I am Kiara, spiritual warrior princess in search of her beloved; our days are the last days of Revelation. Love letters in the Sand letters from Kiara by JasMine Snow. Letter Fourteen, the Spirit of the Sword: To Charlie Yohnah these are the progressive living works of my hands beloved one of my heart written to help awaken you through the Amen. Amen. Wake-up my dear one, you will remember me by my eyes. Beloved Charles, your name is as a cool breeze over the mountains. Always remember this proverbial saying my dear one: "The blessing of Jehovah—that is what makes rich, and he adds no pain with it. To the stupid one the carrying on of loose conduct is like sport, but wisdom is for the man of discernment. The thing frightful to the wicked one—that is what will come to him; but the desire of the righteous ones will be granted. As when the storm wind passes over, so the wicked one is no more; but the righteous one is a foundation to time indefinite."
The Spirit of the Sword is God's Word. I am one of the many spiritual warriors here on this planet earth in these last days of the conclusion of this system of things. I along with the other spiritual warriors including the one that was pregnant with me her name being Sithri, in Jehovah she takes her concealment and in Jehovah she finds her escape she is something of a mentor. Sithri is the Progeny of Gemariah as I am the progeny of Sithri.
I am Kiara, Spiritual Warrior princess of the Ancient of Days in search of her beloved Charles. All of us trusting in Jehovah are as clay in the Potters hand. Gemariah is the one who bore the labor pains while giving birth to her first born daughter Sithri. Gemariah means Jehovah has perfected. Together we wield this symbolic sword in the name of our living God Yahweh/Jehovah.
We now journeyed through the ending of this world by wielding together the spirit of the sword that is directing those searching ones to sit, eat & drink at God's table. We invite these people those wanting the rule of Love to sit at God's table and feast spiritually. God's healthful teachings are being shared throughout this ongoing quest for the benefits of those submitting to God's Sovereignty. The Kingdom of Heaven has arrived.
The Acts of the Apostles books 17:1-3 reads: "They now journeyed through Am·phip´o·lis and Ap·ol·lo´ni·a and came to Thes·sa·lo·ni´ca, where there was a synagogue of the Jews. So according to Paul’s custom he went inside to them, and for three sabbaths he reasoned with them from the Scriptures, explaining and proving by references that it was necessary for the Christ to suffer and to rise from the dead, and [saying]: “This is the Christ, this Jesus whom I am publishing to YOU.” As a result some of them became believers and associated themselves with Paul and Silas, and a great multitude of the Greeks who worshiped [God] and not a few of the principal women did so."
In the Letters of God's Testament it is written: "For the word of God is alive and exerts power and is sharper than any two-edged sword and pierces even to the dividing of soul and spirit, and of joints and [their] marrow, and [is] able to discern thoughts and intentions of [the] heart.
And there is not a creation that is not manifest to his sight, but all things are naked and openly exposed to the eyes of him with whom we have an accounting. . . . Jehovah your God is with you, YOU are drawing near today to the battle against YOUR enemies. Do not let YOUR hearts be timid. Do not be afraid and run in panic or shudder because of them, for Jehovah YOUR God is marching with YOU to fight for YOU against YOUR enemies so as to save YOU.’ " Books of Hebrews 4:12-13; Deuteronomy 20:1,3,4.
God's Word the bible is the symbolic sword that I hold close to my heart at the dawning of a New Era; speaking of it as the Word of God that is scriptural. God's Word the Bible is the sword it is also said that the spirit of the sword is God's Word. This sword is not a physical weapon and at no time is it carried on my person to harm others but to enlighten and refresh the broken hearted and the ones crushed in spirit for they are the down trodden ones which will find refreshment in the yoke of the Christ.
This sword is literally a symbolic sword that will remove the darkness of all that is evil bringing in the light of righteousness. A rule of Love, peace and security for all those that embrace this good news of the Kingdom of the living God, your grand Creator says to you by means of this sword: "Also, accept the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the spirit, that is, God’s word, while with every form of prayer and supplication YOU carry on prayer on every occasion in spirit. And to that end keep awake with all constancy and with supplication in behalf of all the holy ones," Book of Ephesians 6: 17-18.
Dear readers & friends, I am Kiara, spiritual warrior princess in search of her beloved our days are in Revelations. I come to you today in love my dear readers & friends to sooth and comfort you in these critical times hard to deal with. I come to you in intense love and by Love I am to speak of God's divine warnings that are to occur here on earth in the last days.
A woman in love is what I am; nothing less than a poet: "And through Christ Jesus a loving, obedient Son towards his Father, we may ourselves draw close to the God of heaven Jehovah. For by him we have life and move and exist, even as certain ones of the poets among YOU have said, For we are also his progeny." Acts 17:28.
A humble servant woman is I to the true God identified within the holy book and with the heart of a child I slave for God's Son the Christ. My form is comely in the way of being womanly, simply God's blue eyed shepherdess who stands barefoot, meek & mild in front of you. We as the true God's witnesses come to you in love.
Sithri, Gemariah and I and we are not alone for it is Shiloh that walks invisible by our side. The lion of Judah is amongst us as I am a woman in love in search of my dear one I have nick-named Charlie.
As a 'cool breeze over the mountains' I am in search of my boy companion.I am a spiritual warrior their exists no hate inside of me only love keeps my heart alive; strong & fast our one-heart beloved beats on by Love that has been deeply implanted into us by God's strong hand as it is the seed of love. I am a woman whose only refuge is in the God of heaven. Se´lah.
"God will send his loving-kindness and his trueness. . . .May this house have peace". Be blessed my dear readers and friends in the spirit of God's holiness as the disciple Luke has said I also say to you again: "May this house have peace". Se´lah. I am nothing more than a mere poet, one of God's many spiritual warriors. A brier-rose, I am to many. A fair maiden, I appear to be to others and in the eyes of curious onlookers seeing me as nothing more than merely a beautiful peasant girl.
But a true princess is what I am to be by birth right; I have always belonged to the Ancient of days. I am his family and God is my truest of friends. I have in my God Jehovah, a forever friend this friend being the Eternal King is also my forever helper. God is Almighty. God is the Ancient of Days and it is in the name of Jehovah I come in search of you my dear one.
The one I am on a walk with is God by his begotten Son that constantly walks invisible amongst us. We will sooner than later be reunited my dearest beloved one; you, yourself will make certain of this as it is our destiny. Jehovah is identified in the ancient prophetic books of the Bible as being the one true living God.
