Good day in our parish church of St. Stephan!
The patron saint of our church, which probably is one of the oldest and most beautiful buildings of Amstetten, leads us - as in all Stephan parishes - to Passau. Beginning of the 11th Century founded the bishops of Passau here a large parish, from which in the course of history many of the surrounding parishes emerged.
From the architectural history of the Gothic church (Staffelkirche - multi-aisled church building) we know:
To a Romanesque building which in its dimensions comprised about today's nave and possessed a smaller choir in the 14th Century initially a chapel has been added. It was already at that time consecrated to Our Lady of Sorrows and is now the front part of the northern aisle, where the Marian altar stands. The next phase of construction was the newbuilding of the nave together with the north aisle. The tower whose lower part certainly stems from the predecessor building, since then stood freely added to the west side of the church. In the south it was only built up as the aisle was raised. Around 1450 it was decided to build up the tower in the north, too - so today's baptistery was built. The reconstruction of the church was completed by a late Gothic choir, dominating the nave by a few meters. To the new choir connects in extension of the southern aisle the sacristy. The tower, which was 1787-89 increased and provided with a Baroque helmet, received in 1882 its present neo-Gothic form. Its height up to the pommel of the Cross is 43 m.
Of the equipment of the church the altars, neo-Gothic carvings are remarkable. The high altar is from the South Tyrolean artist Franz Schmalzl from Ortisei, who designed it in 1898 and set it up in 1901: In the middle shrine one sees the martyrdom of St. Stephen, left the statues of Sts. Peter, Lawrence and above John the Baptist, right Sts. Florian, Paul and John the Evangelist above it . Above the shrine the Sts. Joachim (left) and Anna (right) are to see between them is the late Gothic statue of St. Maria, at the very top the Holy Josef is shown. The arrangement of the figures of saints coincides with that of the previous Baroque altar that the from Innsbruck stemming, here domiciled carpenter Thomas Obererlacher had built in 1679. From this altar have been preserved the statues of Sts. Peter, Paul and Joseph (at the columns in the nave), and of St. Lawrence (under the choir).
The side altars 1889 Josef Kepplinger from Ottenheim has designed and realized: In May 1889, the Lady altar in the left aisle with the statue of St. Mary of Lourdes, flanked by angels, including the figures of Sts. John of Nepomuk (left) and Rocco (right), at the very top a statue of Christ, could be consecrated. At the right side altar, who received its consecration in February 1891, the Sacred Heart of Jesus statue is at the center, the side figures represent the Sts. Christopher and Thomas (left ) and Sebastian and Nicholas (right).
The people's altar (Volksaltar) is from the former high altar of the parish church of St. Georgen i. d. Klaus, manufactured in 1886 by Josef Unterberger from Gmunden .
The wood sculpture "Christ on the Column of flagellation" in a niche in the pointed arch next to the right side altar dates from the 17th Century.
In remarkable images has got our Church: The "Assumption of St. Nicholas" by Bartolomeo Altomonte, signed in 1732 (in the sanctuary left), the "Fourteen Holy Helpers", by Johann Georg Staindorffer, painted in 1680, and the "Trinity picture" from the Baroque high altar (in the sanctuary right). The Stations of the Cross, the painter of Seitenstetten Anton August Stern has painted in the years 1869-1872, which it has, like the signature on the 14th Station proves, modeled after the Führich Stations of the Cross in St. John Nepomuk Church in Vienna.
Since the exterior renovation in 1975, the beautiful grave stones, until then exposed outdoors to any kind of weather conditions, in the Church and in the baptistery have been set up. Among them is also that of Andreas of Lappitz www.wehrbauten.at/noe/niederoesterreich.html?/noe/leiben/....
The old organ is the work of Ottenheimer master Leopold Breinbauer, who in 1898 built it into the baroque housing of the 1763 by Lorenz Franz Richter of Freistadt constructed old organ. It has 2 manuals, 20 stops and 1387 pipes. Since 2011 the church has a new virtual organ whose console is set up in the sanctuary. It has 4 manuals and can the organs of Haverhill (GB), Zwolle (NL) and Caen (F) reproduce.
Finally, taking a look at the baptistery next to the tower is worthwhile. The 12-sided baptismal font dates from the 15th century. The neo-gothic attachment, designed by the same master as the side altars, houses a representation of the Holy Trinity. The half reliefs show biblical scenes of salvation from the water. On the inside of the attachment wings Ludwig Hase from Linz has painted two biblical baptisms. The frescoes vestiges on the walls and ceiling, set around 1480, indicate representations of the Gospels symbols, the Last Judgement, the souls in purgatory and parts of the Ursula Legend. The mural paintings are pointing to the original use as a mortuary chapel. The two modern concrete glass windows, created by Albert Birkle 1964, show the following motives: the sevenfold Outpourring of the Holy Spirit on the Church (in the North) and the lamb on the book with the seven seals (in the west).
