Liverpool Cathedral.
North Choir Aisle - Rose Window, c1911.
Designed by John William Brown (1842-1928).
Made by James Powell & Sons, Whitefriars.
Detail.
The images in the rose window relate to "journeys across the sea and undertaken in faith", namely Moses crossing the Red Sea, Saint Paul's journey to Rome, Saint Columba planting a cross on Iona, and missionaries of the Melanesian Mission landing on the Solomon Islands.
John William Brown was born in Newcastle upon Tyne and trained as an artist under William Bell Scott, a friend of William Morris. He was employed by Morris & Co and later by James Powell & Sons before he became a freelance designer. He continued to undertake commissions for Powell's up to 1923, but in the later part of his career most of his work was carried out for Henry Holiday.
James Powell & Sons, situated on the site of the former Whitefriars monastery, between the Thames and Fleet Street, was producing mainly flint glass when it was bought in 1834 by James Powell, a London wine merchant. On his death the firm passed to his three sons Arthur, Nathaniel and James Cotton Powell, who in 1844 established a stained glass department. The latter benefitted from the scientific researches of Charles Winston, a lawyer by profession, who had dedicated himself to the study of medieval stained glass. It had made him aware of the shortcomings of the glass available to contemporary artists, this being often thin and garish in colour. In 1847 he encouraged experiments aimed at rediscovering the chemical components of medieval glass and persuaded the firm of James Powell & Sons to produce 'antique' glass to his recipes. It was mainly due to this collaboration that the firm was to become one of the most important studios and glass manufacturers of the Victorian period.
Liverpool Cathedral is orientated north-south, and the cardinal directions given here refer to the liturgical orientation.

Parramatta, c1911. View east down the Parramatta River to the Rydalmere Hospital for the Insane. This institution was built in 1813 as the Protestant Girls School to a design inspired by Elizabeth Macquarie's childhood home "Airds" in Scotland. In the 1860s it became an orphanage for both boys and girls. In 1888 it was converted into a wing of the Parramatta Lunatic Asylum and was gazetted as a standalone institution in 1892. Today it is the Parramatta Campus of Western Sydney University.

Pears Vintage 510pc Tempted But Shy by GG Kilburne, from 1910 Annual, torn box lid references Mrs Pell.
Top Left: Owner Jen Schorman has replaced two pieces (above the mirror & top edge). In good general condition apart from two discoloured pieces near the right edge (possibly older replacements) and what seems to be a long gouge in the wood to the right of the mother's head. Push-fit with extensive line-cutting.
Only a fragment of an older box remains (which might be the original). The small white label attached to the box lid is a Harrods (?Films) Saver, P 9/34 Mrs Pell, Wilburton Manor, Ely.
The large white label with blue ink handwriting describes the jigsaw, giving dimensions and a description and notes that it is complete in March 1947. There is a 'scraped' portrait of a woman in the card surface below the label - a lovely feature. This label sits over another label which might relate to a former Harrods box use, or possibly an earlier label of the jigsaw.
Lower Right: The same area of the image from a vintage American jigsaw. This was cut by GW Fiss Jnr of Philadelphia, c1911, and is in the Strong Museum of Play, which holds Anne Williams's jigsaw collection.

Wilburton Manor.
A Gothic country house now a school built 1848-1851 to the designs of AWN Pugin and built by George Myers.

Wilburton Manor was built for the Pell family as the ‘New Manor’ to distinguish it from the old Elizabethan manor house, Burystead, located in the village. According to Pevsner the house was constructed 'without the supervision of the architect'. However, it appears that Pugin was in Wilburton on 24 August 1848 at which time he may well have discussed the design with the Pells. As noted in the listing application, George Myers then wrote that "I ... hereby agree to erect a house at Wilburton for the Honorable Lady Pell according to the plans and specifications and to the entire satisfaction of A. W. Pugin the Architect, for the sum of two thousand four hundred and seventy five pounds ... completing the same by Midsummer 1849". The internal plan of the house is similar to that of Pugin's own house, The Grange in Ramsgate and is known as the 'pin wheel' plan form.
Wilburton Manor had come into the possession of Sir Albert Pell in 1817 and after his death in 1832 was held by his widow the Hon Lady Margaret Letitia Matilda Pell until her death in 1868. In 1900 Sir Albert's two surviving nephews were joint lords. Albert Pell the elder, a noted agriculturalist and authority on the poor law, died in 1907 and was succeeded by his nephew Albert Julian, who had been acting as steward. On the death of Albert Julian Pell in 1916 his nephew, Beauchamp Stewart Pell, succeeded. Kelly’s Directory notes that ‘Wilburton Manor, a mansion of red brick and stone, erected from the designs of the late A.W.N. Pugin is the property of the trustees of Albert Julian Pell JP (deceased) who are lords of the manor and principal landowners: The house (1929) is currently unoccupied’. Pugin also worked on restoring St Peter’s Church in Wilburton for Lady Pell.
The Manor was sold to Cambridgeshire County Council in the mid C20 and is now used as a school, which opened on 12 October 1965. As a consequence of the reuse, the house has been adapted for use as accommodation for the pupils and other buildings have been constructed on the site.