God is the Creator of the universe. And it is this same God who is our heavenly father. Never have you been left fatherless my dear one. Eyes of discernment is given to those searching truly the knowledge belonging to the true God as it is a gift to His people. Se´lah. I have been promised in marriage to my beloved. My boy companion has been chosen as my eternal husband as I for him his one and only everlasting wife by the divine and genuine hand of the one true God; we have been sealed together by the loving & righteous flames of Jah. Se´lah.
I am Kiara, spiritual warrior princess in search of her beloved one, our days are Revelations. My dearest Charles: "My soul is in the middle of lions; I cannot but lie down among devourers, [even] the sons of men, Whose teeth are spears and arrows, And whose tongue is a sharp sword. O be exalted above the heavens, O God; Let your glory be above all the earth. . . . Show me favor, O God, show me favor, For in you my soul has taken refuge; And in the shadow of your wings I take refuge until the adversities pass over." Book of Psalms 57:1,4-5.
We are to be baptized my dear one just as the others of the disciples have been throughout history. One begins to work towards the Kingdom of God by first taking in God's knowledge this is were wisdom is given and understanding. God speaks to my dear one, by means of His Word he says to Charles: "My son, my law do not forget,and my commandments may your heart observe, because length of days and years of life and peace will be added to you. . . .Do not become wise in your own eyes. Fear Jehovah and turn away from bad. . . .Trust in Jehovah with all your heart and do not lean upon your own understanding. In all your ways take notice of him, and he himself will make your paths straight." Book of Proverbs 3: 1-2,5-6.
Let God's true spiritual warriors continue to work zealously towards discipleship by obedience to God's high moral standards of all that is righteous & good in the eyes of God. Let us take our refuge together my dear one, under God's Kingdom that we may remain forever under the rule of love. One must become zealously active in living works towards God's Kingdom. Faith is dead without works. We are to understand and remember that the spirit of the sword is a symbolic sword representing the one faith that is God's Word.
God speaks into all nations by His divine Word which warns us in a loving way that there is only One faith, one Lord, one God and one baptism. It is His Word that is the one faith I continue to work actively in remaining within the holy writings this being scriptural. It is the one Word we as God's spiritual warriors carry in our hearts and minds at all times. And these are the everlasting sayings of the divine almighty one in the sky.
I pray for the everlasting sayings to have been written upon the very tablets of our hearts my dear one. "Happy is the man that has found wisdom, and the man that gets discernment, for having it as gain is better than having silver as gain and having it as produce than gold itself. . . .It is more precious than corals, and all other delights of yours cannot be made equal to it. Length of days is in its right hand; in its left hand there are riches and glory. Its ways are ways of pleasantness, and all its roadways are peace. It is a tree of life to those taking hold of it, and those keeping fast hold of it are to be called happy." Book of Proverbs 3:13-18.
Find wisdom my dearest beloved Charles, keeping fast hold of it and be called happy from the God giving to us His wisdom. Se´lah. "Its ways are ways of pleasantness, and all its roadways are peace. It is a tree of life to those taking hold of it," It is God's holy spirit which is the active spirit acting throughout these letters these are the letters from Kiara.
The spirit of God is received by the ones asking for it. Graciously received by them these being all the ones obedient to the grand Creator of heaven and earth through His only begotten Son. "Jesus spoke these things, and, raising his eyes to heaven, he said: “Father, the hour has come; glorify your son, that your son may glorify you, according as you have given him authority over all flesh, that, as regards the whole [number] whom you have given him, he may give them everlasting life. This means everlasting life, their taking in knowledge of you, the only true God, and of the one whom you sent forth, Jesus Christ." Book of John 17: 1-3.
Can you my dear one, hear the calling of the one true God through His shepherd king, Christ Jesus? Jesus is the Rock-Mass as God is the Rock. The foundation of God's people has been solidly built upon the Rock-Mass, God's living corner stone. Christ Jesus being the only one to be the head of the congregations belonging to His God Jehovah the God of Armies. The one calling out in the voice of an arch angel is God's shepherd; to God's people he has made known his God's name. It is promised to us by God through His Son that "God's Will is to be done on earth as it is in heaven."
Jesus Christ used the model prayer to give an example to his disciples of what they were to remember to ask God for by supplication through prayer. Let us then be of good faith by resting God's one faith in the hope of our love to be built upon the Rock's, Rock-Mass. "I solemnly charge you before God and Christ Jesus, who is destined to judge the living and the dead, and by his manifestation and his kingdom, preach the word, be at it urgently in favorable season, in troublesome season, reprove, reprimand, exhort, with all long-suffering and [art of] teaching. For there will be a period of time when they will not put up with the healthful teaching, but, in accord with their own desires, they will accumulate teachers for themselves to have their ears tickled; and they will turn their ears away from the truth, whereas they will be turned aside to false stories. You, though, keep your senses in all things, suffer evil, do [the] work of an evangelizer, fully accomplish your ministry." 2 Timothy 4:1-5.
The Almighty living God Jehovah has glorified His Son along side him as he had already once been so long ago and once again is. The ones rightfully belonging to the true God are awakened by the truth and these are the believers. One must first "believe in God to approach God". The true God of heaven has been identified in the holy bible as Jehovah God. The ancient book of prophesies has been as a witness bearer into all nations on earth in the last days?
Our days are prophecy in action. It has been written that God's witnesses are the people taken out from amongst all nations for His name sake. These people are from all different walks of life and still they remain in intense love as a united family of Jehovah God's by the unity of God's love. God's people are looked upon by the general population of the world to be a small nation. But mighty is God's small nation of seven million and growing across the four corners of earths lands.
The spirit of the sword is from above & rises above all other-kinds of wisdom and knowledge; the earth being the Footstool of the God of heaven. The sword of the Divine Word is given to the ones bearing true witness of the true God and his resurrected Christ Jesus by God's accurate Word in which it has been written down for all of us believing God's Word that we are to awaken from the hubris disease; the spell of the red dragon is broken by means of the word.
God has said to each one of us loving His Word of truth through Jesus that spoke God's prophesies when alive on earth as a human man Jesus said to us my dear one: "This means everlasting life, their taking in knowledge of you, the only true God, and of the one whom you sent forth, Jesus Christ." Eyes of discernment is given to those searching truly the knowledge belonging to the true God as it is a gift to His people. Se´lah.