In a canopy at the western exterior of the church the fresco "The Last Judgment" can be seen (around 1480).
Of the 4 bells with the notes C, E, G and A (Salve regina) dates the oldest one from 1728, cast by Silvius Creuz in Linz. The other three were produced in St. Florian 1957.

This stream valley leads to the Historic Entrance to Mammoth Cave, the longest known cave on Earth. As of March 2024, 426 miles of passages have been explored and mapped. The mouth of the cave is downhill, to the left.
Mammoth Cave park offers underground cave tours all year. Specific tour offerings change from season to season, year to year, and decade to decade. Most tours start at the visitor center and involve walking downhill to the Historic Entrance - the mouth of the cave. Other tours involve short bus rides to artificial entrances (e.g., New Entrance and Carmichael Entrance). Most cave tours fill up quickly. Advance reservations are recommended for any time of year. No entrance fee exists to enter or leave the park itself. Only the underground cave tours cost money. Tours usually have two rangers - one leading the group and one trailing the group. Back in the 1970s, the Historic Tour (2 miles, 2 hours) was self-guided. Intense levels of vandalism resulted in the cessation of self-guided cave tours at Mammoth Cave. One exception in modern times is the Discovery Tour, which permits tourists to enter the mouth of the Cave and explore to the Rotunda, Audubon Avenue, and Rafinesque Hall.
In early times, before the area was a park, two tours were offered - a half-day tour, and a full-day tour. Both involved areas that modern tourists cannot visit (e.g., Pensacola Avenue, Silliman Avenue, Pass of El Ghor, etc.).
Faith-filled learning environment leads to greater academic success, service to community, say supporters
By Ambria Hammel | Feb. 16, 2010 | The Catholic Sun
Catholic education doesn’t just help a student now. The full dividends play out over a lifetime.
That was the overarching theme students throughout the diocese celebratedduring Catholic Schools Week Jan. 31-Feb. 6. Students organized special activities, projects and dress-up days to honor the vital role a Catholic education plays.
“There’s more focus on God and religion, not just academics. I like that,” John Paul McCann, a fifth-grader at Blessed Pope John XXIII, said about his Catholic school experience. “I think it’d be good to have more people learn about God.”
Fr. Dan McBride, pastor of St. Mary’s Parish in Chandler and a St. Jerome School alumnus, concelebrated a special Mass at his alma mater Feb. 4. Six other priests, active and retired, joined him.
“When we celebrate Catholic Schools Week, we celebrate our identity not just as students in a private school. We celebrate our Catholic identity. We know that to learn and to grow in faith are part and parcel; they go together,” Fr. McBride said.
Fr. McBride recalled his daily outlook at St. Jerome: “I was going to learn something I didn’t know and I was expected to do things I didn’t know I could do.”
Other Catholic school alumni visited various campuses throughout the diocese touting the dividends Catholic school provided.
“Catholic education taught me that it’s OK to ask questions and open doors and explore options,” said Vickie Jennett, communications coordinator for St. Timothy Parish in Mesa. She shared her testimony with seventh- and eighth-graders at the parish school Feb. 2.
Jennett — who has worked for a university, several newspapers and now the Church — spent 15 years in Catholic school and still appreciates its focus on faith, the family and discipline.
“I cannot tell you how important my vocation of wife and mother is to me,” said Jennett, whose children are both in their mid-to-late 20s.
Deacons, priests and sisters at various campuses shared their vocation stories with students too. Deacon Dick Petersen also spoke at St. Timothy School.
The Catholic school alum has spent more than one-third of his life in Catholic education — including medical school. He told students that, among other benefits, the prayer life fostered at Catholic schools gives students an advantage in life.
Today’s Catholic high school students already appreciate the strict discipline. Bourgade senior Michael Weikamp is among them. He has grown up in Catholic education and is grateful for so many life lessons.
Weikamp already plans to finance a Catholic education for his future family.
Adelyne Gomez, a seventh-grader at St. Louis the King School in Glendale, also finds value in her Catholic education.
“I know what’s right and what’s not right. I know that if I’m ever in trouble, I can pray to God and He’ll help me,” she said.
Parents of the diocese’s youngest students don’t take that for granted either. They repeatedly named prayer and faith on their list of the top 10 reasons to choose a Catholic education at Our Lady of Joy in Carefree. They unveiled the top 10 list in the parish bulletin during Catholic Schools Week.
