the most unhappy condition, and her arts in the lowest state of depression." " The exterior of the apse is decorated with arcades, a sign that the Lombard style continued to be employed in the tenth century.

" The plan is that of the Roman Basilica : it is a noble church of large dimensions, and in the style of its architecture, dismissing the Lombard alto- gether, seeks to return to Roman proportions and Roman simplicity, offering a remarkable contrast to the buildings which were erected at the same time in other parts of Italy. The pillars are single shafts, not stunted, as in the Lom- bard churches, but of good proportions, with capitals free from imageiy, and either antique or skilful imitations." Gaily Knight, Italy, vol. i. Plate 33. " In this church there is another architectural peculiarity. Large arches are thrown at intervals over the nave, connected with smaller arches, which are thrown over the aisles, at once assisting to support the roof, binding the whole fabric together, and giving it additional strength. Where these arches occur, the pillars are exchanged for compound piers, one shaft of which is carried up to meet the arch above." D'Agincourt, Plate 25, Nos. 20 — 28. 1013.

(W. Malmesb., de Gest. Reg. Angl., pp. 39, 40.) The Saxon Chronicle, which appears to be better authority, says that Siferth and Morcar were allured by Eadric the ealderman " into his cham- ber, and there within they were cruelly slain."

Cnut went to Assington, Essex^ " and caused to be built there a minster [or church) of stone and lime, for the souls of the men who there were slain, and gave it to one of his priests, whose name was Stigand." Sax. Chron. " Cnut repaired throughout England the monasteries which had been partly injured and partly destroyed by the military incursions of himself or of his father : he built churches in all the places where he had fought, and more particularly at Aschendune, and appointed ministers to them, who, through the succeeding revolutions of ages, might pray to God for the souls of the persons there slain. At the consecration of this edifice (in the Latin text it is called Basilica), himself was present, and the English and Danish nobility made their offerings : it is now, according to report, an ordinary church under the care of a parish priest."

The portion of the existing fabric to which the inscription refers, is that part of it which is built in the round style ; that part of it, which was begun nineteen years after San Miniato, at no great distance from that building, yet which, instead of emulating its advance, retains the defects of a corrupted style. Instead of pillars of good proportions, with capitals resembling the antique, we have here stunted pillars and ponderous piers, with capitals amongst the ornaments of which grotesque images are still admitted, though much less abundantly than in the eighth century."

Ulf, it appears, lived in the reign of Edward the Confessor. The stone is built into the wall of the nave, over a massive pier, between two pointed arches.

In the year 1675, a stone was dug up in an orchard near the present church, on the site of the chancel, which has long been destroyed, with an inscription commemorative of this event. It is now preserved among the Arundelian Marbles at Oxford, and the following is a fac-simile of the inscription :— + ODDADVXIVSSI(^^^lL R6GIAMAVIAMC0NSTRVI! lATQVGDGIDGRIINHONO RG STRINITATSPROANIMAdiRl mNisvieLFRicioeDeHOo tO(gASVPTAeALDReDVSVER01 ePSQVieANDeiDDCAVITIIIID BVSAPTXIIIIAVJEANNOSREG^^ viz., Odda dux jussit hanc regiani aulam construi atque dedicari in honore sanctcB Trinitatis pro anima germani sui Elfrici, que de hoc loco asumpta, Ealdredus vera episcopus qui eandem dedicavit iij. Idibus Aprilis, xiiii. autern anno S. regni Eadwardi regis Anglorum. From the forms of the letters, and also from the letter S indicating sancti, placed before regni, which would not have been said had king Edward the Confessor been alive, it is evident that this inscription is of a later date than the event it refers to ; but as all the circumstances therein mentioned are correct, its authority cannot be doubted. Odda, who was also named Agelwin, according to the Saxon Chronicle (ed. by Dr. Ingram, p. 232,), " was appointed earl over Devonshire, and over Somerset, and over Dorset, and over the Welsh," in 1051. The same authority (p. 247.) informs us that in 1056, " died Odda the earl, and his body lies at Pershore, and he was ordained a monk before his end ; a good man he was, and pure, and right noble. And he died on the 2nd of the Kalends of Sep- tember" (i. e. the 31st of August). Florence of Worcester, who gives a high character of Odda, says that he was a lover of churches, and adds that he died at Deerhurst, and that he received the monastic habit at the hands of bishop ROMANESQUE. 27 Ealdred a short time before his death " ; so that it was prohably on that occasion that the church was built. We learn also from the same writer that Alfric, Odda's brother, died at Deerhurst on the 22nd of December, 1053% so that this place was probably the residence of the family. The tower of the present church of Deerhurst is a very ancient building, and furnishes a remarkably interesting specimen of the supposed Saxon style. This tower is divided into two parts by a solid wall, and one part is covered in by a plain and rude cylindrical vault, the upper windows are insertions. Some other portions of the church are of early character, especially the chan- cel-arch. The chancel itself has been long destroyed. 1057. Earl Leofric died. He and his wife Godiva built from the foundations the monastery of Coventry. He also " enriched '' " 1056.

" Bishop Ealdred consecrated the minster at Grloucester, which himself had raised to the honour of God and of St. Peter. Sax. Chron., eel. Ingram ; and Florence. This cathedral was first built on its present site by abbot Wlstan at this period, and part of the crypt is supposed by some antiquaries to be part of the original work ; but the monastery is recorded to have been destroyed by fire in 1088, and the first stone of a new church laid by Robert, bishop of Hereford, in the following year. 1059. "In this year, on the 16th of the Kalends of Novem- ber, the steeple of Burgh (Peterborough) was consecrated. Sax. Chron. [No part of the present building is of this age.] 1060. About this date was rebuilt the church of Kirkdale in Rydale, Yorkshire, as we learn from the following curious Saxon inscription still preserved over the south door, on a stone seven feet broad by nearly two in depth. This inscription is to be read thus : — Orm Gamal suna bohte sanctus Gregorius minster "Sonne hit wes sel to- brocan -3 to-falan -] he hit let macan newan from grunde XPE t sanctus Gre- gorius in Eadward dagum cining, in Tosti dagum eorl. Which may be translated, " Orm son of Gamal bought St. Gregory's church, when it was all ruined and fallen down, and he caused it to be made new ROMANESQUE. 29 from the ground to Christ and St. Gregory in Edward's days the king and in Tosti's days the earl." The inscription round the dial in the middle is, — ^is is dseges sol-merca aet ileum tidee. 1 Hawar'S me wrohte ^ Brand presbiterus. i. e. " This is the day's sun-marker [dial] at every hour. And Hayward made me and Brand the priest." Tosti was earl of Northumberland from 1055 to 1065. Orm was murdered by earl Tosti's order in 1064 d. " As this inscription has been removed from its original place, it is now no evidence of itself as to what part of the church is Saxon ; but as the western door, now stopt, and the arch to the chancel, are both of them very rude, though in some degree resembling Norman, they may, on a careful examina- tion of them, be considered portions of the old building." Eickman. 1060. The cathedral of Lucca rebuilt from the foundation by bishop Anselm Badagio, who was afterwards pope under the name of Alexander II., and consecrated by him in 1070.

Epi- taphium autem ejus a Ricardo Herluini filio, ejusdem ecclesiae canonico, editum est, et super ipsum in cupri laminis ex auro sic scriptum est : Humani cives, lacrymam nolite negare, &c." — From this passage of the Historia Ecclesiastica (lib. iv.) of Ordericus Vitalis, who was born in 1 075 and died about 1141, it is evident that sepulchral inscriptions engraved on copper gilt or brass plates, were used in France at this period. The church Sanctce Dei genitricis Mariee, where archbishop Maurilius was buried, and of which Richard son of Herluin was a canon in 1067, is the cathedral of Rouen. Other similar inscriptions placed on tombs subsequently, but before the 12th century, are recorded in the same work.

Cathedral of Pisa, Tuscany, built by Buschetto. Artaud, Italic, p. 134. Flaxman's Lectures, p. 300. Style — Romanesque ; walls covered with arcades of round-headed arches. " The name of the architect of this noble structure was Busketus ; the plan is the long Latin cross: there are two aisles on each side of the nave ; tran- septs, and a cupola over the intersection of the nave and the transepts. In this church the principal of elevations has been successfully carried out, and in this instance the space between the arches and the roof is relieved by a gallery of noble proportions ; above which again are windows. An architrave, carried along the whole flank of the nave, between the arches and the gallery, re- produces the long horizontal line of the ancients, and completes the classic character of the building. The pointed arches under the cupola were intro- duced after a fire which destroyed the original cupola, and damaged the whole church in 1596." Gaily Knight, Italy, vol. i.

After the Conquest, " The Normans, as I have related, lived in large edifices with economy They revived by their arrival the observances of religion, which were every where grown lifeless in England.

The monastery and church of the Holy Trinity, or Abbaye aux Dames, at Caen, founded by queen Matilda. The church was consecrated the same year, but probably not finished for many years afterwards. See Gaily Knight's Architectural Tour in Normandy, p. 60. Style — Norman, with a good deal of ornament, and in a lighter style than St. Etienne. This church is more richly ornamented than was usual at the period of its foundation. Indeed much of the ornament clearly belongs to a subsequent age, which can only be accounted for by the slow progress of the work. The same peculiar capitals and ornaments occur here as before noticed. The crypt is remarkable for the extraordinary number of pillars that it con- tains, as if the builders were afraid to trust the vault, or had found it giving way. For engravings see Cotman's and Pugin's Normandy. 1067- The church of St. Mary at Jumieges, Normandy, con- secrated, king William the Conqueror being present. (Ordericus Vital., Eccl.