God is the Creator of the universe. And it is this same God who is our heavenly father. Never have you been left fatherless my dear one. God's Word teaches His people to build up thinking ability by the spirit that is our helper. The spirit which Christ Jesus, himself, requested from the Father, to send to us the helper; that would our comfort once he returned back to heaven by the power of Love. what is in store for this old system of things you may ask yourself as the world has gone quite mad?And why is God filling the earths lands up with spiritual news according to divine prophesies to still occur on earth with the message of this world's end?
This good News is being proclaimed today into all nations by God's people (they are the ones exercising faith in Christ recognizing his voice by means of God's Word; the same Jesus that has always been God's only begotten Son the resurrected first born from the dead to be granted to a spiritual immortal life) and even His angels do not have immortal life.
God's glorious angelic creatures are also hard at work. the good news of the true God's active and existing spiritual government Kingdom has always been and always will remain to be ruled by Love. This world as we now have known it has been prophesied to end in a selective and divine spiritual war arriving from heaven upon the world of ungodly ones and their earth bound kingdoms. God promises that He will make all things new by ushering out the dark world and its ruler Satan the Devil the great red fiery colored dragon in the end will be slain dead.
But first God's Millennium King will chain the dragon and his demons for a literal thousand years of inactivity due to being thrown into the abyss. God's Word is in our presence this Word being alive able to cut through bone and marrow as it is God's Word that is sharper than any two edge sword". The Almighty spirit of the sword is the helper that unveils all and any untruths spoken by false teachers and false prophets here in the end of days. These are the everlasting sayings of the true God of Heaven. Se´lah.
These are the Letters from Kiara by JasMine Snow. Did you know that God has a personal name? Did you realize that God is a title? Did you ever wonder if God has a purpose for the human race to protect and to preserve the very creation of obedient humankind? God's prophecies speak about God having His preset goal to sanctify His name come the great & fear inspiring Day of Armageddon.
The ruler of this old dark world which is nobody other than the original serpent, Satan the Devil known as the father of lies tried to tarnish God's holy name. Satan the first fallen angel fell out from God's grace by his willful disobedience to God & his skilfully worldly fashioned lies to Eve continuing down into our days of Revelations. He accomplished to end Adam and Eves perfect lives by fully seducing the first created human woman Eve when he spoke through a serpent in the Garden of Eden calling God a liar.
Prophecy has already shown the awakened ones by means of His Word that in the end it is Jehovah God of Armies to be Victorious. It has been written that the God of heaven and earth accomplishes this through His Messianic Kingdom ending all of the kingdoms infinitely on earth by His King crushing every man made kingdom here in the end of days.God's Love by means of His Word also prophesies that He has taken a people out from amongst all nations for His name sake?
And these people come to Him through His Shepherd King as they are led to the Mountain of Jehovah to feast and drink in a spiritual feast empowering them to endure till the end of this old system of things has been put out of commission by Christ Jesus who leads the entire angelic army, accomplishing God's Will and fulfillment of God's prophesies in action here in the end of days.
It has been written that in the last days God's Word is to ring true to all the ones wanting salvation through the Son of God will call upon the name of Jehovah and they will be saved. "For God loved the world so much that he gave his only-begotten Son, in order that everyone exercising faith in him might not be destroyed but have everlasting life. For God sent forth his Son into the world, not for him to judge the world, but for the world to be saved through him. He that exercises faith in him is not to be judged. . . . He that does not exercise faith has been judged already, because he has not exercised faith in the name of the only-begotten Son of God.
Now this is the basis for judgment, that the light has come into the world but men have loved the darkness rather than the light, for their works were wicked. For he that practices vile things hates the light and does not come to the light, in order that his works may not be reproved. But he that does what is true comes to the light, in order that his works may be made manifest as having been worked in harmony with God.” John 3:16-21.
Did you know that God's personal name Jehovah has been removed over seven thousand times in the old Testament and men have replaced His holy name with the title lord in capital letters? Christ Jesus made His God & Father's name known to all the ones God gave to him as Jesus Christ is the Son of man, Prince of peace & our high priest crowned to be the Millennium King to reign God's Kingdom ruled by Love for a literal thousand years beginning on the day of Armageddon.
What an exciting and history making time we are all living in as these are the end of days according to the spirit of the sword-God's Word.This means everlasting life, their taking in knowledge of you, the only true God, and of the one whom you sent forth, Jesus Christ. I have glorified you on the earth, having finished the work you have given me to do.
So now you, Father, glorify me alongside yourself with the glory that I had alongside you before the world was.“I have made your name manifest to the men you gave me out of the world. They were yours, and you gave them to me, and they have observed your word. They have now come to know that all the things you gave me are from you; because the sayings that you gave me I have given to them, and they have received them and have certainly come to know that I came out as your representative, and they have believed that you sent me forth.
I make request concerning them; I make request, not concerning the world, but concerning those you have given me; because they are yours, and all my things are yours and yours are mine, and I have been glorified among them.“Also, I am no longer in the world, but they are in the world and I am coming to you. Holy Father, watch over them on account of your own name which you have given me, in order that they may be one just as we are. When I was with them I used to watch over them on account of your own name which you have given me; and I have kept them, and not one of them is destroyed except the son of destruction, in order that the scripture might be fulfilled.
But now I am coming to you, and I am speaking these things in the world in order that they may have my joy in themselves to the full. I have given your word to them, but the world has hated them, because they are no part of the world, just as I am no part of the world. “I request you, not to take them out of the world, but to watch over them because of the wicked one. They are no part of the world, just as I am no part of the world. Sanctify them by means of the truth; your word is truth.
Just as you sent me forth into the world, I also sent them forth into the world. And I am sanctifying myself in their behalf, that they also may be sanctified by means of truth. “I make request, not concerning these only, but also concerning those putting faith in me through their word; in order that they may all be one, just as you, Father, are in union with me and I am in union with you, that they also may be in union with us, in order that the world may believe that you sent me forth." John 17:3-21.
God what is your name poem by JasMine Snow.
Here I lay in wait, no souls in sight just the stars and the moon and my memory of him-the man that swam in my eyes. I remember winding hills and the sent of wild yellow-jasmine growing across the edges of the mountainsides of little bear & Big-bear. Big Bear Mountain was winding itself up, up, up like a spin top as we drove on a motorcycle seven thousand feet high. Breathing in clouds & driving on air billowing memories on this mid summer’s night. It was the feeling of a walk in the clouds.