Some schools celebrated the week with breakfasts, lunches and spirit rallies saluting public servants and civic leaders.
Fr. Patrick Mowrer, pastor of San Francisco de Asís School in Flagstaff, blessed and recognized a 2005 alumnus during a student Mass Feb. 3. Vincent Johnson, who said his school experience gave him purpose, is joining the Navy next week.
Community service
Other students saw Catholic Schools Week as a chance to do a community service project of their own.
High school students made rosaries, collected toiletry items for André House and organized a blood drive. Students at Seton Catholic Preparatory High School in Chandler raised $5,000 for St. Vincent de Paul.
Elementary school students held benefit drives for Maggie’s Place, servicemen and women and the Department of Public Safety. Several collected food for neighborhood outreach ministries.
The St. Vincent de Paul chapter at St. Benedict Parish in Phoenix benefited from the “Cans Across Campus” project at St. John Bosco Interparish School. Students donated canned goods, toiletries and other non-perishables. Some 550 of them paraded items across campus to the parish food closet.
The student council also brought wagons heaped with donations for eighth-graders to sort and stock.
Students at Annunciation Catholic School in Cave Creek donated money to the Poor Clare Sisters of Perpetual Adoration in Black Canyon City by paying to be “out of uniform” by sporting a hat.
Some of the sisters gave a vocations talk to the students Feb. 5. They gave a similar talk in several classrooms at Blessed Pope John XXIII School in Scottsdale earlier that week. They discussed their habits, hobbies and vows.
Priests throughout the diocese also shared their vocation stories with students at several campuses. A couple of priests said that simply praying, talking to priests and having good priest role models helped foster their vocations.
For Fr. Pat Robinson, that included a recap of his time at seminary. He addressed kindergarteners Feb. 2 at Blessed Pope John XXIII School. Wanting to expand their vocabulary, the teacher encouraged the boys and girls to put the word “vocations” in their head.
“I’m going to superglue it!” one young boy shouted.

There not many churches in east Kent that I have not been into.
I thought I had been into St Mary before, but looking at my shots from a visit some six years ago, I just reported that the church was locked and I posted no shots of the church.
This I found out once I was back home.
Anyway.
St Mary sits at the east end of the picturesque village square, partially hidden behind the White Horse, a wide path leads to the west door in the base of the tower.
It was unlocked on Saturday, so passing through the inner and outer door, into the vast and airy space of the nave and large side aisles, I was first stuck by the many large and extravagant memorials in both the side chapels and aisles.
At the west end of the village square sits Chilham "Castle", still a private residence, and the former owners of that house now rest for eternity in the church, under tombs of marble.
Lots of great details; medieval glass fragments, corbel stones.
A very fine church indeed.
------------------------------------------
This large sombre church stands just off the picturesque village square. Dating mainly from the fifteenth century, its interior was much restored in the Victorian period. The visitor today should spend time studying the stained glass and monuments which all commemorate the families associated with the village. In the north aisle is an excellent polished memorial to Sir Dudley Digges who lived in Chilham Castle in the early seventeenth century. It is made of Bethersden marble, and is similar in workmanship to many fireplaces in the castle. In the north chapel is a memorial to the Hardy children who died in 1858. It shows them reading a book with their toys around them. Originally made to stand in the castle it was presented to the church in 1919. The fine examples of stained glass in the north and south windows are also memorials to the Hardy family, designed by C.E. Kempe and Co. Ltd in 1914.

CHILHAM
LIES upon the river Stour, about six miles southward from Canterbury. It is called in Domesday, Cilleham; in Saxon, Cyleham; which signifies the cold place; and some think this place was antiently called Julham, or Juliham, i. e. the village or dwelling of Julius, in regard to Julius Cæsar, the Roman emperor, who had several conflicts with the Britons in and near it.
The Parish of Chilham is situated exceedingly pleasant, in a fine healthy part of the county, about six miles southward from Canterbury, and nine from Ashford, the high road leading through it, a little below which the river Stour runs along the eastern part of the parish, on which there is a corn mill, long known by the name of French Mill, belonging to Mr. Wildman, and on the height above it the noted mount of earth, usually called Julliberries grave. On an eminence, almost adjoining to the opposite or west side of the road, is the village, built mostly on the summit of the hill, round a small forstal, having the church and vicarage, a neat modern built house, on the north side of it, and the antient castle, with the stately mansion and park of Chilham. On the opposite side from which there is a most beautiful view over the spacious Ashford vale, through which the river Stour directs its course; a vale which comprehends within it a most beautiful scene, ornamented with seats, parks, towns, and churches, in the various parts of it, bounded by the majestic tower of Ashford church in front, the fine down hills, the summits of which are well cloathed with soliage on one side, and the extended range of Wye and Braborne downs on the other, all together forming a most rich and luxuriant prospect.