Style— Early Norman, massive and plain; arches square in section. For engravings, see Britten's Architectural Antiquities, vol. iii. p. 35. 1071. The church of S. Giovanni de Leprosi near Palermo, built by Eobert Guiscard, duke of Apulia and Calabria, and his brother count Roger. See, Del Duomo di Monreale e di altre Chiese Siculo-Normanne, ragionamenti del Duca di Serradifalco ; Palermo, 1838, in fol. p. 52, pi. xxviii. fig. 2. " The building is small, and much of what exists is reconstruction, but the external walls of the two sides and east end of the church are original, as well as its tiny cupola. The walls are well built, with squared stones in regular courses. The windows and doors in the lateral walls are pointed and plain, but have two sinkings. The stone cupola rests on four pointed arches." G-ally Knight's Normans in Sicily, p. 302. This church, of which the date is certain, offers the first known example of the pointed arch in ecclesiastical architecture in Europe. 1072. King William ordered a castle or fortress to be built at Durham. Eog. de Hoveden, p. 260. v. In the time of bishop Neville the bishops of Durham claimed a road from the castle through the churchyard and under the steeple of St. Mary. " That wee, for us our men and servants, have, and owe to have, and all our predeces- sors, &c. of time that no mynd is, have had, a way through a gate within the stepill of the church of St. Mary the Virgine, in the North Ballyve, on the West partie, &c. &c."

De Las- saulx's Notes, &c. p. 217. "It was built by archbishop Anno, towards 1060. Formerly it was not vaulted. At the time of the vaulting the light pillars which support the walls 36 WILLIAM I. being considered too weak, other pillars were erected between some of the arcades, by means of which the present alternation of large and small arches originated." Not long before the above-mentioned date the baptismal chapel, belonging to the same church, was begun. Style — Early Norman -. the vault without ribs, a good deal like the chapel in the White Tower. See Boisseree, plates xxi. to xxiv. 1076. Evreux cathedral;, Normandy, consecrated. See Gaily Knight^s Tour in Normandy, p. 176, and the authorities there referred to.

The church of St. Alban's monastery, Hertford- shire, built principally by abbot Paul de Caen, who died in 1093, but completed by his successor, Richard de Albini, and dedi- cated in 1115. "Paulus Monachus Cadomensis, quarto Ka- lendas Julii, Ecclesiam beati Angloeum Protomartyris Al- BANi, regendam suscepit : qui earn in brevi, consiHo Lanfranci Cantuariensis Archiepiscopi et auxilio, multipliciter ampliavit.

The central tower, transepts, and part of the nave are of this period. Style — Early Norman, wide jointed and rude work, with Roman bricks mixed irregularly with rubble stone work : balustre shafts used abundantly ; a great deal of tile used in all the early parts of the building, especially for turning the arches, and for the newels of the stair-cases.

Neustria Pia, p. 691, and Gaily Knight's Tour in Norman cly, p. 19. Style — Good Norman. The masonry is in part wide jointed, and in other parts not so. There is every appearance of the work having been continued for a long series of years. The west part and chapter-house are evidently of later date than other parts of the church. There is a stone gallery across the end of the transept, vaulted underneath, as at Winchester and Hexham. 1081. The church of S. Pietro la Bagnara at Palermo, com- pleted.

Dugdale's Hist, of St. Paul's Cathedral, p. 4. William of Malmesbury, speaking of it (de Gest. Pontif. Angl., p. 134. v.), says, that "tanta est decoris magnificentia, ut merito inter prseclara numeretur aedificia : tanta cryptfe laxitas, tanta superioris aedis capacitas, ut cuilibet populis multitudinis videatur posse sufficere. Quia igitur Mauritius erat mentis immo- dicus, laboriosi operis impensam transmisit ad posteros." It was completed only in the year 1240 by his successors. 1083 — 1106.

Hist., lib. vii. p. 213. v., and Rog. de Hoveden Annal., p. 265. v. The pai't remaining of this date consists of the three lofty Norman arches in the west front, of very plain character, in which are inserted the rich Norman doorways of bishop Alexander. See Vetusta Monumenta, vol. iii. Style — Early Norman, very plain, with wide jointed masonry. 1087—1113. The church of St. Niccolo, at Bari in the king- dom of Naples. Ordericus Vitalis, Eccl. Hist., lib. vii. p. 653. " This building is on a large scale, but without transepts, repeating the plan of the Latin basilica. In style it imitates the Roman more faithfully than did the churches of the north of Italy, which were built at the same time. In front of the principal doors there are projecting porches; the cross of the porches are supported by pillars, of which the two foremost rest on the backs of animals." Gaily Knight's Italy, vol. i.

The abbey church of Laach near the Rhine, " Built in the purest round-arch style, without buttresses, and without the slightest trace of a pointed arch, possesses, like the great cathedrals at Mentz, Worms, and Spires, two choirs and two transepts, the latter bearing each a large tower, and two others, one on each side. Everything is most richly adorned with the best ornaments, and every part of the work is executed in the best and most beautiful manner. It deserves to take the lead of all the trea- sures of our land of Treves, and is of the highest value to connoisseurs and amateurs of art." De Lassaulx's Notes on the Churches of the Rhine, p. 196. See Boisseree, Plates 25, 26. 1093 or 1094. The church of Lindisfarne built. According to Reginald of Durham, Edward, a monk of Durham, was the architect or superintendent of the work. " Unde et novam ecclesiam in beati Cuthberti honorem infra prsedictam in- sulam a fundamentis erexit, quam de lapidibus tabulatis, miro dispositionis ordine, de industriae suae laboribus et de fidelis populi largitionibus venusto artificum opere consummavit. Sed quia in prsescripta insula minus lapidum poterat inveniri sufficientia, de vicinis villulis plaustra et boum jugacum carris adquiserat, et tantis longioris interstitii dispendiis, et diversi laboris impendiis, lapidum multitudinem devehendo aggregaverat." Reginald. Duueim., cap. 21. p. 45. The masonry of the present remains at Lindisfarne answers perfectly to Eeginald's description. The church and its offices are chiefly built of red sandstone from the opposite coast. The whin-stone of the island is used in the manner indicated by Reginald. " Unde ad tanti operis negotia non suffecerant, sed tamen ad interioris materiae diminutiora fragmenta aliquod adjumentum impendere prsevalebant." 1096 — 1119. Norwich cathedral: choir, aisles, transept and tower. Herbert, surnamed Losinga (i. e. the flatterer), bishop of Thetford, having translated hither his see, commenced this cathedral on its present site, by command of the pope, as a G 42 WILLIAM II, penance for his simony. Annal. S. Edmundi, MS. Harl. 447; Godwin, p. 428 ; Tanner, Notitia, p. 238 ; and Camden, col. 462. The greater part of the existing structure is his work, though much altered in appearance by the subsequent insertion of windows. Style — The original parts are of Early Norman character, with wide-jointed masonry. Arcades, vol. iii. PI. 1. fig. 5. Doorway, vol. iii. PI. 30. fig. 3. 1096 — 1110. The eastern part of Canterbury cathedral re- built more magnificently than it was before, by prior Ernulf. " Cantise dejectam priorem partem ecclesife, quam Lanfrancus sedificaverat, adeo splendida erexit, ut nihil tale possit in Anglia videri, in vitrearum fene- strarum luce, in marmorei pavimenti nitore, in diversicoloribus picturis, quae mirantes oculos trahunt ad fastigia lacunaris." w. Maimesb. de Gest. Pontif. Angi., p. 133. The chancel, however, which Ernulf left unfinished, was superbly completed by his successor Conrad, who decorated it with excellent paintings, and furnished it with pi'ecious ornaments. Angi.

Gaily Knight's Noi-mans in Sicily, p. 116, and Illus- trations, PI. vii. 1099—1108. The cathedral of Modena. "The name of the architect of this building was Lanfrancus, as is proved by an inscription still extant on one of the external walls. The style of the architecture is Lombard throughout. External arches ornament both the west end and the great semi-circular apse. In the interior, monsters and grotesque images are still retained in the capitals of some of the pillars. But a feature which is not found in the old Lombard churches, may be remarked here in the large projecting porch, two stories in height, which advances before the prin- cipal entrance, and in the lions on the backs of which the pillars of the porch repose." Gaily Knight's Italy, vol. i. PI, 40. The inscription says: Ingenio claras, Lanfrancus doctus, et aptus, Est operis prmceps hujus, rectorque magister. 1099. Jerusalem besieged by the crusaders. " Raimund was actively employed before the tower of David. This fortress, defending the city on the west, and strengthened nearly half way up by courses of squared stone soldered with lead, repels every fear of invaders, when guarded by a small party within." W. Malmesb. de Gest. Reg. Angl., p. 79. v. 1100. The chapel of Godfrey of Bouillon in the church of the Holy Sepulchre at Jerusalem built. The style is plain early Norman with a groined vault. D'Agincourt, PI. xxvii. Nos. 23, 24. 1100. "A few countrymen conveyed the body [of William Rufus], placed on a cart, to the cathedral of Winchester, the blood dripping from it all the way. Here it was committed to the ground within the tower, attended by many of the nobility, though lamented by few. Next year the tower fell ; though I forbear to mention the different opinions on this subject, least 44 HENRY I. I should seem to assent too readily to unsupported trifles ; more especially as the building might have fallen through imper- fect construction, even though he had never been buried there/' W.

" The king munificently repaired the damage of that church (Bayeux, in Normandy), and it is not easy to relate how much Robert ennobled by his favour the monastery of Tewkesbury." w. Malmesb., de Gest. Reg. Angl., p. 89. The west end and arches of the nave are in the Normau style of this period. The pinnacles appear to have been added afterwards. Turret, vol. ii. PI. 141. 1103 — 1116. St. Botolph's priory church, at Colchester, Essex, founded by Ernulph, a monk, afterwards abbot of Peter- borough, in 1103, and supposed to have been completed about 1116, when a papal bull invested the priory with peculiar privi- leges. Monasticon, vol. vi. p. 104. It is built of brick and rubble, supposed to be partly taken from the ruins of some Roman building. The imposts of the arches are formed of brick, and HENRY I. 45 the arches are turned entirely of tiles. This is also the case in almost every church of the town and neighbourhood of Colchester. Style — Early Norman, with intersecting arcades. Arcades, vol. ii. PI. 4. — vol. iii. PI. 3. fig. 1. For other engravings, see Britton's Architectural Antiquities, vol. i. p. 2. 1104 — 1128. Durham cathedral, nave and aisles. Bishop Flambard continued the work of his predecessor in the same style. " He raised the walles of the body of his church unto the roofe : he translated the reliques of Saint Cuthbert into the new churchj and bestowed a shryne upon him. Moreover he compassed the citie with a wall." Godwin, p. 511. Some curious descriptive particulars relating to Durham cathedral, as it stood in the middle of the twelfth century, are given by Reginald of Durham, chap. Ixxxix. p. 190. Style — Early Norman, very massive. 1107. Fall of the tower of Winchester cathedral. Annal. Winton. The tower and part of the transepts were rebuilt soon after the fall ; and in the new work fine-jointed masonry is used: the older work is wide-jointed. Masonry, vol. ii. PI. 73. 1107.