A big sign hung suspended as if by nothing like a painted white suitor. If true love has come to find me so may it be my love that binds me. I remember he lived beneath that giant white sign and I worked above it on the sunset horse ranch of the western Hollywood hills. Those winding hills still are calling out to me. The rising sent of wild yellow jasmine throughout the air; I could smell it now as if it where all around me.
He is calling me back that I may remember him, awakening me to return. Charlie has set it in his mind that he will be with the only woman that was created to be made his if she does indeed exist. Here I am as I am God's barefoot shepherdess; I am a woman with the heart of a child. My God given name is Kiara the one in which God has had created in all of my humanness to be your complement my beloved Charles. I will find my way to the man which God has chosen for me by the dove landing & appearing to be sitting on his shoulder. He will recognize me by my eyes and I will recognize him by his heart as we are one-heart my dear one.
If I find my way back to him it will be because God will lead me to find him for true love is life saving. Our hearts remember true Love's flight even when our minds can forget either by life's tragedies or falls into plight.I have fallen, stumbled somehow into this night. It is the rising sent of wild yellow jasmine taking me back to the winding hills. West Hollywood is where my heart awoke by love at first sight. Would he know who I was if he saw me again?
Would his heart remember me by the way he would feel after he looked into me? My eyes had greatly appealed to him way back then. I wonder now if we saw each other again after twenty years what would be his first reaction towards me?My true love did quote once to someone that he would rather remain private and silent on the matter of the things belonging to God.
Not in these words, in his own way he spoke with a boyish laugh to escape the question pondered by a curious inquiring mind. His personal thoughts about these things were to remain in silence to the outside world. Yet God read his heart in that moment.Even before that moment God had already entered into his heart; as God alone is the reader of all hearts. I knew then the things he did not understand as of yet frightened him, afraid to be judged by the people.
Come the time we meet things will become clear and understanding will come to you by the truth that has been revealed to you. I will share with him the ancient scrolls that he may see for himself the things belonging to God.“moreover, if, you call out for understanding itself and you give forth your voice for discernment itself, if you keep seeking for it as for silver, and as for hid treasures you keep searching for it, in that case you will understand the fear of Jehovah, and you will find the very knowledge of God. For Jehovah himself gives wisdom; out of his mouth there are knowledge and discernment.” Proverbs 2:3-6.
Who is it that made the stars? Who is it that made the moon? And what about the way the rainbow is arched like a doorway reaching from one end of the earth to the other end. Out will come the sun, the birds begin to hum- someone had to make the sun?
The grass is sweet, and it reminds me that there is a Creator. Man is so small compared to the universe; we are just part of His Creation.Sweet smelling earth the flowers are being tasted by buzzing bees. I will forget the rising pain I have from the fall and focus on what God is trying to tell me. Will my life be the same once I remember it all? Plucking with my finger and my thumb its like I'm strumming the guitar.
I bring the fresh picked grass close under my nose, breathing deep into its aromas settles me.am remembering snowdrifts and sunsets from the past as I lay on the bed of grass. In its dewy form beneath me, the grass has become like a bed to rest my wearisome soul upon.
The earth under me like a heartbeat warm. Not even man can reproduce one piece of natural grass so who made the grass and the earth? Man is a creation so man did not create himself. Neither did he create the earth or anything under the sun made by the hand of divine creation. God is the creator of the universe.
God is the one who made the stars, the moon, the sun, the grass, the earth and even God created us. Even before God had created all these things, He, first created his first-born creation being in the form of God that form being in spirit. What form is God? “God is a spirit,” John 4: 24.
God’s first born was a spirit son whom God named Michael in heaven when born into the earth in the flesh; God told the angel Gabriel to tell Mary that she was to call God’s Son Jesus. I am remembering certain passages from a book of ancient prophetic scroll. “God sent forth his Son, who came to be out of a woman and who came to be under law, … So the Word became flesh and resided among us, and we had a view of his glory such as belongs to an only begotten son from a father; and he was full of undeserved kindness and truth. Galatians 4:4; John 1:14.
Jesus said at Proverbs 8: 22-23: “Jehovah himself produced me as the beginning of his way, the earliest of his achievements of long ago. From time indefinite I was installed, One by one the stars slip away under painted skies of darkened colors slip away. A rising sun is on its glorious way as I lay in memories.
The sun is like the oranges I peeled and the tea spiced with ginger I drank.Yes, it must be God who has done these wonderful works. The hand of God is brushing the colors of maroon-yellowed hues from the sun into the morning indigo sky. "And God proceeded to make the two great luminaries, the greater luminary for dominating the day and the lesser luminary for dominating the night, and also the stars.” Genesis 1: 6.
Only love brings about such beauty. Love brings about the truth. The truth of God's Word is the good news that I will share with my love. Love shares the truth with us. If God were Love then He would want us to know Him. Love is kind. Love loyal and long-suffering. God must have a Name as everything else has a name.
Why would God not have a Name, all of Creation has been named! What is your name God? The earth speaks to us as a silent & forever witness by all of His Creations. And I heard what has been written down in the Holy Divine Scriptures from the Ancient of Days. As if He had spoken out loud I could hear God say: The Word of God is alive and always answers: “I am Jehovah, that is my name;” Isaiah 42:8.
Does it belong to mortal man to posses the powers of creation? Whose powers are the highest that He himself has created a universe its entirety yet to be discovered. Could the sovereign God be the one? Whose powers are the highest that He himself has created a universe its entirety yet to be discovered. Could the sovereign God be the one?
Who should it be to rule humankind by nothing more or nothing less than a rule existing only by love and in love should mortal man be ruled?It is God the source of all energy. He says to the ones searching for answers: “Raise your eyes high up and see. Who has created these things? . . . Show me favor, O God, show me favor, For in you my soul has taken refuge; And in the shadow of your wings I take refuge until the adversities pass over. I call to God the Most High, to the [true] God who is bringing [them] to an end on my account. He will send from heaven and save me. He will certainly confuse the one snapping at me. Se´lah.
God will send his loving-kindness and his trueness.My soul is in the middle of lions; I cannot but lie down among devourers, [even] the sons of men, Whose teeth are spears and arrows, And whose tongue is a sharp sword. O be exalted above the heavens, O God; Let your glory be above all the earth.