The parish is nearly circular, between three and four miles across. The ground in it is very unequal and hilly, the soil of the hills being mostly chalk, and the vales clay. There is some coppice wood in the south west part of it towards Molash, where it becomes, among the hills, which are bold and romantic, a barren and slinty country. About a mile northward from Chilham church is the common, or small heath, called Old Wives lees, over which the branch of the turnpike road goes which leads for the Ashford road abovementioned to Faversham. Near the lees is Lower Emsin, and adjoining the Blean woods. There are about one hundred and twenty houses, and seven hundred and twenty inhabitants in this parish.
The market mentioned to be granted below, has been disused time out of mind, and the fair on the Assumption has likewise been long disused, but there is one held here yearly on Nov. 8, for cattle, &c.
THE MANOR OF SELGRAVE in Faversham, having fallen to Sir Dudley Diggs, by escheat, and being also purchased by him of the heir of Sir Christopher Cleve, he, by a codicil to his will in 1638, devised it to charitable uses, ordering that it should be let to some tenant, who should pay over and above the quit-rents, twenty pounds per annum; and so soon as that sum should be raised, then that the lord of Faversham, or in his absence, the mayor, with the advice of four of the jurats, and the lord of Chilham, or in his absence, the vicar of Chilham, with the advice of four of the best freeholders, should chuse a young man, and a young maiden, of good conversation, between the ages of sixteen and twenty four; and these two young men and two young maidens, on the 19th of May yearly, should run a tye at Chilham, and the young man and young maid who should prevail, should each of them have ten pounds.
This running is still kept up; several young men and maids run at Old Wives-lees, in this parish, yearly on the first of May, and several others at Sheldwichlees on the Monday following, by way of trial; and the two which prevail at each of those places run for the above-mentioned ten pounds on Old Wives-lees, on the 19th of May, among a great concourse of the neighbouring gentry and inhabitants, who constantly assemble there on this occasion. (fn. 1) The late Mr. Heron, as lord of Chilham, endeavoured to put an end to this diversion, but found it out of his power.
¶CAMDEN says, it was the current opinion among the inhabitants, that Julius Cæsar encamped here in his second expedition against the Britons, and that thence this parish acquired its name of Julham, i e. Julius's station, or house; and if he mistook not, they had truth on their side. (fn. 2) Meaning this to be the place where Cæsar, in his Commentaries, says, that having marched about twelve miles he discovered the Britons, who were advanced to the banks of a river, and begin from a rising ground to oppose the Romans and give them battle; but being repulsed, they retired to a place fortisied both by art and nature in an extraordinary manner. Camden surely seems to be mistaken here; for this place is full sixteen statute miles in a direct line from Deal, which is nearly seventeen miles and a quarter by the Roman estimation; too great a difference, we must suppose, for Cæsar to be mistaken in. It is more probable, that this was the place where the Britons, the next day after the attack, which they under the command of Cassivelaun, had made on the Romans, immediately after Cæsar's return from fortifying his camp, had posted themselves, on the hills at some distance from the Roman camp, and harassed from thence their cavalry and attacked their foragers under C. Trebonius, rushing on them so suddenly from all parts, as even to fall in with the legions and their standards. If their post for this purpose was here, the spot of it must have been at Shillingheld wood, where there are large and extensive remains of strong fortifications and entrenchments, and where the Romans afterwards, from the works already made there, and the eligibility of its situation, placed one of their castra stativa, or more lasting encampments, to which probably the scite, where the antient castle of Chilham stands, might be an exploratory fort.