The monastery and church of Hexham, Northumber- land, restored by Thomas, the younger, archbishop of York, and given by king Henry I. to the Austin canons. Monasticon, vol. vi. p. 179. This monastic establisliment was founded in 674 by St. Wilfrid. In the ninth century the Danes ravaged and burned it twice. Under Edward the Confessor, Alverd, or Elfred, called Larva, i.e. doctor, secretary to Durham cathedral, repaired part of the monastery ; and subsequently his son restored the church. The walls of it were standing, but " sine tegmine," and covered with dirt, and overgrown with wood. He therefore "succisa quae supercreverat sylva, purgatis ab omni sorde parietibus, totam ecclesiam tegulis texit; et litis intus et extra parietibus, antiqua eam pictura et venustate decoravit. Strato autem in parte orientali ex quadris lapidibus pavimento, altare sub- nexum Columnis loco COngrUO COllocavit." Mirac. S. Wilefridi, Act. SS. Benedict., s£ec. iii. pars i. pp. 214* — 215*. Simeon of Durham, who lived towards the end of the eleventh century, gives (sub an. 788) the following description of the monastery of Hexham, which he appears to have considered as existing in his days nearly as Wilfrid had left it. " Prgecellit opus ipsius coeuobii csetera sedificia in gente Anglorum, licet niulta sint, et inedicibilia in plerisque locis ; sed in eo loco longitudines lati- tudinesque, atque pulchritudines excellunt. In quo ccenobio sunt parietes variis coloribus exornati, et historiae depictae, sicut supradictus Wilfridus epi- scopus instituit." The present crypt of the church is sujiposed to be of Wilfrid's time. See Archaeological Journal, vol. ii. The nave is destroyed ; the chancel and tran- septs which form the present church are of the thirteenth century. 1114. The foundation of the church of Croyland laid. Chron. Petriburg. 1114.

Salisbury cathedral rebuilt, and part of Malmes- bury abbey built, by bishop Roger. " He (bishop Roger) was a prelate of great mind, and spared no expense towards completing his designs, especially in buildings ; which may be seen in other places, but more particularly at .Salisbury and at Malmesbury ; for there he erected extensive edifices at vast cost, and with surpassing beauty, the courses of stone being so correctly laid that the joint deceives the eye, and leads it to imagine that the whole wall is composed of a single block. He built aucw HENRY I. 47 the church of Salisbury, and beautified it in such a manner that it yiekls to none in England, but surpasses many ; so that he had just cause to say, ' Lord, I have loved the glory of Thy house.'" William of Malmesbury,Sharpe'stransl., p. 504. This passage of William of Malmesbury is worthy of particular notice, as it seems that this mode of building with fine-jointed masonry, struck him as remarkable, from which we may infer that it was not then in general use ; and in confirmation of this it may be observed, that the work of a previous date has generally wide joints between the stones, as in the older parts of Win- chester and Canterbury. 1117. Peterborough cathedral having been burnt in the pre- ceding year, a new one was begun from the foundation by John de Seez, who formed the whole plan of it; and in 1143 it was consecrated. Chron.

St. James's tower at Bury St. Edmund's, built 48 HENRY I. by Radulphus and Herseus, the sacrists, at the same time that abbot Anselm built St. James's church : others suppose it to be part of the work of abbot Baldwin, who rebuilt the abbey church, which was consecrated in 1095. It is a gateway tower of the abbey, but called St. James's tower. See Biitton's Architectural Antiquities, vol. iii. p. 84.

Over the south door of the chancel there is a niche with a trefoil head, the upper part of which is cut out of one large stone, bearing the following rude inscription. All the letters are raised on the face of the stone, except those signifying XXIIII, which are cut into it. The tower of this church is rich Norman work, with the square billet. HENRY I. 49 the hatchet, and scolloped ornaments. Other parts of the church are of the same period, and there is another inscription cut in wood on the south door of the nave, which is also of very early character : but the chancel has been in a great degree rebuilt in the thirteenth century, preserving, however, the Norman sedilia, and other parts of the Norman work, among which is the inscription above given, and probably the whole niche, for although the trefoil head is not usual in Norman work, it is occasionally met with ; and this niche appears ruder than the Early English doorway over which it is placed.

A considerable part of the domestic buildings of the abbey are good Norman : the church is later. 1133. St. Bartholomew's church, Smithfield, London, founded by Rahere at this date. Stow's Survey of London. Style — Norman ; pointed arches occur, but in a situation where necessity, or manifest convenience, appears to have dictated them. They are the north and south arches of the original central tower, the east and west arches being much wider and of a segmental form : but as the clerestory is Early English, HENRY I. 51 both in the choir which forms the present church, and in that portion of the nave which remains, it seems probable that these pointed arches were altered at the time the clerestory was rebuilt: this opinion is strengthened by the character of the ornaments in the spandrels, which are quite Early English. 1133. Porchester churchj Hampshire. Monasticon, vol. vi. p. 243. A priory of canons of the order of St. Augustine was founded by king Henry I. within the walls of Porchester castle. It was removed about twenty years afterwards to Southwick, but the church which they had built in the castle still remains. Style — Norman.

Much of the work bears considerable resemblance to English work of the same period, but it has domical vaults and cupolas, with inscriptions.

THE FOfcLOWING EXAMPLES ARE SUPPOSED TO BE OF THE TIME OF KING STEPHEN. Iffley church, Oxfordshire. The age of this church has been much disputed, but the style is late Norman, and very rich ; the Sagittarius, or mounted archer, the heraldic badge of Stephen, is used as an ornament, and may be considered as evidence that the church was built in his reign.

Rickmau, p. 126. STEPHEN. 59 St. Peter's churchy Northampton. There is no record of the time at which this curious and interesting huikling was erected ; we are therefore thrown upon comparison to ascertain its date. The arches are square in section, and ornamented with the zigzag only, which would seem to indicate an early date. On the other hand, the banded columns usually belong to a late period, and the singvdar rounded buttresses at the west end have not at all the appearance of early Norman work.

It was commenced by bishop Maurice de Sully in the year 1163, and completed before 1185. Heraclius, the patriarch of Jerusalem, who had come to Paris to preach the crusade, celebrated high mass in the choir of this cathe- dral, on January 17th of the same year, in the presence of the bishop and his clergy. " Bishop Maurice de Sully did not live to complete the edifice he had founded, but at his death in 1196, left one hundred livres towards the expense of covering it with lead. After his death, in 1208, Pierre de Nemours, and the bishops his successors, terminated the erection of this grand ecclesiasti- cal edifice, one of the earliest examples of the pointed style of architecture." Winkles, p. 34. Style — Transition Norman and Early French : arches pointed, with flat soffits ; capitals richly sculptured ; pillars plain round ; vaidting simple, with arch ribs, and groin ribs. The chapels round the choir are of considerably later date. 1163—1182. The choir of St. Germain des Pres, Paris. Transition from Norman. 1164.

Gaily Knight's Normans in Sicily, pp. 248, 249. " Of the fabric of Walter little remains but the crypt, a portion of the south side of the church, and a portion of the east end. The south side has pointed windows, surrounded with a moulding peculiar to the Saracens ; and under the eaves of the east end, grotesque heads are to be seen of Norman cha- racter." 1170 — 1174.

The cathedral of Monreale, in Sicily, built by William II. king of Sicily. The bronze door, which is richly ornamented with small figures in compartments, is the work of Bonanno Pisano, who completed it in 1186. Serradifalco, II Duomo di Mon- reale, &c. pp. 5 — 22, Plates i. to xiv. " This cathedral is the latest and most splendid of the works of the Norman kings of Sicily. Latin in its shape, Norman in its colonnade, Byzantine in 64 HENRY 11. its mosaics, Greek in its sculpture, Saracenic and Norman in many of its mouldings, features, and details, it exhibits a most curious combination of styles, and is one of tbe most splendid monuments of the middle ages." Gaily Knight's Normans in Sicily, p. 290. Pope LuciuS III. in a buU addressed tO the first archbishop of Monreale, dated 1182, mentions it as a work unriyalled since the days of the ancients. See also Q-ally Knight's Saracenic and Norman Remains in Sicily, Plates xxiv. and xxv. 1174. The Campanile^ or leaning tower of Pisa, Tuscany, built by Bonanno Pisano, and William of Inspruck. Under the first arcade, at the right side of the door, is the following inscription cut in stone, which records its foundation : a.d. MCLXXIV. CAMPANILE HOC FVIT FVNDATVM MENSE AVGVSTI. Ranieri Grassi, in his work Fabbriche Principali di Pisa, and particularly in his Descrizione Storica e Artistica di Pisa, part i. pp. 97 — 109, has fully proved, against the opinion of some modern writers, that its inclination is the result of a premeditated plan, and not the consequence of its foundations having sunk. This tower is covered with arcades of small semicircular arches, and has no appearance of the Pointed style. 1174 — 1189. Nave of Ely cathedral finished by bishop Geoffrey, called Ridal.

This tomb has a canopy supported by a Norman arcade richly ornamented, of late character, but without any trace of the pointed arch. 1176. The abbey church of St. Mary at Cirencester, Glou- cestershire, consecrated. "Eodem anno XVI. Kal.

Chron. Petriburg. Style — The nave is good Norman, corresponding very nearly with the choir and transepts, and evidently a continuation of the original plan. The billet- moulding is discontinued.