A net they have prepared for my steps; My soul has become bowed down. They excavated before me a pitfall; They have fallen into the midst of it. Se´lah. My heart is steadfast, O God, My heart is steadfast. I will sing and make melody.Do awake, O my glory; Do awake, O stringed instrument; you too, O harp. I will awaken the dawn. I shall laud you among the peoples, O Jehovah; I shall make melody to you among the national groups.For your loving-kindness is great up to the heavens, And your trueness up to the skies. Do be exalted above the heavens, O God; Let your glory be above all the earth." Psalms 57:1-11.

This is an Aerial view of South Shields, May 1949

This photograph is part of a set that has been created to celebrate the opening of South Tyneside Council’s new leisure centre, Haven Point, on 28 October. It focuses in particular on life along the foreshore at South Shields during the 1950s but also includes a few images from further down the coast.
South Shields has long been a popular seaside resort and also has a proud industrial heritage. Times have changed, though, and many of the old industries such as shipbuilding and coal mining have disappeared. Rather than stand still and accept this change in fortunes, South Tyneside Council is pressing ahead with an ambitious vision to transform the Foreshore, Town Centre and Riverside areas into vibrant destinations. Haven Point is a key part of this change.
Tyne & Wear Archives and South Tyneside Local Studies Library have a vital role to play in this. As South Shields is regenerated and forever changed the Archives and Local Studies serve as its memory. We keep alive a window into the town’s past, preserving the history of people, places and industries that no longer exist. South Shields must look forward but its sense of direction will be lost if it forgets where it came from.
These images, together with a fantastic selection from South Tyneside Local Studies Library, can be seen in a digital exhibition at Haven Point. You can also see images from the Local Studies Library online at www.southtynesideimages.org.uk/.

This image has been taken from the Joseph L Thompson & Sons Ltd shipbuilders’ collection. The photographs, taken at the Sunderland Based Shipyard were used in the publicity campaign 'The Art of Shipbuilding' published in 1946 to promote the firms of Joseph L. Thompson & Sons Ltd and Sir James Laing & Sons Ltd.
Inspired by the upcoming Grayson Perry exhibition 'The Vanity in small differences' Tyne & Wear Archives have created this set in reaction to some of the themes surrounding Sunderland and its social make up that have been explored by Grayson Perry in his six large scale tapestries.
This set features both Social and Landscape Photography of a nostalgic Sunderland; these consist of both Aerial views of the physical make up of Sunderland's landscape, mixed with social portraits of the working community and industrial scenes traditionally associated with Sunderland's Heritage. Both are relevant to Grayson Perry's upcoming collection of Tapestries exploring the story of class mobility and the influence social class has on our aesthetic taste.
When recently interviewed on the subject Perry states "When I asked club singer Sean Foster-Conley what I should feature in my tapestries to show working-class taste, he said “the mines and shipyards”. “But they no longer exist,” I replied. In a very important way, however, he was right. The heavy industries that shaped the north of England also shaped the emotional lives of the generations of people who lived there. Winding towers and cranes can be torn down in a day, but the bonds, formed through shared hardship working under them, live on."
These images of a community driven by industry, mixed with Aerial
Views of the physical make up of Sunderland during this time reflect on Perry's view of the eternal relevance that Sunderland's social and industrial past has on its present community.

It seems incredible to me that there are any churches in East Kent, at least parish churches, that I had yet to visit and photograph. Especially along Stone Street, which I thought that nks to churches and orchids I knew very well. And yet as I cross-referenced between John Vigar's book and the county A-Z, I saw more and more churches I had to visit.
And that brings us to Elmstead.
Elmstead is less a viallage and more a dog leg in a single track lane, and the church sits in the dog leg. Being a small place, surely it would have a small church? No, the church is large with two leat to chapels, and an extraordinary timber topped tower.
You reach Elmstone by taking tiny fork off Stone Street and following the narrowest of lanes, which has high banks and hedges both sides with few passing places. Down through woods, down steep hills crossing streams and up hills the other side, and all the while the road coated with a thick layer of mud, so that one hoped you were still on the road not having driven into a field.
In time I passed the village sign, and no missing the church, a large flint built church, and the triple gabled east end facing towards the road. Behind the tower was partially hidden, but I could already see the wooden upper part.
And it was open, and filled with much of interest, especially the stone altar in the south aisle.
---------------------------------------------
An extremely worthwhile church in remote countryside. The tower is an unusual shape, being almost twice as wide as it is deep and capped by a wooden upper storey with stumpy spire. The church consists of nave, aisles, chancel and equal length chapels. The nave is Norman: the original arch to the tower is still recognisable although a fourteenth-century replacement has been built inside it. At the same time the present arcade was built on the existing piers. In the north aisle is a medieval vestry screen, in front of which is a Norman font. There are very fine altar rails, each baluster looking like an eighteenth-century candlestick. Between the main altar and chapel is a simple thirteenth-century sedilia. The south chapel altar has a twelfth-century mensa which was discovered in the churchyard in 1956. The east window (1880) commemorates Arthur Honeywood who was killed in the Afghan war - only a dog survived and was given an award by Queen Victoria! Honeywood's ancestor, Sir John (d. 1781), is also remembered in the church by a splendid marble bust signed by Scheemakers

ELMSTED
IS the next parish northward from Hastingligh lastdescribed, taking its name, as many other places do, which are recorded in the survey of Domesday, from the quantity of elms growing in it, elm signifying in Saxon, that tree, and stede, a place. The manor of Hastingligh claims over some part of this parish, which part is within the liberty of the duchy of Lancaster.
THIS PARISH is situated in a lonely unfrequented part of the country, above the down hills, in a healthy air. It lies mostly on high ground, having continued hill and dale throughout it. The soil is but poor, and in general chalk, and much covered with flints, especially in the dales, where some of the earth is of a reddish cast. The church stands on a hill in the middle of it, having a green, with the village near it, among which is the court-lodge: and at a small distance westward, Helchin-bouse, belonging to Sir John Honywood, but now and for some time past inhabited by the Lushingtons. Lower down in the bottom is Evington-court, in a dull ineligible situation, to which however the present Sir John Honywood has added much, and laid out some park-grounds round it. At a small distance is a small heath, called Evington-lees, with several houses round it. At the southern bounds of the parish lie Botsham, and Holt, both belonging to Sir John Honywood. At the north-east corner of it, near Stone-street, is a hamlet called Northlye, the principal farm in which belongs to Mr. Richard Warlee, gent. of Canterbury, about half a mile from which is Deane, or Dane manor-house; and still further Dowles-farm, belonging to Mr. John Rigden, of Faversham; near Stone-street is the manor of Southligh, now called Mizlings, by which name only it is now known here; and near the same street is Arundel farm, belonging to Thomas Watkinson Payler, esq. and at the southern extremity of the parish, the manor-house of Dunders, with the lands belonging to it, called the Park, formerly belonging to the Graydons, of Fordwich, of whom they were purchased, and are now the property of the right hon. Matthew Robinson Morris, lord Rokeby, who resides at Horton. There are but two small coppice woods in this parish, lying at some distance from each other, in the middle part of it.