CHILHAM was of eminent account in the earliest times, and from its situation was most probably, in the time of the antient Britons, fortified, and held by them as a place of strength against the Romans, who had several encounters in and near it with them; and afterwards, when that nation had gained a more permanent footing in this island, was more strongly fortified by them, and made use of as one of their castra stativa, or more lasting encampments; and many Roman remains have been from time to time discovered in it, in the spot where the present mansion of the castle now stands, with the plain appearance of a much more antient building under the foundations of it. This appeared when Sir Dudley Digges pulled down the old mansion of Chilham, and dug the foundations deeper for the present house, when the basis of a much more antient building was discovered, and many culinary vessels of the Romans were found at a considerable depth. After the Romans had deserted Britain, the Saxon chiefs seem to have kept possession of it, and to have had a fortress or castle on or just by the scite of the present one; and in the time of the heptarchy, Widred, king of Kent, who reigned at the latter end of the 7th century, resided at it, and made it a place of much greater strength and defence; and Bede notices that the villæ regiæ of the Saxons were mostly placed upon or near the places where the Romans had before made their stations and principal fortified encampments. After which, as this kingdom made but an inconsiderable figure, historians have made little mention of the several princes who reigned, or their transactions in it, so that there is no following account of this place till the invasion of the Danes, who in one of their in cursions, probably in either the year 838 or 851, in both which they took and plundered Canterbury, sacked and demolished this castle, which seems after this to have remained desolate till the time of the Conqueror; though the scite and domains belonging to it appear by the record of Domesday to have been, in the reign of king Edward the Consessor, in the possession of Sired de Cilleham, a noble Saxon, who had large possessions in different parts of this county, and was in the battle of Hastings, on the side of king Harold, by which he forfeited this estate to the Conqueror, who soon afterwards granted it to his half-brother Odo, bishop of Baieux, under the general title of whose lands it is thus entered in the book of Domesday:
In Feleberge hundred, Fulbert holds of the bishop, Cilleham. It was taxed at five at five sulings. The arable land is twenty carucates. In demesue there are two carucats, and thirty eight villeins, with twelve corttages having twelve carucates. There is a church, and six mills and an half, of six pounds and eight shillings, and two fisheries of seventeen pence, and pasture of eighteen shillings and seven pance.
In Canterbury, city there are thirteen houses belonging to this manor, paying fifteen shillings, and nine acres of meadow. Wood sufficient for the pannage of twenty hogs.
In the time of king Edward the Confessor it was valued at forty pounds, and afterwards at thirty pounds and forty shillings. Sired held it of king Edward.
CHILHAM is within the Ecclesiastical Ju risdiction of the diocese of Canterbury, and deanry of Bridge.
The church, which is dedicated to St. Mary, is a handsome building, consisting of a body and two isles, all covered with lead, and a high chancel, with two chaples, one of which is dedicated to St. Anne, on the south side; there was a chantry on the north side, now pulled down, with a transept, all covered with tile. It has a tower steeple at the west end, on one corner of which is a beacon turret, which till of late was covered with a small spire. There are six bells and a clock in it. The steeple was built about the year 1534, as appears by a legacy towards the building of it. In the chancel is a monument for Margaret, sister of Sir D. Digges, wife of Sir Anthony Palmer, K. B. obt. 1619. He lies buried here, within the altar-rails, obt. 1630. A memorial for Anne St. Leger, mother of Sir D. Diggs, obt. 1636, and several memorials for the Fogges. In the body of the church are memorials for the Cumberlands, Paynes, Cobbes, Belkes, and Bates; in the north transept, for Masters, Petits, Spracklyns, and Cobbe; and in the south one for Dixon. There were formerly in the windows the arms of Ensing and Thawyts, as has been already mentioned, and of Ross and Honywood. In the chapel on the south side of the chancel, probably that of St. Anne, is the burial vault built by Sir Dudley Diggs, for himself and family, and referred to by his will, in it many of this family lie buried; and in the chapel is a monument for Mary Kempe, lady Digges, wife of Sir Dudley, with her genealogy and that of Digges, and another for Sir D. Digges himself, 1638; and on the north side, probably where the old chantry above-mentioned was, is a circular mausoleum, with a cupola at top, built by the Colebrooke family for their use.
The church of Chilham was antiently an appendage appurtenant to the honor and manor of Chilham; but so early as the reign of king Stephen it was separated from it, and in the possession of William de Ipre, who in 1153 gave it to the priory of Throwley, which was confirmed by king Stephen that year. (fn. 18)
This religious house was an alien priory, established as a cell to the Benedictine abbey of St. Bertin, the capital of Artois, in Flanders, from whence a certain number of monks, who were mostly foreigners, and removeable at pleasure, were sent over, with a prior at their head, who were little more than stewards to their superior abbey, to which they returned the revenues of their possessions annually; for which reason, during the wars with France, as their revenues went to support the king's enemies, these kind of houses were generally seized, and restored again upon the return of peace.
