This one came to me with the back completely ripped off the hinge. I tried to re-rivet it by deforming the old rivets, and repunching them, but that didn't take, so it was suggested that a replacement back would be a better solution.
So while I'm waiting for the donor body, it's time for some CLA on the rest of the camera.

This is the hinge that cracked and then broke. I made Graham stop using it until we got the new shell and transferred the electronics into it. The remaining hinge houses the ribbon cable for the upper electronics. A tear in that cable would have ruined the DS.

Nice set of "T" hinges, true wrought iron from the the late 19th century. More trickier than one thinks to forge
Interesting relationship I just realized. It's not overly strong, but so long as your hinges aren't warped, they shouldn't flop around too much. Just one more reason to shoot the guy who decided to stop producing these hinges.
Apologies for the picture quality. I didn't have very good lighting for this shot.

by John Middleton, 1847 -1848.
Grade: II
1847-9 by John Middleton. 1900 Vestries by W S Hicks.
MATERIALS: Sandstone ashlar. Slate roofs.
PLAN: Nave, chancel, Nand S aisles, W tower, S porch, NE vestries.
EXTERIOR: A well-proportioned church in a severe Early English style. The chancel has clasping buttresses with corner shafts with bell capitals and a moulded wall..plate above astone band which in turn runs above an Early English-style corbel course. The roof is steeply pitched. There is a trefoil high up in the gable and a graded triple lancet E window with a hoodmould. The S side is buttressed and has a shoulder-headed doorway. The five-bay nave and lean-to aisles also have clasping corner buttresses. The aisles have a moulded wall-plate and plain stone band over a corbel course as on the chancel. There are buttresses between the bays, each of which has a single lancet window. There is a clerestory formed of
narrow lancet slits. The S porch is gabled, and has a richly moulded outer doorway with shafts and stiffleaf capitals, and a 19th-century two-leaf door with decorated strap hinges. At the W end there is a tall five-stage tower with a projecting SE stair turret to the lowest stage. The tower has big set-back
buttresses. There are lancet windows in the lowest stages. The penultimate stage has blind arcading and slit windows; the belfry stage has richly moulded belfry windows with shaft rings, recessed below a corbel cornice to the parapet which has a cornice. The visually abrupt termination of tower is due to the
fact that the intended broach spire was never built. Ther:e is a moulded W doorway with triple shafts in a shallow gabled projection with blind trefoils on either side of the gable: the 19th-century two-leaf door has decorative hinges. The NE vestry has lancet windows and a flat roof (reduced from an original gable) and a stack with a stone shaft. A 20th-century brick vestry has been built to the rear (W) of the original.
INTERIOR: The walls are plastered and whitened. The nave is very tall under an extremely steeply pitched roof. The chancel arch takes up almost the full width of the nave and has clustered shafts with bell capitals. Blind trefoils decorate the wall above the chancel arch. The tower arch is very tall. Between the nave and ,aisles there are five-bay arcades with double-chamfered arches on quatrefoil piers with fillets to the shafts and bell capitals. Over the nave is a substantial wind-braced roof with main and intermediate trusses, the main ones being arch-braced with curved queen struts above the collar. There are stone wall-shafts to the main trusses which rise from a string-course at clerestory sill level. The chancel has a most unusual roof with exceptionally long scissor braces and collars: there are ashlar pieces and a moulded wallplate: it is ceiled with horizontal boards behind the trusses. The aisle roofs are
supported on moulded stone corbels with diagonal braces between the rafters and the outer walls of the arcades. The triple lancet E window has internal mouldings on detached shafts with shaft-r,ings. Below the sill of the E window the wall is decorated with blind Early English-style arcading with small trefoils on the spandrels. The chancel is laid with Minton's encaustic tiles, the sanctuary having tiles with the symbols of the Evangelists. PRINCIPAL FIXTURES: The 19th-century fixtures and fittings are largely complete. The choir stalls
have poppyhead bench ends. There is a good polygonal stone pulpit decorated with niches flanked by polished marble shafts with white marble figures in the niches: it has a cornice decorated with stiff-leaf foliage and has a circular stem with polished marble shafts and brass barley sugar standards to the
handrail to the steps. The font is polygonal with a bowl and stem in one and has Early English arcading round it. The 19th century benches have shouldered ends and panels with blind flamboyant tracery. The nave has a timber dado of 1932. The stained glass includes a high-quality E window depicting the
Ascension. There is an unusual First World War memorial, a small Arts and Crafts triptych with a beaten metal image of a knight in the centre as the upright of a red enamel St George's cross with brass panels inscribed with names, to the wings.
SUBSIDIARY FEATURES: 19th-century cast-iron railings, gates, and stone gate piers to the churchyard. HISTORY: The expansion of population due to the arrival of railway workers for the York and Newcastle Railway Company in this area occasioned the need to expand Anglican church
accommodation. Initially a warehouse was used for Sunday services and in July 1845 a new ecclesiastical district was created. George Hudson, 'the Railway King', was adamant that the new church should by both conspicuous and attractive (Torode). Subscriptions were invited. The foundation stone was
laid on 10 September 1847 and the building was estimated to cost £3,200. Progress was slow and it was only completed in 1849: the official opening took place in January 1850. The church had some 620 seats of which over.380 were free. The final cost was £4,000. The architect, John Middleton (1820-85), was born in York where he became the pupil of James Pigott
Pritchett. He began practice in Darlington in 1843, presumably attracted by the opportunities presented by the expansion of this railway town. By 1859 he moved to Cheltenham where he had accepted a commission to design St Mark's church. He subsequently developed a very successful career in the area as a High Victorian Gothic architect. St John's is a fine building and marks the start of a distinguished churchbuilding career by Middleton. The proportions of the building and the Early English detail is handled with assurance and the building
has a strong architectural presence in is neighbourhood. It represents a marked advance in architectural sophistication
for church building since the 1830s when Early English-style churches were so often very routine and poor in detail. It is thus a reflection of the fact that Middleton, whose first church this was, had absorbed the messages from Pugin and the ecclesiologists about how churches should be built. Sadly the spire ,was never built.