From records in the possession of Thomas Thistlethwaite, Esq., of South wick Park, Hampshire, it appears that about the first date John de Gisons granted to the church and canons of St. Mary of Southwick, a place to erect a chapel in honour of St. Thomas of Canterbury, on his land called Sudeweda, in the island of Portsea, containing thirteen perches in length and twelve in width. There is besides a charter of Richard Toclyve, bishop of Winchester, addressed to Godfrey, prior of Southwick, in which, among other things, he confirms to the priory the chapel of St. Thomas the 3fartj/r, which thej had begun to build, with the consent and advice of the said bishop, in their parish of Portsea.

St. Peter's church, Oxford; choir, with crypt, and part of the nave. We have no record of the date of this church, but on comparing the groined roof of the choir with the work of William of Sens at Canterbury, the resem- blance is so striking that there can be no doubt this is nearly of the same age : the plan of the vaulting is the same, and here also the pointed arch is used for the arch rib.

On the [first floor are two very long halls, reaching the entire length of the building, which have their original plain open timber roofs; the windows have early tracery, consisting chiefly of trefoils ; along the ridge of the roof is an elegant crest of open Gothic work.

The Chronicon Petriburgense alludes probably to that fall under the year 1237, where it says : " Ruina ecclesiae Lincolniensis, propter artificii insolen- tiam." 88 HENRY III. 1342. Prior Thomas de Melsonby began the new fabric of the cathedral of Durham, the bishop Nicholas of Farnham, and the church of Bedlington, contributing thereto. Hist. Dunelm. Scriptores Tres, p. 41. To what part of the building the words novam fahricam of the text refer, is not precisely known. Godwin, in his Catalogue of the English Bishops, p. 5 1 9, mentions only that bishop Nicholas, " together with Thomas Melscomb, prior, covered the cathedral with a new roof the yeere 1 242." The vault of the nave, however, and the chapel of the nine altars, appear of this date. 1244. St. Bartholomew's hospital, without the town of Sand- wich, Kent, founded, or more probably rebuilt and enlarged, by sir Henry de Sandwich. Hasted's History of Kent, vol. iv. p. 270, The chapel is beautiful Early English work, and contains the tomb of sir Henry with his figure in ring armour. 1245. King Henry III. ordered the east end, the tower, and the transepts of Westminster abbey church, to be taken down, and rebuilt on a larger scale and in a more elegant form, at his own expense. "Eodem vero anno dominus rex, devotione, quam habuit adversus sanctum Aeduardum, submonente, eccle- siam sancti Petri Westmonasteriensem jussit ampliari: et dirutis antiquis cum turri muris partis orientalis, prsecepit novos, vide- licet decentiores, suis sumptibus, subtilibus artificibus convo- catis, construi, et residuo, videlicet occidentali, operi coaptari." Matth. Paris. Hist., p. 661. The rebuilding of Westminster abbey church, as far as it was prosecuted in the reign of Henry III., may be easily distinguished from the parts erected at a subsequent period. It consists of Edward the Confessor's chapel, the side aisles and chapels, the choir (to somewhat lower than sir Isaac Newton's monument), and the transepts. The four pillars of the present choir, which have brass fillets, appear to finish Henry's work ; the conclusion of which is also marked by a striped chalky stone which forms the roof.

De Caumont, Hist. Sommaiie de I'Archi- tect., p. 167. Style — Early Pointed: the windows have foliated circles in their heads. 1346. The hospital of St, John the Baptist at Glastonbury, in Somersetshire, rebuilt by Michael, abbot of Glastonbury. Monasticon, vol. vi. p. 773. 1247. The monument of bishop Robert Bingham in Salisbury cathedral. He died in this year, but the monument may be a few years later. It is Early English, but late in the style ; has an elegant ogee canopy, with small figures of angels in the place of crockets, terminated by a good bold finial : the inner arch of this canopy is foliated with a peculiar sort of engrailed work, which occurs occasionally in other examples, as in the sedilia of Haseley church, Oxfordshire. This canopy also has a hollow moulding filled with the ball-flower ornament. Ornamented Moulding, vol. ii. PI. 85. Finial, vol. iii. PI. 33. 1248.

The cathedral of Clermont, in France, begun, from the design of John des Champs (a Campis). The works were car- ried on till about 1270, but very little has been done since to bring them to completion, with the exception of the transept, which appears to be of the 14th century.

The tower, however, and the windows at the end of the chancel, were constructed in the 17th century from the designs of Francois Romain, a friar of that convent, and the architect of the Pont Royal at Paris. De Jonghe, Belgium Dominicanum, p. 30 ; and Schayes's Treatise on the Pointed Style in Belgium, in Weale's Quarterly Papers, vol. i. p. 65. Style — Early Pointed. The design of this fine church is very remarkable: it consists of one large room without aisles, with a lofty pointed ceiling of boards on wooden arches of very wide span, and well moulded ribs ; the buttresses are very bold, with vaulting-shafts up the inner edges, and chapels between them, there are arches across from buttress to buttress, the soffits of which form the vaults of the chapels. At the west end are three fine windows with foliated circles in the head ; these are blocked up and most of the side windows de- stroyed, ^but the shell of the building is perfect. 1250 — 1260. The north transept of York cathedral, built by John Remain, treasurer of the church. Godwin's Catal. of the Engl. Bishops, p. 470 ; Monasticon, vol. vi. p. 1175 ; and Britton's History of York Cathedral, p. 30. Style — Early English, with foliated circles in the spandrels of the triforium. 1250 — 1280. Newenham abbey church, in Devonshire, built. Walter Bronescombe, bishop of Exeter, contributed greatly to the completion of it. Monasticon, vol. v. p. 690; and Davidson's History of Newenham Abbey. There are very few remains, but the east end of the chancel, and some other fragments, sufficiently attest that the style was pure Early English. HENRY III. 91 1250, vel circa.

Brompton cburchj near Chesterfield, in Derbyshire, consecrated by Brendon, bishop of Ardfert, acting for Roger de Weseham, bishop of Lichfield and Coventry. The date* was recorded in an inscription existing on the walls of the church itself in 1787, as Pegge (Sylloge, p. 67.) states, but since destroyed or defaced. There are still parts remaining of this date. 1254 — 1260. The monument of bishop Hugh de Northwold in the south aisle of Ely cathedral. Bentham's Hist, of Ely Cath.' p. 148. PL XV.

Norwich cathedral and monastery, which had been set on fire and partly destroyed by the riotous citizens in 1272, were restored and re-edified by bishop Roger de Skerning, who died in January, 1278 ; and the works being completed, the cathedral was, in the same year (1278), re-consecrated by his 96 EDWARD I. successor William de Middleton^ in the presence of king Edward I.^ and many of his nobles. Matth. Paris. Hist., p. 679 ; Annal. Norw. Angl. Sacr., torn. i. p. 401 ; and Monasticon, vol. iv. pp. 2,4,5. The part of the cathedral which appears to have been built at this time, is the vaulting, the walls being still the original Norman work. St. Ethelbert's gate- house is also of this period, and a very interesting specimen of the style of Edward I. The walls are ornamented with stone panelling in geometrical forms, and the interstices filled with cut flints ; which has a very good and striking eff"ect. This fashion prevailed in the east of England, and is occasionally met with in some other parts. Cross on Gable, vol. iii. PI. 27. Window, vol. iii. PI. 39. 1275 — 1290.

This Kobert de Champeigne is mentioned as witness to a charter of Edward I., dated tertio die Decembris anno regni Regis Edioardi filii Regis Henrici tertii, i. e. 1275 (Monasticon, vol. vi. 216, 217); and Margaret de Campania, his wife, is recorded (ibid. p. 822) as having, about the same time, given to the Knights Templars elemosinam in Huninghmn (Warwickshire) xii. d : which renders very improbable Mr. Burton's assertion that they were living in the 10th of Edward III., viz., 62 years afterwards. For architectural particulars and engravings, see T. L. Walker's Account of this Church in Weale's Quarterly Papers, vol. i. 1275 — 1291. The monument of king Henry III. in "West- minster abbey. See Gough's Sepulchral Monum., p. 57, plates xx. to xxii. By comparing the style of this monument, and particularly of the effigy, with that of the monument and effigy of Eleanor, queen of Edward I., which authentic documents, lately brought to light, have proved to be the work of Master William Torel, probably an Italian, it may be fairly inferred that they are both by the same artist. It is, however, clear that it was not the work of Pietro Cavallini as generally believed, for at the time it was finished, that artist * From Pegge's Sylloge, p. 35. EDWARD I. 97 could not have been more than twelve years old. Cavallini died, aged 85, in 1364. See T. H. Turner's Introduction to the "Manners and Household Expenses of England the 13th and 15th centuries," pp. Ixxxi. and Ixxxii. Round the verge of the altar-tomh is an inscription in French, embossed in beautiful Saxon characters ; of which the following three lines are a specimen. 1375 — 1327. The transept and choir of the abbey church of Bee, in Normandy, which had been so damaged by the fall of the great tower, that " totum presbyterium in circuito opportuit radicitus evellere usque ad fundamenta," were anew begun, in 1375, on a larger scale, by abbot Peter de Camba, under the direction of Robert de Fonte, and completed by his successors in 1327. Chron. Beccense, pp. 219, 222, and Neustria Pia, pp. 464, 466. This church, of which Ducarel, who saw it in its perfection, says that it was one of the finest gothic structures in France, is now entirely destroyed with the exception of a few ruined arches of the east end, one of the side chapels, and the tower, which appears, however, to be not earlier than the beginning of the 17th century. For an account of the remains of the conventual building, see Dawson Turner's Tour in Normandy, vol. ii. p. 106. 1376, vel circa.

Dorchester church, in Oxfordshire. The precise date of the erection of this fine church is not known, but its style of architecture, the armorial bearings painted in the windows, and the form of their shields, shew that it must have been about this period. Amongst the arms are those of king Edward I. and queen Eleanor; of Edmund earl 100 EDWARD I. of Cornwall, the earl of Lancaster, and most of tbe principal barons of that time.