¶In the 8th year of king Richard II. this church of Chilham was valued at forty pounds, at which time it was become appropriated to this cell, and a vicarage was endowed in it. In which situation both parsonage and vicarage remained till the general suppression of the alien priories throughout England, in the 2d year of Henry V. when this of Throwley was, among others, suppressed, and it seems to have remained in the hands of the crown till king Henry VI. in his 22nd year, settled it on the monastery of Sion, founded by his father. With which this church and vicarage continued till the general suppression of religious houses, this of Sion being one of those greater monasteries dissolved by the act of 31 Henry VIII. by which all such, together with their possessions, were given to the king. This parsonage and vicarage thus coming into the hands of the crown, the king in his 32d year, granted the rectory of Chilham, together with the chapel of Molash, and the advowson of the vicarage of the church of Chilham, with all their appurtenances, together with the manor of Chilham, to Sir Thomas Chene, in manner as has been already mentioned; (fn. 19) whose only son and heir Henry, lord Cheney, of Tuddington, in the 3d year of queen Elizabeth levied a fine of all his lands, and soon afterwards seems to have alienated a moiety of the parsonage of Chilham, with all the tithes and emoluments belonging to it, arising on the east of the high road leading from Godmersham, through Chilham town to Faversham; and they are now the property of the Rev. Sir John Fagg, bart. The great tithes of the chapel and parish of Molash seem to have been alienated by him at the same time, as will be further mentioned hereafter; but the other moiety and remainder of the parsonage of Chilham, with all the tithes arising in the parish, on the other or west side of the above-mentioned high road, together with the advowson of the vicarage of Chilham, with the appendant chapel of Molash, was alienated by him, together with the honor and castle, in the 10th year of queen Elizabeth, to Sir Thomas Kempe, since which they have passed together in manner as has been more fully mentioned before, in a like succession of ownership down to Thomas Wildman, esq. the present possessor of this part of the parsonage, and parton likewise of the advowson of the church of Chilham.
The vicarage of Chilham, with the chapel of Molash, is valued in the king's books at 13l. 6s. 8d. and the yearly tenths at 1l. 6s. 8d. In 1578 here were communications three hundred and fifty nine. In 1640 it was valued at eighty-nine pounds. Communicants three hundred and seventy-seven. It is now worth two hundred pounds per annum.
IT HAS BEEN mentioned, that there was A CHANTRY on the north side of this church. It was endowed with twenty-two acres of land, as appears by the roll in the Augmentation-office, of 30 Henry VIII. This chantry was dissolved by the act of the 1st year of king Edward VI. The last incumbent of it, John Castelyn, was living anno 1553, and had then a pension of six pounds. (fn. 20)
By the survey of chantries in the above office, taken in the 2d year of king Edward VI. it appears that Robert Pell gave a house and garden in Chilhæn, on condition that the stipendiary priest there should live in it.
There was in 1349 A CHAPEL in the castle of Chilliam, called the free chapel of the blessed Virgin Mary, of which Margery, lady Roos, daughter of Bartholomew, lord Badlesmere, and widow of William, lord Roos de Hamlake, was patroness, and accordingly that year, at her presentation, the see of Canterbury being then vacant, one Osbertus was admitted by the prior and chapter of Christ-church, personally to serve as a perpetual chaplain in it.

Listing Text
584/6/40 EAST HILL
24-FEB-50 (South side)
CHURCH OF ST JAMES AND ST PAUL
(Formerly listed as:
EAST HILL
CHURCH OF ST JAMES)
II*
DATES OF MAIN PHASES/ NAMES OF ARCHITECTS:
C13-C15, with earlier origins; restored 1870-71 by SS Tenlon.
MATERIALS:
Flint and septaria rubble, partly faced with knapped flint. The tower has some Roman brick. Stone dressings. Roofs are tile and lead.
PLAN:
Nave with N and S aisles, N porch and W tower. Chancel with N and S chapels and N vestry.
EXTERIOR:
The church is the largest in Colchester, and stands on a hill, forming an important local landmark. The early C16 chancel is faced externally with knapped flints, and has a moulded plinth and buttresses with flush flintwork. The large perpendicular E window was partially blocked in the post-medieval period and heavily restored in the C19. The C16 N vestry is much lower than the N chapel and sits below a window. Both the N chapel and the N vestry have parapets ornamented with quatrefoil diapering embellished with carved flowers.
The nave and aisles have plain parapets. The nave clerestory was rebuilt in a Perpendicular style in the C19, as was the N aisle and N porch. The S door is also C19 in a C15 style, and the S aisle has heavily restored C15 windows. A partial C14 string course below the eastern windows of the S aisle is probably the remains of the S wall of a former S transept or shorter aisle.
The W tower is embattled and has brick quoins. The second stage has restored C13 windows of a single pointed light, with restored C14 two light windows in the upper, bell stage. There is a SE stair turret. The small, shingled spire was added in the C19, replacing an earlier, probably C18 lantern.