REASONS FOR DESIGNATION:
The Church of St John the Evangelist is designated at Grade II for the following principal reasons: * It is of considerable interest as a well-proportioned early Victorian Gothic Revival church in a strong, severe Early English style. It marks a considerable advance on the rather starved lancet churches that were being built in considerable numbers just ten years before. * Although lacking the intended spire it has a very fine architectural presence and is an important local landmark. * The interior is tall and impressive and has a remarkable scissor-braced roof over the chancel. * It has retained an extensive collection of its original C19 fixtures and fittings, which retains their coherence." It is of historic interest as a reflection of Darlington's growth at this time, and for the particular connection with George Hudson, an important figure in railway history.
Jean de Hangest wears rather early all-enclosing plate armour on the limbs of a specific style.
The poleyns and couters are quite large, with always one lame in between the rerebraces, vambraces, cuisses and greaves.
Note the hinges on the outside of the greaves, though the carver didn’t depict straps on the inside.
Some mail can be seen where the greaves and sabatons, consisting of five lames, meet.
A surcoat with a fairly flowing skirt, ending in trefoils on all of its edges, is probably worn over a coat-of-plates.
The surcoat has got a slit on the right side for the dagger, now lost, protruding from under the coat-of-plates.
Also the hilt of the sword is lost.
A mail standard with the usual scalloped edge is worn on the neck. Also note the forked beard and curly hair of the time.
The inscription on the tomb possibly dates from the early 16th century, during the time when the church was rebuilt.
Jean de Hangest died in 1363 in London, as an hostage of King John the Good of France, who was captured by the English at the Battle of Poitiers in 1356.
We saw our first worn out set of bearings on a Brompton this winter. Nick's rear triangle was a bit shakey side-to-side, so new bearing to the rescue. This beautifully made reamer along with a knowledgeable toolmaster will make things good as new.
Nick was patient with us and knew the job would be done well. The next Brommie that needs a hinge bearing will be quick as we now have the tools and the parts.

It was on this day of photography that I was approached for the first time by someone who had a possible objection to my actions. As I was wandering round the small industrial estate on a Sunday afternoon, I was almost satisfied with the pictures I had taken so far. Shortly after taking a photo and walking back towards a road, a black 4x4 drove up the road towards me; I presumed they were perhaps asking for direction. It turned out to be the estate's security patrol officer who had been alerted by some of the units who had seen me on CCTV. He questioned me about the photos I was taking and I simply responded that I was interested in the colour and shapes the buildings had to offer, and being the open soul I am, offered to show him the photos. He wasn't bothered, but seemed satisfied that I wasn't there to scout out the security. "In that case I had better cancel the Police then. he said. I thought that was a good idea.