There is a fair kept yearly in this parish on St. James's day, the 25th of July.
THE MANOR OF ELMSTED was in the year 811 bought by archbishop Wlfred, of Cenulf, king of Mercia, for the benefit of Christ-church, in Canterbury, L. S. A. which letters meant, that it should be free, and privileged with the same liberties that Adisham was, when given to that church. These privileges were, to be freed from all secular services, excepting the trinoda necessitas of repelling invasions, and the repairing of bridges and fortifications. (fn. 1)
There is no mention of this manor in the survey of Domesday, under the title of the archbishop's lands, and of those held of him by knight's service, and yet I find mention of its being held of him in several records subsequent to that time; for soon afterwards it appears to have been so held by a family who assumed their name from it, one of whom, Hamo de Elmested, held it of the archbishop, by knight's service. But they were extinct here before the middle of king Henry III,'s reign, when the Heringods were become possessed of it, as appears by the Testa de Nevil, bearing for their arms, Gules, three herrings erect, two and one, or; as they were formerly in the windows of Newington church, near Sittingborne. John de Heringod held it at his death in the 41st year of that reign. His grandson, of the same name, died in the next reign of king Edward I. without male issue, leaving three daughters his coheirs, of whom, Grace married Philip de Hardres, of Hardres, in this county; Christiana married William de Kirkby; and Jane married Thomas Burgate, of Suffolk: but he had before his death, by a deed, which bears the form of a Latin will, and, is without a date, settled this manor, with the other lands in this neighbourhood, on the former of them, Philip de Hardres, a man of eminent repute of that time, in whose successors the manor of Elmsted remained till the 13th year of King James I. when Sir Thomas Hardres sold the manor of Dane court, an appendage to this of Elmsted, in the north-east part of this parish, to Cloake, and the manor of Elmsted itself to Thomas Marsh, gent. of Canterbury, whose son ton, whose great-grandson of the same name, at his death left it to his two sons, Richard and John, the former of whom was of Faversham, and left an only daughter Elizabeth, married to Mr. James Taylor, of Rodmersham, who in right of his wife became possessed of his moiety of it, and having in 1787 purchased the other moiety of John Lushington, of Helchin, in this parish, (son of Richard above-mentioned) became possessed of the whole of this manor, and continues owner of it at this time.
THE MANOR OF DANE, now called Deane-court, above-mentioned, remained in the name of Cloake for some time afterwards, and in 1652 Mr. Samuel Cloake held it. It afterwards passed into the name of Elwes, in which it continued down to John Elwes, esq. of Marcham, in Berkshire, who died in 1789, and by will gave it to his nephew Thomas Timms, esq. the present owner of it.
THE YOKE OF EVINGTON is an estate and seat in the south-west part of this parish, over which the manor of Barton, near Canterbury, claims jurisdiction. The mansion of it, called Evington-court, was the inheritance of gentlemen of the same surname, who bore for their arms, Argent, a sess between three burganetts, or steel caps, azure; and in a book, copied out from antient deeds by William Glover, Somerset herald, afterwards in the possession of John Philipott, likewise Somerset, there was the copy of an old deed without date, in which William Fitzneal, called in Latin, Filius Nigelli, passed over some land to Ruallo de Valoigns, which is strengthened by the appendant testimony of one Robert de Evington, who was ancestor of the Evingtons, of Evington-court, of whom there is mention in the deeds of this place, both in the reigns of king Henry III. and king Edward I. After this family was extinct here, the Gays became possessed of it, a family originally descended out of France, where they were called Le Gay, and remained some time afterwards in the province of Normandy, from whence those of this name in Jersey and Guernsey descended, and from them again those of Hampshire, and one of them, before they had left off their French appellation, John le Gay, is mentioned in the leiger book of Horton priory, in this neighbourhood, as a benefactor to it. But to proceed; although Evington-court was not originally erected by the family of Gay, yet it was much improved by them with additional buildings, and in allusion to their name, both the wainscot and windows of it were adorned with nosegays. At length after the Gays, who bore for their arms, Gules, three lions rampant, argent, an orle of cross-croslets, fitchee, or. (fn. 2) had continued owners of this mansion till the beginning of the reign of king Henry VII. Humphry Gay, esq. alienated it to John Honywood, esq. of Sene, in Newington, near Hythe, and afterwards of St. Gregory's, Canterbury, where he died in 1557, and was buried in that cathedral.