INTERIOR:
The interior is painted and plastered with exposed timber roofs. The early C15 chancel arch is very tall and wide and has a rood beam with figures. The tall 2-bay chancel N and S arcades have moulded outer arches and inner arches on attached shafts with moulded capitals and bases, forming a lozenge shape. A further arch on each side at the E end has a window. Below the N window is an Easter sepulchre, and there is a sedilia in the dropped sill of the S window. The roofs of the N and S chancel chapels are C16 and have curved braces. That on the N has probably C17 or early C18 repairs with the arms of the See of London. That on the S has the symbols of the Evangelists.
The tall, narrow tower arch has continuous mouldings and was entirely rebuilt in the C19. The arches from the aisles into the chancel chapels are C13 material reset in the C15, and may indicate the presence of former transepts that preceded the present aisles and chapels. The nave N and S arcades are of 4 bays and several periods, beginning with the two eastern bays on the S of the late C13 or early C14, then the matching bays on the N of the early C14, followed by the western two on the S of the early C15 and the corresponding bays on the N of the later C15. The earlier parts of the arcade were also partly remodelled in the C15. The Roman brick NW corner of the earlier unaisled nave is visible in the N aisle. The tower stair turret is accessed via a door at the W end of the S aisle. The nave and aisle roofs were rebuilt in the C19, but the N aisle roof has reused C15 brackets.
PRINCIPAL FIXTURES:
The church was reordered in the 1950s. Chancel piscina, C16 piscina in N chapel and a C14 piscina in S chapel. The chancel, S chapel and S aisle have sedilia formed by dropping the sills of windows. Statue bracket in S chapel, with a supporting angel. S chapel screen 1899-1900 by T J Jackson in a delicate Art and Crafts perpendicular style. Oak pulpit by H and K Mabbit, 1951. Glass of 1843 by Warrington in the S chapel.
Monuments: some good monuments, including brasses to John Maynarde, d.1569 and Alys his wife, d. 1584, the later a palimpsest on an older, draped figure. Wall tablet to Thomas Reynolds, d.1665 and his wife Margery, d. 1649. large standing wall monument to Arthur Winsley, d. 1727 with a semi-reclining figure in Augustan mode.
HISTORY:
The church of St James was first mentioned in the mid C13, but the architectural evidence suggests that it is considerably earlier. In the C13 it was held briefly by Coggeshall priory and later by St Botolph's before passing to the Audley family after the Dissolution. The NW corner of the long nave survives and has Roman brick, suggesting a C12 or earlier origin for the church. The long nave and possible transepts also hint at the presence of a pre-Conquest structure below the present building, but this cannot be confirmed. The tower was added in the C13, and also in the C13 the eastern bays of the S arcade were built. The arches into the chancel chapels also reuse C13 material, perhaps from former transepts. The eastern part of the N aisle was built in the early C14 and both aisles were reworked and extended in the C15. There were anchorites associated with the church in the C12 and C13, and in the later middle ages, it had an active parish life with several guilds that had altars within the church. The chancel was rebuilt in the early C16, and its chapels and vestry are contemporary. Little is known of work carried out on the church in the post-medieval period, but the tower was `decayed¿ in 1633 and the small lantern shown on it in early prints may have been C17 or C18. The advowson was in the hands of the Bishop of London in the early C18, which may provide a date of the repairs to the N chapel roof. The church had fallen into disrepair by the middle of the C19 and was heavily restored and partially rebuilt in 1870-1 to designs by S S Teulon (1812-73), a well known church architect. Samuel Sanders Teulon (1812-73), was a well-known and active church architect who worked primarily for Low Church clients. His work is often made striking by the use of structural polychromy and exotic architectural details. From the end of the C19 it has been a focus of high church worship in Colchester. There were further minor alterations in the late C19 and some reordering in the mid C20. A new vestry ('very horrible' Pevsner) was added on the S by Duncan W Clark in 1953.

REASONS FOR DESIGNATION
The church of St James and St Paul, East Hill, Colchester should be designated at Grade II* for the following principal reasons:
* Fine, multi-phase medieval church, heavily restored in the C19.
* Excellent C16 chancel, chancel chapels and N vestry with fine flint flushwork detailing and excellent work inside including C16 roofs to both N and S chancel chapels.
* Nave with arcades of the C13-C15, preserving evidence for a large, possibly cruciform, early church.
* Good landmark value.