Ixxxii., speaking of Torel, says : " It is not impossible that he may have been identical with master William the Florentine painter, who, as we have already seen, was employed by Henry the Third, towards the latter end of his reign." William the Florentine, about the same period, filled the post of master of the works at Guildford. Style — Early Decorated, with geometrical tracery, pyramidal canopies with bold crockets, trefoiled arches, &c. For engravings, see Blore's Monumental Remains, and Gough's Sepulchral Monuments, vol. i. 1391 — 1394. Queen Eleanor monumental crosses. From the accounts of the executors of queen Eleanor, printed, from the original MS., in 1841, for the Eoxburge Club, by Beriah Botfield, Esq., it appears that the whole of these celebrated crosses were executed and erected between these two dates. They were nine in number, viz., at Lincoln, Nor- thampton, Stony Stratford, Woburn, Dunstable, St. Alban's, Waltham, Cheap and Charing in London. That of Geddington, which has been generally con- 102 EDWARD I. siderecl as one of them, is not recorded in the roll. Of the nine therein men- tioned the two following only are now standing.

The groined vault of the choir of St. George^s chapel, Windsor, constructed. John Hylmer and William Vertue, freemasons, agreed by indenture dated June 5, 1507, to construct this vaulting for 700/., and to complete it by Christ- mas, 1508 : it appears, however, that part of the works were not finished in 1519, when a subscription among the Knights of the Garter was entered into to defray the expense of their completion. Style — Late Perpendicular, with fan-tracery. 1508 — 1515. The stone vaulting of King's college chapel, at Cambridge, with its exterior towers, turrets, finials, &c., built by Henry VII. and his executors.

Thornbury castle, Gloucestershire, built by Ed- ward Stafford, duke of Buckingham, as appears from an inscrip- tion over the entrance gate, but left incomplete at his death in 1522, in which state it still remains. The walls are for the most part in a perfect state, but without a roof, which appears never to have been put on. It is a fine specimen of the baronial man- sions of that age, built for magnificent display rather than for defence. See the frontispiece to this volume, and a chimney, vol. ii. PI. 33.

The monument of abbot William Malvern, alias Parker, on the north side of the choir of Gloucester cathedral, erected by himself during his life-time, but in which his body was never interred. William Parker, the last abbot of the great monastery of St. Peter at Glou- cester, was elected in 1515, and continued in office until the dissolution of the monasteries, in 1539, soon after which he died. He built a vestry at the end of the north transept of his church, the present cathedral. Style — Late Perpendicular. The mouldings of this tomb are exactly the same as those of the paneling and vault of the choir, and it is evidently part of the same work: probably he completed what his predecessors had begun. 1516 — 1519. The monument of king Henry VII. and his queen, in his chapel at Westminster abbey church, executed by Pietro Torrigiani, a Plorentine sculptor, for which he received a thousand pounds.

" Pounton church has a very large fair tower steeple, strong and very well lay'd ; built, as the inhabitants have received by tradition, by one Ellys, mer- chant of the staple at Calais ; Avho, as they also report, built Basingthorpe-hall, Swinshead-hall, Holland ; and the hall at Pounton. Mr. Ellys, the builder, is re- ported to have sent his wife a cask inscribed ' Calais Sand,' without any further mention of its contents : at his return to Pounton, he asked what she had done with it, and found she had put it in the cellar. He then acquainted her that it contained the bulk of his riches ; with which (being issueless) they mutually agreed to build a church, in thanksgiving to God for having prospered them in trade. The arms of Ellys, and the motto Thynke and Thanke God for ALL, are carved in various parts of the tower." Style — Good Perpendicular, though Very late. 152 HENRY VIII. 1520.

" Over the arch of the entrance porch are the royal arms of England, beneath a crown, supported by a greyhound and giiffin, and on each side is a rose and crown in panels." These are the arms of Henry VII., but were also used by Henry VIII. during part of his reign. The chimney shafts are variously ornamented, and the gables have good barge-boards. 1520, vel circa.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PLATES, FROM BRITTON'S DICTIONARY OF ARCHITECTURE, ALTERED AND ADAPTED TO SUIT THE PLAN OF THIS WORK. Arcades — Plate I. 1 and 6. Castle Acre priory clmrch, Norfolk, 1135 — 1148. 2. St. Peter's, Northampton ; exterior wall of clerestory. 3, 4, and 10. Canterbury cathedral, exterior of St. Anselm's tower, 1106—1114. 5 and 7. Norwich cathedral, 1096—1119. 8 and 12. Canterbury cathedral, 1175 — 1184. 9. St. Peter's church, Oxford, exterior of chancel, circa 1180. 11. Connington church, Huntingdonshire, font, circa 1200. 13. Lincoln cathedral, chapter-house, circa 1200. 1. From the west end externally, in which the soffit of the arch-moulding is cut into zig-zag as well as the face of the same, (6). The cable string-course (a) is strongly marked, as are the capitals. 2. Here the face of the arch is flat and plain, and the capitals, bases, and shafts regular and nearly uniform. Five small semicircular-headed windows are formed in so many panels of this arcade, on each side of the church. This building may be referred to as exhibiting some very interesting examples of capitals, columns, arches, and other ornaments of the Anglo-Norman times. — See Britton's Architectural Antiq,, vol. ii. p. 13, where a plan, views, details, and description of this building are given. 3. The first two specimens exhibit examples of the zig-zag archivolt-mould- ing, springing from very bold imposts: the arches are of small span, while the wall is adorned with varied ornaments. No. 10. shews the intersecting mould- ing, with a billet-ornament ; also a semicircular arch of three faces within the lancet arch. Three examples of the string-course are also shewn, the zig-zag, the indented, or saw-tooth (A), and the quatrefoil within circles {g). PLATE I. 5. From the open gallery in the interior of the tower is part of the work of Bishop Herbert de Losinga, in the reign of King William I. The clustered column or pier with semi-columns is here seen. No. 7. from the clerestory of the east side of the north transept of the same church has a singular column, the shaft of which is cut to imitate the scales of fish ; the archivolt has a range of billets in a deep hollow moulding. 8. From the south transept; 12. from the north-east transept: they exhibit the mixture of the semicircular and the pointed styles. 9. Is another specimen of the intersecting arcade, with a curious foliated column. — See Britton's Arch. Ant., vol. iv. p. 94, for an engraving of part of the chancel of this church. 11. Is one of the simplest specimens, though a bad one, of the intersected pointed arch. 13. In which the capital is adorned with the trefoil leaf: the archivolt- mouldings are bold and numerous, and a string-course is continued between the capitals. See Piigin's Specimens of Gothic Architecture for an account of this building, by E. J. Willson. Arcades — Plate II. 1 and 5. Canterbury cathedral : tomb of Archbishop Theo- bald in Trinity chapelj circa 1200. 2, 6 and 7. Salisbury cathedral, 1218—1258. 3j 8 and 9. Beverley minster, clerestory of nave, circa 1260. 4. Lincoln cathedral, triforium of nave, 1195 — 1256. 1. The columns are slender, with clumsy disproportioned bases, and the spandrels are filled with foliage. The archbishop died in 1161, and this tomb is said to have been erected to his memory soon afterwards ; the style however will hardly allow it to be considered earlier than 1200. 5. A specimen of the pointed trefoil-headed arcade is from the interior of the chapter-house, Canterbury, built between 1260 and 1280, and repaired or partly rebuilt in 1304. The spandrels are occupied by diaper-work. A series of these arcades forming seats, extends along both sides of the chapter-house. 2, 6 and 7. Are from Salisbury cathedral, which was begun by Richard Poore, Bishop of Sarum, about 1218, and completed by Bishop Giles de Bridport, 1258. — No. 2. is from the triforium of the choir ; No. 6. from that of the nave ; and No. 7. is one of the arched recesses, or seats in the interior of the chapter-house, which was probably built about 1260. The arches here exhibit a number of mouldings, the inner one of which is turned in cinque- foils, and springs from shafts with foliated capitals and well-moulded bases. No. 6. is a specimen of the open arcade, wherein four small arches are em- braced by a sweeping archivolt-moulding with the spandrels pierced by a quatrefoil and a cinquefoil. No. 7. is remarkable for a display of elaborate PLATE II. sculpture on the wall above the arcade, and for a series of busts or bracket- heads, which are curious for their diversity of forms, characters, and ex- pression. 3. A very acute arch, springing from slender columns, with capitals of numerous mouldings, and the inner archivolt decorated with the ball-flower is from the clerestory of the nave. The numerous mouldings of the caps, and the use of the ball-flower ornament in a hollow moulding up the sides of the arch, shew this specimen to be fast approaching to the Decorated style. No. 8. is a trefoil-headed arcade, composed of a number of plain mouldings, having sculptured busts at the junction of the label-mouldings. No. 9. is from the triforium of the nave, and is similar in form to No, 8, but with this variety, that each trefoil-headed arch has under and behind it a dwarf column, whence the halves of two pointed arches spring. 4. Aff"ords an example of the triplicated arcade of two smaller arches under a larger ; the tympanum of the former is pierced by a quatrefoil. In that cathedral are many varieties of the open and panelled arcades of singular beauty and interest. Arcades — Plate III. Interlaced Mouldings. 1.

Glastonbury abbey,north side of St. Joseph's chapel,c. 1180. 1. Is formed in a plain rude manner, with thin bricks apparently of Roman manufacture, the wall behind which consists of brick and rubble ; here is neither column nor moulding. It may however have been rebuilt in the twelfth century. — Arch. Antiq., vol. i. p. 2, for illustrations, and an account of this very interesting and unique fragment of a church. 2. Beneath the windows on the south side and other parts of the walls, con- temporary with this decoration, was a series of pointed arches, which separated PLATE III. the nave from the aisles of the church. Similar pointed arches are seen under the tower of St. John's church, Devizes, in the same county, the belfry walls of which are decorated with the interlaced arcade-mouldings, delineated No. 4. In this example, we perceive that one semicircular moulding intersects four others, and thereby forms three lancet arches. 3. From which fine edifice there are many interesting and genuine members of Anglo-Norman Architecture, illustrating the style and forms that were employed at the end of the eleventh century, when a large part of the building was erected by Herbert de liosinga, bishop of the see. Its tower, semicircular chapels near the east end, and apsis of the choir, afford good examples of Norman design, but from the character of the capitals, this particular portion is probably of a somewhat later period. 5. Which was founded by the first Earl Warren and Surrey, is rather an un- common example, the moulding of the arch mitres and joins the upright mullion, which is of corresponding form. — See Britten's Arch. Antiq., vol. iii. p. 21, for plan, illustrations, history and description of this ruined priory. The ground-plan shews the forms and situations of several of the monastic apartments. 6. Erected by Kobert Fitzharding. The cable-moulding as well as cabled column prevail ; a bead ornament is also inserted in a hollow moulding, both in the arch and in the ribs of the vaulting. Perhaps there is not a more interesting example of an Anglo-Norman chapter-room than that at Bristol. 7. Interlaced mouldings, forming an arcade of singular character on the north side. In this building we find the architect giving latitude to his fancy, in distributing various mouldings, as well as several capitals and ornaments, over the surface of the wall. The chapter-room, like that of Bristol, was of parallelo- gramic form. — See Bntlon's Arch. Antiq., vol. iv. p. 34. 8. In this church there are four varieties of arcades, in which, as in No. 5, the mouldings are very large in comparison to those at Malmsbury and Devizes. Bee Britton's Arch. Antiq., vol. iv. 12. It shews the intersecting mouldings, with a diamond ornament, and a semicircular moulding within the lancet arch.