The family of Honywood, antiently written Henewood, take their name from the manor of Henewood, in Postling, where they resided as early as Henry III.'s reign, when Edmund de Henewood, or Honywood, as the name was afterwards spelt, of that parish, was a liberal benefactor to the priory of Horton, and is mentioned as such in the leiger book of it. After which, as appears by their wills in the Prerogative-office, in Canterbury, they resided at Hythe, for which port several of them served in parliament, bearing for their arms, Argent, a chevron, between three hawks heads erased, azure; one of them, Thomas Honywood, died in the reign of king Edward IV. leaving a son John, by whose first wife descended the elder branch of this family, settled at Evington, and baronets; and by his second wife descended the younger branch of the Honywoods, seated at Petts, in Charing, and at Markshall, in Effex, which branch is now extinct. (fn. 3) John Honywood, esq. the eldest son of John above-mentioned, by his first wife, was the purchaser of Evington, where his grandson Sir Thomas Honywood resided. He died in 1622, and was buried at Elmsted, the burial place of this family. (fn. 4) He left by his first wife several sons and daughters; of the former, John succeeded him at Evington and Sene, and Edward was ancestor of Frazer Honywood, banker, of London, and of Malling abbey, who died s. p. in 1764. (fn. 5) Sir John Honywood, the eldest son, resided during his father's time at Sene, in Newington, and on his death removed to Evington. He served the office of sheriff in the 18th, 19th, and 20th years of king Charles I. Sir Edward Honywood, his eldest son, resided likewise at Evington, and was created a baronet on July 19, 1660. His great grandson Sir John Honywood, bart. at length in 1748, succeeded to the title and family estates, and afterwards resided at Evington, where he kept his shrievalty in 1752. On the death of his relation Frazer Honywood, esq. banker, of London, in 1764, he succeeded by his will to his seats at Malling abbey, and at Hampsted, in Middlesex, besides a large personal estate; after which he resided at times both here and at Hampsted, at which latter he died in 1781, æt. 71, and was buried with his ancestors in this church. He had been twice married; first to Annabella, daughter of William Goodenough, esq. of Langford, in Berk shire, whose issue will be mentioned hereafter; and secondly to Dorothy, daughter of Sir Edward Filmer, bart. of East Sutton, by whom he had two sons, Filmer Honywood, esq. of Marks-hall, in Essex, to which as well as other large estates in that county, and in this of Kent, he succeeded by the will of his relation Gen. Philip Honywood, and lately was M. P. for this county, and is at present unmarried; and John, late of All Souls college, Oxford, who married Miss Wake, daughter of Dr. Charles Wake, late prebendary of Westminster; and Mary, married to Willshire Emmett, esq. late of Wiarton. By his first wife Sir John Honywood had two sons and four daughters; William the eldest, was of Malling abbey, esq. and died in his father's life time, having married Elizabeth, daughter of Mr. Clack, of Wallingford, in Berkshire, by whom he had three sons and one daughter Annabella, married to R. G. D. Yate, esq of Gloucestershire; of the former, John was heir to his grandfather, and is the present baronet; William is now of Liminge, esq. and married Mary, sister of James Drake Brockman, esq. of Beechborough, and Edward married Sophia, daughter of the Rev. Mr. Long, of Suffolk. Edward, the second son, was in the army, and died without issue. The daughters were, Annabella, married to Edmund Filmer, rector of Crundal; and Thomasine, married to William Western Hugessen, esq. of Provenders, both since deceased. On Sir John Honywood's death in 1781, he was succeeded by his eldest grandson abovementioned, the present Sir John Honywood, bart. who resides at Evington, to which he has made great improvements and additions. He married Frances, one of the daughters of William, viscount Courtenay, by whom he has three daughters, Frances-Elizabeth, Charlotte-Dorothea, and Annabella-Christiana, and one son John, born in 1787. (fn. 6).
BOTTSHAM, antiently and more properly written Bodesham, is a manor in the western part of this parish. About the year 687 Swabert, king of Kent, gave among others, three plough-lands in a place called Bodesham, to Eabba, abbess of Minister, in Thanet, and in the reign of king Edward the Consessor, one Ælgeric Bigg gave another part of it to the abbey of St. Augustine, by the description of the lands called Bodesham, on condition that Wade, his knight, should possess them during his life. (fn. 7) The former of these continued in the monastery till the reign of king Canute, when it was plundered and burnt by the Danes. After which the church and lands of the monastery of Minster, and those of Bodesham among them, were granted to St. Augustine's monastery, and remained, together with those given as above-mentioned by Ælgeric Bigg, part of the possessions of it at the taking of the survey of Domesday, in which record it is thus described:
In Limowart left, in Stotinges hundred, Gaufrid holds Bodesham of the abbot. It was taxed at one suling. The arable land is two carucates, and there are, with eight borderers, wood for the pannage of fifteen hogs. In the time of king Edward the Confessor it was worth four pounds, and afterwards twenty shillings, now four pounds, A certain villein held it.
Hugh, abbot of St. Augustine, and his chapter, in the year 1110, granted to Hamo, steward of the king's houshold, this land of Bodesham, upon condition that he should, if there should be occasion, advise and assist him and his successors in any pleas brought against him by any baron, either in the county or in the king's court.
Hamo above-mentioned, whose surname was Crevequer, had come over into this kingdom with the Conqueror, and was rewarded afterwards with much land in this county, and was made sheriff of it during his life, from whence he was frequently stiled Hamo Vicecomes, or the sheriff. He lived till the middle of king Henry I.'s reign; and in his descendants it most probably remained till it came into the possession of the family of Gay, or Le Gay as they were sometimes written, owners of the yoke of Evington likewise, in which it continued till it was at length sold with it, in the beginning of Henry VII.'s reign, to Honywood, as has been fully mentioned before; in whose descendants it still remains, being now the property of Sir John Honywood, bart. of Evington.
IN THE REIGN of king Edward I. Thomas de Morines held half a knight's fee of the archbishop in Elmsted, which estate afterwards passed into the family of Haut, and in the reign of king Edward III. had acquired the name of the Manor Of Elmsted, alias SOUTHLIGH. In which family of Haut it continued down to Sir William Haut, of Bishopsborne, who lived in the reign of king Henry VIII. and left two daughters his coheirs, Elizabeth, married to Thomas Culpeper, of Bedgbury; and Jane, to Thomas Wyatt. The former of whom, in the division of their inheritance, (fn. 8) became possessed of it; from his heirs it passed by sale to Best, and from thence again to Rich. Hardres, esq. of Hardres, whose descendant Sir Tho. Hardres, possessed it in king James I.'s reign; at length, after some intermediate owners, it passed to Browning, whose descendant M. John Browning, of Yoklets, in Waltham, is the present owner of this manor.
There are no parochial charities. The poor constantly relieved are about thirty, casually seventeen.
Elmsted is within the Ecclesiastical Jurisdiction of the diocese of Canterbury, and deanry of Elham.