Peter Pan leads Chaloner at Stonehenge Works. Peter pan, 0-4-0ST by Ker Stuart & Co of Stoke on Trent No 4256 of 1922. A standard “Wren” class, built for Devon County Council, Beacon Down Quarry, Parracombe, Devon. Chaloner, 0-4-0VBT, De Winton vertical boilered engine built in 1877. Worked at the Penybryn quarry until 1881 then Penyrorsedd until 1960. Purchased by Alfred Fisher and transferred to Leighton Buzzard in 1968. Fitted with a new cab for the Leighton Buzzard gala which it is understood the locomotive was originally supplied with. Everyone thought that the earliest photo of 'Chaloner' dated from 1927, taken at Pen-yr-Orsedd quarry where it spent most of its working life. But while the engine was on display inside the former De Winton works, enthusiast Brian Hurst came through the door with a bombshell – a copy of the original 1877 works photo, which he owned. It revealed it had a cab! Yet there was no record that any of these locos ever had cabs. This was a totally unknown feature, which completely changed the locomotive’s appearance. 'Chaloner' is known to have been supplied originally to the Penybryn quarry, Nantlle, but this ceased operations in 1888, and the equipment was sold off. The auction catalogue made reference to a 'hooded locomotive steam engine', which was generally believed to be 'Chaloner', but the Industrial Railway Society handbook for the area simply says that: 'This term... is not now understood'. With the benefit of the works photo, the meaning of the description has become clear, over 120 years after the event. Photographed on 16th September 2012 during the “Great Slate Quarry Fest” which took place over both days. This involved nine engines in steam, including the De Winton “Chaloner” returning to its original 1877 appearance with a cab and three visiting Quarry Hunslets “Jack Lane”, “Statfold” and “Edward Sholto”.
Leighton Buzzard Railway was opened in 1919 to transport sand and was built mostly from surplus materials and equipment from the First World War battlefield supply lines. It was built to 2 foot (610mm) gauge and was just over 3.5 miles long. The line served numerous quarries along its length either via sidings or linking to internal quarry networks. The original steam locomotives used lasted less than 2 years, being replaced in 1921 with ex-WDLR armoured “Simplex” petrol locomotives. In the 1960’s road competition started reducing traffic with the last quarry railway closing in 1981. By then a group of railway enthusiasts had started running weekend passenger trains starting in 1967.

Matt Koehl leads a celebration of Germany’s Third Reich leader Adolph Hitler’s birthday by about 20 American Nazis in an Arlington motel April 23, 1978. Hitler was actually born on April 20th.
Fearful of public reaction, the Nazis conducted their remembrance in secret.
Koehl’s group, the National Socialist White People’s Party, was marking what would have been the 89th birthday of Hitler. Koehl was also commander of the World Union of National Socialists.

BNSF “25th Anniversary” ES44AC #6179 leads solo with an empty coal train from CSX (with an SD70ACE DPU on the rear) amidst the pouring on and off rain! I got somewhat soaked but it was worth it lol!
I had been eyeing this unit’s return trip ever since it came east two days before as a DPU the same day I caught 6017 (another 25th unit) trailing on Z-STPCHC. I was hoping 6179 would make its return trip on Thursday of that week as that was the last day of summertime freedom before school started on Friday (of all damn days lol). Come Thursday morning when I arrive at Main Street to on and off rainstorms, I learned that 6179 had passed Bangor, MI on the CSX Grand Rapids Sub at like 2 or 3am but this time leading! I then traced it to see if it was even in Illinois and sure enough it was traversing the surrounding area south of Cicero! I ultimately started thinking of when it’s run down the racetrack could be and I assumed it would be in the mid to late afternoon depending on how many crews were available and how it wouldn’t be the first time that a coal train that arrives at Western Avenue or Cicero would have to wait an eternity to get moving.
Well fast forward towards the end of rush hour and I decided to trace 6179 to see if it made it to Cicero and when I did, it came up as “Departed Cicero”. This meant that a crew was actually available and he could be in DG at any minute!
Around 8 or so minutes later, I saw a headlight to the east but if you zoom in on the photo here you’ll notice a second set of lights meaning there was gonna be a major problem of who will get here first. Luckily this other train (that being Q-CHCTAC) ended up getting stopped on Main 2 due to it being occupied so 6179 was able to highball through on Main 1 making this my 5th 25th unit to catch! Halfway there!
Also! Here’s a list of the 25th units I’ve seen so far as of this photo being taken! There are also links listed to photos of the units I’ve posted on here as well!
1. 5872 (leading but backlit to all hell lol)

2. 6111 (leading with much better lighting)
[Not posted]
3. 5869 (leading with an MRL to boot as well)