Is a unique example of the union of the semicircular and pointed inter- secting mouldings in which three varieties of the arch are displayed. It is in the western wall, where there is a small circular window of unusual character. 14.

Antiq., vol. v. p. 160 ; also for description, Eickman, p. 265 — 9. Arches of similar construction and material are found in the Jewry wall, Leicester, and in the ruined church and pharos within the outer ballium of Dover castle. 2. The work of Herbert de Losinga. The archivolt is composed of several round and hollow mouldings, with the billet-ornament on the label-moulding. Nearly the whole of Norwich cathedral is of the same style and date. 3. An arch of the horse-shoe form : this crypt is certainly the largest and finest substructure of this class in England. — See Plates 28 and 29. PLATE IV. 4. A semicircular arch, stilted, and slightly horse-shoed, springing from a cord above the impost. There are many other arches of the same form. 5. Is a fine specimen of the true elliptical arch, which is now so generally adopted in bridges, and which is supposed of modern invention. 6 and 10. A great part of this church is evidently of Transition character. For one of the windows, see vol. ii. Plate 149. It is a fine and interesting specimen of Anglo-Norman architecture. Its arches and arcades are numerous and various, including the semicircular, the horse-shoe, the lancet and obtuse pointed, the flat, &c. No. 6. is from the clerestory of the nave, and displays some eccentric combinations of arches and columns. The intrados and extrados of one series are insulated, and form arch-buttresses. No. 10, the arch-mouldings of a doorway on the north side of the nave, where the two sides of the arch are almost straight, meeting in an obtuse point. The capitals are elaborate, and the hollow mouldings filled with an ornament, which was generally employed at this period. 8. This example shews the combination of two pointed arches in the door- way, covered by a semicircular archivolt of several mouldings mitering with those of two blank arches of the acute lancet shape. 11 and 17. No. 17 is a singular example of the arch-buttress or arc-boutant, formed by a mass of masonry disposed as two arches, one above the other, and the points of the two mitering into each other. The spandrels are formed by several mouldings vdth circular apertures. This design was apparently adopted by the architect to support the weight of the lofty and heavy tower on the four tall arches which separate the nave, choir, and transepts of the building. There is a similar contrivance at Canterbury. 15 and 18. The first in the nave, and the latter covering an ornamental niche raised by Bishop Beauchamp. The curve of the latter is struck from six centres, as indicated in the engraving, but in all probability it was originally formed by the hand. No. 15. is struck from four. Bishop Beauchamp was made " master and surveyor of the works" in 1470. 19 and 21. Are diagrams shewing the mode of drawing the arch by hand. No. 20, the timber roof of Crosby hall, London, is an interesting specimen of the carved work with pendants and fine corbels, which adorned the baronial halls of our ancient mansions.

This magnificent edifice contains a series of work of almost every style and date in its buildings or smaller portions. It is a cross church, with a massive tower in the centre, and has had the various adjacent buildings of the monastery, of which only a gate-house remains. The tower, transepts, and some parts of the nave are Norman, of a plain bold character. — Rickman. 3. The remains of this abbey consist of the nave of the church, which has a Norman west end. There are also other Norman portions, but mixed with the later styles. There seems good ground to suppose that the earliest parts of this building are the work of Eoger bishop of Salisbury, 1107—1142, but there are additions and alterations of various periods, so that it is difficult to affix a date to any particular portion. 4, 5, and 6. Are varieties of arches from the same crypt, one of which. No. 6, shews the pointed arch of the same construction and style as the circular arch, and all evidently of as early date as 1184, when the Trinity chapel was erected. The form of this arch was regulated by the intercolumniation and height required to make it range with the others ; it is struck from two centres above the impost. The next arch (J) is slightly pointed, whilst (e) is semicir- cular and of wider span. 7. Adorned with the embattled fret, and with the columns and capitals fan- cifully ornamented. 8. This is called by Mr. Britton a double arch ; and he observes that it resembles many doorways in the churches of Normandy. It may also be frequently met with in England, as at Dorchester church, Oxfordshire : it generally indicates that the work is rather late Norman. 9. This arch is slightly horse-shoed, generally a mark of Transition, or of very late Norman. This and the other arches, with the walls, &c. of the church, are peculiarly solid and substantial. 10. With zig-zag and dove-tailed embattled mouldings. A similar arch remains in the conventual church at Ely. Arches — Plate VI. 1. Walsoken church, Norfolk, circa 1180. 2.

Choir of Canterbury cathedral which was in progress in 1180, under the direction of William of Sens, as recorded by Gervase of Canterbury. The apsis of L'Abbaye aux Hommes at Caen, is very similar in columns, arches, &c. 5. Salisbury cathedral was built by Bishop Poore, between 1218 and 1258. 6. The nave of Lincoln cathedral was rebuilt between 1195 and 1256 by Bishops Hugh and Grosteste, about the same time as the nave of Salisbury cathedral. The capitals of the columns are foliated, the mouldings are not so numerous nor is the height of the arch so great as at Salisbury, 7. The nave of York was commenced in 1291 and completed in 1330. The arches are highly pointed, but the mouldings are low and flat in comparison with the two preceding examples, the boldness of the Early English style being lost in the Decorated. 8. The choir of Chichester cathedral was erected by Bishop Neville about 1230. 9. Is another variety of the ogee arch, with its pediment, &c. 10. The nave of Canterbury cathedral was erected by Prior Chillenden, assisted by Archbishops Courtney and Arundel, between 1391 and 1411. 11. This part of King's college was built in the reign of Henry VI. Arches — Plate VII. 1. Elkstone church, Gloucestershire, circa 1150. 2. Avington church, Berkshire, circa 1150. 1. Is one of the most ancient buildings in this county, though its external appearance does not promise so much, having been considerably altered in the reign of Richard II. when the tower was built. Indeed little of its original architecture remains on the outside except a fascia running round the upper part of the nave, below which are a variety of grotesque heads and figures, and a round-headed window at the east end of the chancel, ornamented with an embattled fret. The south door is rich Norman ; over it is the figure of our Saviour sitting on a throne, with His right hand extended, and holding a book PLATE VII. in His left ; over His head is the figure of a hand pointing downwards, and round Him are the holy Lamb, and symbols of the Evangelists, all carved in basso relievo. This group of figures is surrounded by a semicircular arch of grotesque heads and zig-zag mouldings, which are very similar to those round the south door of Siddington church in this county. The appearance of the chancel is very singular, the arches not being correctly circular, but exhibiting great irregularity, part of which has no doubt been occasioned by its decay. The columns and pilasters supporting the arches lean outward several inches beyond the perpendicular. The roof is very low, being not more than twelve feet in height, though on the outside it appears much higher than the nave, having a room built over it, the approach to which is by a narrow staircase on the north side. 2. This building remains nearly in its original state ; it is small, and quite plain on the outside ; within the walls it measures 75 feet by 14 feet 7 inches. The nave is separated from the chancel by an arch richly ornamented with zig-zag moulding, and a great variety of grotesque heads springing from two enriched piers, which lean outwards, and this appears to have been their origi- nal position, since the outside walls are upright. The arch is remarkable, being formed of the segments of two circles having difi"erent centres. The chancel appears to have had originally a groined roof of stone, the lower part of some of the groins remain, which are enriched with roses. At the east end are three small round-headed windows. — Lysons' Mag. Brit., Berts, p. 204. — The font in this church is Norman ; it is round, very large, and sculptured with figures under Norman arches. Bases — Plates VIII. and IX. I, 2, 4, 5, 6, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18.

The age of this crypt has been much disputed, but there appears little reason to doubt that it is part of the edifice commenced from the foundation PLATE VIII. by Bishop Walkelyn in 1079, completed in 1093, and dedicated on St. Swithen's day in that year. 8. Caster church, Northamptonshire. The central tower is profusely orna- mented on the exterior surface, and may be regarded as unique in England. Almost every variety of moulding and ornament of Anglo-Noiman architecture are displayed on this edifice. The corbel-table with grotesque heads, the nebule, the billet, the spiral column, the doubled column, the torus, the flat and even zig-zag arch-mouldings are all employed, whilst the wall itself is adorned with the trowel and the scaly facing. With open arches, and con- tinued arcades all round, the two upper stories of the tower present a highly enriched effect. The lower story is however quite plain, whilst the summit is crowned with an octagonal spire rising within a perforated and em- battled parapet : both spire and parapet are comparatively modern. Other parts of this church, as well as the tower, are peculiarly interesting to the archi- tectural antiquary. Beneath the tower, and partly supporting four semicir- cular arches, are three half columns attached to each pier, with regular capitals and bases. The capitals are ornamented with foliage and figures, among which are representations of two men fighting with clubs and shields, also dogs, a boar, deer, &c. Over the south door of the chancel is a stone fonning a sort of lintel, but cut into a trefoil head, inscribed with these letters : XV KL MAI DeDICATIO HVI CCLC— AD. MCXXIII. which is read by Gibson XV— KL— MAII— DEDIGATIO HVI' ECCLE. A.D. M.C.XXIII. All the letters excepting XXIII. are raised on the face of the tablet, whilst these are cut into it. On the south side, near the west end, is a porch with a pointed arched entrance, over which is a basso- relievo of a bust of our Saviour within an ornamented frame. The doorway between this porch and the church has two small columns on each side with sculptured bases and capitals re- sembling those beneath the tower ; and the door itself is adorned with carving, and inscription in these letters : f Ricaedus Baby Hectoris ecclesia de castra' fe. The chancel has been partly rebuilt, and has three tall lancet- shaped windows on the north side, also a square niche and piscina in the same wall, and there are two pointed arched piscinas in the opposite wall. The church consists of a nave and aisles, with two circular columns between on each side, a chancel, a tower in the centre, and a transept. In the absence of all historical information respecting the age, &c. of this church, we may pretty safely refer its erection to the date above quoted, i. e. 1123, the 10th and 11th of Henry I. — There is an engraving of this tower in Britton's Archi- tectural Antiquities, vol. v. pi. 15.

The building consisted of a circular wall, which was originally perforated with six semicircular-headed windows, and an ornamented doorway of the same shape. The latter is still very perfect and apparently in the original style of decoration. Within the outer wall is a circular colonnade of eight columns ; these are short and massy, without any base, and with a narrow ornamented capital, which varies in different columns : eight semicircular arches spring from these besides some groined mouldings, which tend to support the vault of the sur- rounding aisle : some of these ribs are indented with the zig-zag ornament. Above these arches is a continued arcade, consisting of two small semicircular arches beneath one archivault, immediately over the lower arch, and between each of the two arches is a large short column, the diameter of which is nearly equal to its height, and two small three-quarter columns or shafts attached to it. 11. St. Stephen's chapel, Westminster, was erected in the reign of Edward III. between 1329 and 1360. The whole edifice appears from its remaining parts, and from the views and descriptions of it made public, to have been an ela- borate and splendid example of the architecture of the fourteenth century. An ecclesiastical edifice was founded here in the time of King Stephen, but it was refounded and endowed by Edward III. After the Reformation, this royal establishment having reverted to the crown, was granted by Edward VI. to the Commons of England for their sessions or sittings, and for that purpose it was ever used until destroyed by fire in 1840. The subject of the sculpture on this boss is evidently the stoning of St. Stephen. For an elaborate account of this very interesting structure, the glory of its age, and the rival of La Sainte Chapelle, in Paris, see Mr. Mackenzie's accurate and valuable account of it.

King Henry I. is said to have erected the original chapel within the precincts of Windsor castle, for eight canons, and to PLATE XI. have dedicated it to King Edward the Confessor. This was afterwards either rebuilt or enlarged by Henry III., who, in 1243, issued a commission to Walter de Gray, archbishop of York, to expedite the work by keeping the labourers constantly employed both in winter and summer till the whole was completed. A part of the building then erected is presumed to be now re- maining, as a series of closed arches, of the style of that age, is seen on the south side of the dean's cloisters, and some others, with a rich door, remain against the wall behind the altar at the east end of the present chapel. 8, 10, 11, 12.

In an architectural point of view, this building may be esteemed a curiosity of some moment, as there is reason to suppose that it exhibits one of the earliest and most uniform examples of the " mixed style," now remaining in England. The roof was probably vaulted throughout, as the chancel cer- tainly was, for the corbels remaining in the centre of the north and south walls distinctly point out the direction of the groining. These corbels are very neatly worked and preserved quite perfect, as well as those which support the great arches under the tower on the east and west sides. There are several engravings of this interesting ruin in Britton's Arch. Ant., vol. iv. p. 50. 2. Is a large and very fine cross church, with a large and lofty tower at the intersection, containing one of the heaviest and finest peals of bells in the kingdom. A large portion of this church is Early English, of a character curious and valuable, with some parts and some insertions of later date. The details of many parts of this church were very good and in fine preservation, and the whole church is worthy of attentive examination. (Rickman.) The chancel has been restored, and the nave destroyed within the last few years. 6. Still retains many apartments and relics of its ancient monastic character, some remaining nearly in their former state, the most perfect of which is the PLATE XII. cloister. There is an engraving of these magnificent cloisters in Britton's Arch. Ant., vol. ii. p. 120. 7, 8. The contract for glazing the great eastern window is dated August 10th, 1405. 9. This church has a chancel of very great beauty, the east end particularly ; it is Early English, and the mouldings remarkably fine. The peculiar corbel supporting this bracket is called a Mask, and is more frequently used in the thirteenth and fourteenth centuries than at a later period. 10. This ought rather to be called a Pedestal than a Bracket. 13, 14. These two support vaulting shafts, and would therefore be more cor- rectly called Corbels than Brackets. 15. Crosby hall is situated on the eastern side of Bishopsgate-street, London, near St. Helen's church, and is so surrounded by houses as to be visible only on one spot, where it is entered by a flight of modern steps, projecting towards the passage leading to Crosby square. With two adjoining chambers it con- stitutes the only existing portion of Crosby place, so called from Sir John Crosby, by whom it was built, who was a citizen of great wealth and power in the reigns of Henry VI. and Edward IV. He obtained from the prioress of the neighbouring convent of St. Helen a lease of certain tenements for the term of ninety-nine years from 1466. These tenements he appears to have pulled down, and erected the mansion of Crosby place for his own residence. After his death it was occupied by Eichard duke of Gloucester during the period he acted as protector of the realm and the person of his unfortunate nephew Edward V, Here therefore most probably those plans were engen- dered, and those treacherous and bloody acts resolved upon, which eventually placed the diadem on the head of that bold usurper. In the hall, which is still standing, he received the address of the Lord Mayor and commonalty of the city, when they came at the instigation of Buckingham to urge him to accept the crown.

The architecture of these parts resembles that of Salisbury cathedral, exhibiting a plain simple style ; the plan is also similar, having a double transept : the roofs are also vaulted PLATE XIII. with stone, and the columns like those in that cathedral are neatly wrought with clustered shafts, and capitals composed of plain mouldings without foliage. The nave is more modern than the choir and transept, and the western front is the work of the fifteenth century, (e. j. wnison.) There are engravings of this beautiful church in Britton's Arch. Ant., vol. v. Plates 41—45. No. 9. is a large structure, and consists of a chancel, two aisles, and a chapel or chantrey on the south-east. This chapel appears to have been erected at the same time and by the same persons as that appended to St. John's church at Devizes. The frieze and cornice of the exterior are charged with roses, two chains, and various quarterings of arms, and at the ends of the mouldings around the windows are sculptured angels holding shields. The figure of an angel is also placed over the east window, supporting naked figures of chil- dren, and over the west window is a canopy similar to that at Devizes. The interior of this chapel is painted and embellished with gilt ornaments of diiferent kinds on a blue ground. From the number of nails fixed in the wall, it is conjectured that it was hung with funeral achievements; only two helmets, two flags, and part of a doublet and gloves remain.

The cornices are mostly filled with flowers and other enrichments, and the whole church forms a valuable study of the style. There are engravings of this beautiful tower and spire in Britton's Arch. Antiq., vol. iv. Plates 1 and 2. 5. In a manuscript memoir of the house of Douglass in Richard Augustine Hay's collections, preserved in the Advocate's Library at Edinburgh, is the following account of the first building of Eosslyn chapel, and of other works performed by William Saintclair, the magnificent earl of Orkney. " He builded the church walls of Eoslin, having rounds, with fair chambers and galleries thereon. He builded also the forework that looks to the north-east. He builded the bridge under the castle, and sundrie ofiice houses. In the PLATE XIV. south-east side thereof over against the chapell wall, he made plaine the rock on which the castle is builded for the more strength thereof, and he planted a very fair orchard. But his age creeping on him made him con- sider how he had spent his time past, and how to spend that which was to come. Therefore to the end he might not seem altogether unthankful to God for the benefices received from Him, it came in his minde to build a house for God's service of most curious work, the which that it might be done with greater glory and splendour, he caused artificers to be brought from other regions and forraigne kingdomes, and caused dayly to be abundance of all kinde of workmen present, as masons, carpenters, smiths, barrowmen, and quarriers, with others ; for it is remembered, that for the space of 34 years before, he never wanted great numbers of such workmen. The fundation of this rare worke he caused to be laid in the year of our Lord, 1446. And to the end the worke might be more rare, first he caused the draughts to be drawn upon Eastland boards, and made the carpenters to carve them, according to the draughts thereon, and then gave them for patterns to the masons, that they might thereby cut the like in stone, and because he thought the masons had not a convenient place to lodge in near the place where he builded this curious colledge, for the towne then stood half a mile from the place where it now stands, to witt at Bilsdon burne, therefore he made them to build the town of Eosline, that is now extant, and gave every one of them a house and lands answerable thereunto. So that this town all that time by reason of the great concourse of people that had recourse unto the prince, (for it is remembered of him that he entertained all his tenants that were any way impoverishd and made serve all the poore that came to his gates, so that he spent yearly upon such as came to beg att his gates 120 quarters of meale) became very populous and had in it abundance of victualls, so that it was thought to be the chiefest towne in all Lothian except Edinburgh and Hadingtone. He rewarded the masons according to their degree; as to the master masone he gave £40 yearly, and to every one of the rest he gave £10, and accordingly did he re- ward the others, as the smiths and the carpenters with others." The chapel was not completed during the life of the founder, who died in 1479 ; but his successors made some additions to the building, and to the establishment. The sacristy, vestry, or subterraneous oratory east of the chapel, was founded by his lady, " Dame Elizabeth Douglass." Some addi- tions to the original endowment were made in 1522, by William St. Clair, of Kosslyn. The establishment here was intended to be a college for a provost, six prebendaries, and two singing boys ; and the collegiate chapel was cer- tainly designed to be much larger than it appears at present. There are fourteen plates of this curious chapel in Britton's Arch. Antiq., vol. iii. p. 63, &c. 7. Erroneously called St. Mary's on the plate— A. the arch, or flying-but- tress ; — i.

This is Norman below and Perpendicular above : the gateway, with its arch -mouldings, the shafts and arches in the passage, and the details, is one of the most elaborate specimens of Norman work, and the preservation of its original sharpness, of all the most minute carved detail, is one of the best tests of the value of the oolite in which it is executed. The age of this building has been much disputed; Mr. Britton puts it down at 1140, but no one who has ex- amined this building can doubt that it is late Norman and Transition work, with a superstructure of the fifteenth century ; the use of the tooth ornament shewn in the plate proves that it must have been very late in the Norman style. 4 to 8.

The latter has an abacus taking the sweep or form of the column, with rich foliated sculp- ture beneath it.

The three first stones of this cathedral were laid with great ceremony in 1093, by Bishop William de Carileph, Malcolm, king of Scotland, and Turgot the prior, a man of great learning and fame, and eventually bishop of St. Andrew's. Before the death of Flambard in 1129, the nave with its aisles PLATE XVIII. was finished up to its vault or roof. The original wooden roof of the nave was removed, and the present groining of stone substituted in its stead, by Thomas Melsonby, who was prior from 1233 to 1244, and who evinced considerable taste in associating the architecture of his period with that of a century before his time.

In 1174 this church was partly destroyed by fire, of which a particular account is given by Gervase, who witnessed it. To renovate the edifice both French and English architects were consulted, and the plan of William of Sens (Senonensis) being most approved, he was entrusted with the work. He began the new parts in 1175 ; his improvements were interrupted in 1178 by his falling from a scaffold fifty feet high. William Anglus, or the Englishman, was appointed to succeed him, and he proceeded to raise the vault to the north and south parts of the transept, and completed the east end of the choir. Trinity chapel, and the round tower, called Becket's crown, from its foundation. This work he is said to have completed in 1184. In 1220 the chapel and altar, which had been consecrated to the Holy Trinity, were dedicated to St. Thomas the Martyr, whose relics were removed thither.

Norman gable-crosses are of rare occurrence, having generally suflered so much from the weather as to have lost all character, or have been renewed in a different style. The example from Than church, Normandy, (fig. 9.) is perhaps better known in this country from the numerous engravings of it, than any English examples ; these are however to be found at St. Germain's cathedral, Cornwall, over the porch ; and at St. Margaret's church, York, is one built into the wall of the vestry, but preserving its form. The other example from PLATE XXVII. Than church (No. 10), in this plate, has evidently been renewed, being of much later character. Early English gable-crosses are found in abundance, and of a variety of forms, as will be observed by comparing Nos. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 16, 17, 18, 19 : and the diversity of crosses in this style might be shewn to an almost endless extent, yet nearly all of them are remarkable for beauty and elegance. In the Decorated style the gable-crosses are frequently more clumsy than the Early English, as that at the east end of Merton College chapel, Oxford (No. 7), and this sort of wheel form is more prevalent, in some instances it is carved to represent the crown of thorns hanging on the cross. The example from St. Mary's church, Gloucester, No. 15, having the Virgin and Child sur- rounded by a sort of open quatrefoil, is very singular, and is the only example of the kind that has been noticed. Perpendicular gable-crosses are frequently well moulded, and of good forms, as on the transept of Merton College chapel (No. 8), which preserves the figure of the Latin cross more distinct than is usual in the earlier styles ; they are not unfrequently in this style quite plain or merely chamfered, but numerous rich examples are also found in which the form is disguised, as at King's College chapel, (No. 12).

Foundation of a chapel on north side. The crypt of Canterbury cathedral is said to he " the largest, the finest, and the most interesting in England." The age of the older parts (which are dis- tinctly marked on the plan by being a darker colour than the rest, and B in Plate 29.) has been much disputed. Many persons still consider this crypt as the original work of Lanfranc, others as the work of Priors Ernulph and Con- rad, 1106 — 1114, under Archbishop Anselm, who is said to have expended nearly the whole of his revenues in rebuilding his cathedral. Considering that the choir had been so recently erected by Lanfranc (about 1080), it may seem singular that Anselm should have destroyed and rebuilt it ; but the historians of the church attest the fact, and Gervase, who minutely describes the " glorious choir of Conrad," lived too near the time to be likely to be mistaken as to a fact of this nature. It is probable that his object was to enlarge the church, which made it necessary to pull down the original structure. It is, however, by no means clear that the crypt was rebuilt along with the super- structure. The eastern part of the crypt (marked on the plan by a lighter tint, and A in Plate 29), extending under those parts of the church, the choir and Becket's crown, which are known to have been built by William of Sens and his sue- PLATES XXVIII AND XXIX. cessor, between 1175 and 1184, are so evidently part of the same work that there can he no doubt they are of the same age. The difference between these two crypts will be very clearly seen by refer- ence to Plate 29, and they may serve as a useful guide to the distinctive cha- racter of early and late Norman work. The latter being the earliest instance that has hitherto been authenticated in this country of the transition to the pointed style. It will be observed that the groining and section of the pillars in the south transept (marked G on the plan), is quite different from the rest of the crypt; while all the rest is of the comparatively plain and massive Norman style, this transept is of rich Decorated work ; this is in consequence of Edward the Black Prince having founded a chantry chapel here, which he endowed with the manor of Vauxhall, near London. Among the ornaments at the inter- section of the ribs is a shield with the arms of the founder, who died at Can- terbury in 1376. Plates XXX., XXXL, and XXXII.— Doorways. XXX. — 1.

Dedicated to St. Mary-the- Virgin, and in its present state is about 69 ft. long, including the nave and chancel, but very little of it so ancient as the south entrance doorway, which is surmounted with a very fine semicircular arch, with zig-zag mouldings, and other ornaments. In the centre of this are three half-length figures; that in the centre, Christ with His left hand resting on a book, and His right hand as if in the act of benediction, with I.H.S. on one side ; the other figures, two angels with clasped hands. On the right of the doorway are two figures resembling monkeys climbing a tree, and the pillars are curiously ornamented in spiral lines. 5. The semicircular space in the head of the doorway was frequently the seat of the most impressive representations. At Barfreston, as at Rochester and many other places, Christ is enthroned within a cloud, with reference to the 21st chapter of St. Luke; for a cloud has been so formed in painting and sculpture from the fourth century ; the right hand is elevated, with the fingers conformed as usual when giving the benediction ; the other is placed upon a book, supported by the left knee: this book, when open, as here and at Rochester, has written upon its leaves, " Pax vobis — Ego sum via, Veritas, et vita," or similar sentences from the Scriptures. Thus seated in Majesty, and supported by angels, the figure is surrounded with foliage, deduced as it PLATE XXX. appears from the lily, whose scrolling leaves enclose several regal or other heads. Above, in the outward circuit of the architrave, is a figure with elevated hands ; the archiepiscopal pallium is dependant from the neck, with a low mitre, or tiara, upon the head, denoting the highest spiritual authority : the usual representation of the Ancient of Days, the first Person of the Trinity: no other could be deemed worthy of this higher situation. With reference to the more ancient indications of this mystery, the token of the Third Person is not seen, or if it was ever placed about the architrave it has been removed. Britton's Archit.

It is chiefly composed of freestone, interspersed with very curious decorations of flint-work : around it, and on every side, are the arms of some noble person- ages, benefactors to this building. The roof of it is carved, and as well wrought as perhaps the skill of the artist could delineate, and there are two pews not yet wholly defaced, whose carved work may be said to vie with that of Henry Vllth's chapel. The whole length of the church is 156 feet 6 inches, and its breadth 68 feet. The steeple, admirable both for its strength and beauty, is 141 feet high and 42 in diameter, and contains six bells. The founder of this building is not exactly attested, but that the De Veres, earls of Oxford, and the Spring family, opulent clothiers in this town, were the principal founders, is clear from the arms so variously dispersed around it. The porch is elegant and highly enriched, and in it are six shields all within garters : it is supposed to have been erected by John fourteenth earl of Oxford, who died in 1529. There is much stained glass in the windows with the arms of the De Veres and others. Oent. Mag., May, 1787. Plate XXXIV.— Fonts. 1. East Meon church, Hampshire, circa 1150. 2.

These two are of lead on stone bases ; the pillars supporting No. 7 appear to be original, but the base of No. 9 is of the fifteenth century. 10. This celebrated font is mentioned by Camden in his Britannia, and is described by bishop Littleton in the second volume of the Archseologia. On one side is an inscription in Kunic and Saxon characters, which Hickes, bishop Littleton, and many other antiquaries, read as commemorating the conversion of Ekard, a Danish general, and several of his countrymen. Mr. Hamper, in vol. xix. of the Archseologia, gives a very different interpretation, by stating that it means, " Richard he me wrought ; And to this forme me diligently brought."

These two compartments are at the east end of Iffley church; the one marked B is part of the original structure, and is late Norman work, as is shewn by the section of the rib B ; the other is an addition a few years later : it is not clear whether the original plan was ever completed and this compart- ment added on subsequently, or the plan changed during the progress of the work, but it is evidently of later character than the rest, and the section of the rib A is clearly Early English. The windows of this part are lancet shaped. 3. The foundation of this cathedral was laid in 1117, and the nave was con- secrated in 114.3. The window is evidently an insertion of much later date. PLATES XXXV, XXXVI, and XXXVII. 7. We have no precise account when this portion of Wells cathedral was built, but in 1325 an indulgence of forty days was granted to those who con- tributed to the 7ieio ivork then in progress, which is supposed to refer to this part. PLATE XXXVI. — York cathedral^ chapter-house^ 1255 — 1270. " This ceiling is represented as seen in a mirror. The date of the erection of this magnificent building cannot be accurately ascertained from any records now remaining. It is generally ascribed to archbishop Walter Gray, as a figure in the window over the entrance corresponds with the representation of that prelate on his tomb ; and the arms of several of his contemporaries are painted in some of the other windows. The style corresponds with this age, Early English rather late in the style, with foliated circles in the head of the windows." " The vaulted roof is of wood, and was until lately adorned with paintings and gilding ; some large panels are yet preserved that were taken from it at the repair : it is now plastered and coloured like stone. The piers and windows have also been washed of a plain stone colour. The stalls and entrance are suffered to retain the faded indications of their ancient splendour." PLATE XXXVII.

The height of this elegant spire is 195 feet ; there is a tradition that it was built by cardinal Wolsey, but it appears to be evidently the work of an earlier age, possibly rebuilt or repaired by him. 16.