The church, which is dedicated to St. James, is a handsome building, consisting of three isles and three chancels, having a low pointed wooden steeple at the west end, in which are six bells. The chancels are open, one towards the other, the spaces between the pillars not being filled up, which gives the whole a light and airy appearance. In the middle chancel, which is dedicated to St. James, are memorials for the Taylors, who intermarried with the Honywoods, and for the Lushingtons, of Helchin; one for John Cloke, gent. of Northlye, obt. 1617. In the east window is a shield of arms, first and fourth, A lion rampant, or; second, On a fess, argent, three eros-croslets; third, obliterated. In another compartment of the window is the figure of an antient man sitting, in robes lined with ermine, a large knotted staff in his left hand. The north chancel is called the parish chancel, in which is an elegant monument, of white marble, with the bust of the late Sir John Honywood, bart.(a gentleman whose worthy character is still remembered with the highest commendation and respect, by all who knew him). He died much lamented by his neighbours and the country in general in 1781; and on the pavement are numbers of gravestones for the family of Honywood and their relatives. The south chancel, dedicated to St. John, belongs to Evington, in which there are several monuments, and numbers of gravestones, the pavement being covered with them, for the Honywood family, some of which have inscriptions and figures on brasses remaining on them. Underneath this chancel is a large vault, in which the remains of the family lie deposited. On the north side of this chancel is a tomb, having had the figures on it of a man between his two wives: and at each corner a shield of arms in brass for Gay. On the capital of a pillar at the east end of this tomb is this legend, in old English letters, in gold, which have been lately repaired: Pray for the sowlys of Xtopher Gay, Agnes and Johan his wifes, ther chylder and all Xtian sowlys, on whose sowlys Jhu have mcy; by which it should seem that he was the founder, or at least the repairer of this chancel. Underneath is carved a shield of arms of Gay. In the east window are two shields of arms, of modern glass, for Honywood. In the south isle is a monument for Sir William Honywood, bart. of Evington, obt. 1748. In the middle isle are several old stones, coffin shaped. William Philpot, of Godmersham, by will anno 1475, ordered that the making of the new seats, calledle pewis, in this church, should be done at his expence, from the place where St. Christopher was painted, to the corner of the stone wall on the north side of the church.
The church of Elmsted belonged to the priory of St. Gregory, in Canterbury, perhaps part of its original endowment by archbishop Lanfranc, in the reign of the Conqueror. It was very early appropriated to it, and was confirmed to the priory by archbishop Hubert, among its other possessions, about the reign of king Richard I. at which time this church, with five acres of arable, and five acres of wood, and the chapel of Dene, appear to have been esteemed as chapels to the adjoining church of Waltham, and the appropriation of it continued part of the possessions of the priory till the dissolution of it in king Henry VIII.'s reign, when it was surrendered into the king's hands, where this appropriation remained but a small time, for an act passed that year, to enable the king and the archbishop to make an exchange of estates, by which means it became part of the revenues of the see of Canterbury, and was afterwards demised by the archbishop, among the rest of the revenues of the above-mentioned priory, which had come to him by the above-mentioned exchange, in one great lease; under which kind of demise it has continued from time to time ever since. Philip, earl of Chesterfield, as heir to the Wottons, was lessee of the above estates, in which this parsonage was included; since whose decease in 1773, his interest in the lease of them has been sold by his executors to Geo. Gipps, esq. of Canterbury, who is the present lessee, under the archbishop, for them.
But the vicarage of this church seems never to have belonged to the priory of St. Gregory, and in the 8th year of Richard II. anno 1384, appears to have been part of the possessions of the abbot of Pontiniac, at which time it was valued at four pounds. How long it staid there, I have not found; but it became afterwards part of the possessions of the see of Canterbury, and remains so at this time, his grace the archbishop being the present patron of it.
¶The vicarage of Elmsted is endowed with the tenths of hay, silva cedua, mills, heifers, calves, chicken, pigs, lambs, wool, geese, ducks, eggs, bees, honey, wax, butter, cheese, milk-meats, flax, hemp, apples, pears, swans, pidgeons, merchandise, fish, onions, fowlings, also all other small tithes or obventions whatsoever within the parish; and also with all grass of gardens or other closes, vulgarly called homestalls, although they should be at any time reduced to arable; and the tithes of all and singular feedings and pastures, even if those lands so lot for feedings and pastures should be accustomed to be ploughed, as often and whensoever they should at any time be let for the use of pasture; which portion to the vicar was then valued at twelve marcs. (fn. 9)
It is valued in the king's books at 61. 13s. 4d. It is now a discharged living, of the clear yearly certified value of forty-five pounds. In 1587 it was valued at thirty pounds, communicants one hundred and eighty. In 1640 it was valued at ninety pounds, the same number of communicants. There was an antient stipend of ten pounds, payable from the parsonage to the vicar, which was augmented with the like sum by archbishop Juxon, anno 15 Charles II. to be paid by the lessee of the parsonage; which sum of twenty pounds continues at this time to be paid yearly by the lesse. There was a yearly pension of 1l. 6s. payable from the vicar of Elmsted to the priory of St. Gregory; which still continues to be paid by him to the archbishop's lessee here.

Report from RCAHMS "Centred at NO 202 534 is a settlement of nine circular stone-walled huts (A - J) within a contemporary field system marked by stone clearance heaps, lynchets, and ruinous walls, which is partly overlaid by walls contemporary with several late rectangular buildings to the E of the huts.
'A' is a "Dalrulzian" hut, measuring 15.0m between the centres of the outer wall, and 8.5m injtrnally, with an ill-defined entrance in the SE. The inner face of contiguous stones is well-preserved. A contemporary wall runs W from the W arc.
'B', 'C', and 'D' are part of an unusual "Dalrulzian" complex which has suffereed mutilation. 'B' is 9.0m internally; 'C', 11.0m internally; and 'D', the best preserved, is 7.0m internally. (See enlargement.)
'E' is a well-preserved "Dalrulzian" type hut 18.5m between outer wall centres and 10.0m internally, with the entrance in the S.
'F' - Only vague traces survive. It appears to have been a "Dalrulzian" hut, 8.0m internally and about 15.0m between outer wall centres. It abuts in the N on to a curving field wall which runs SE to join hut 'G'. 'G' is a "Dalrulzian" hut of similar dimensions as 'F'. No entrance is evident. The centre is partly overlaid by a later rectangular building (5.0m x 3.5m).
'H' is a single-walled hut 10.0m in diameter within a wall 1.4m thick. Occasional outer and inner facing stones are visible. The entrance is not visible but may be obscured by the remains of a probably secondary wall which joins the SE arc.
'J' severely mutilated, is 7.5m between the centres of a wall spread to 2.0m with an ill-defined entrance in the SSW. Traces of an outer wall curving round the N and W arcs suggest that this has been a "Dalrulzian" hut.
Immediately to the SW, and also 20.0m SE of 'J', are two almost identical later rectangular buildings attached to the E arcs of two contemporary sub-circular enclosures measuring about 16.0m in diameter. Within the enclosure to the SW are traces of earlier stonework, which suggests that the enclosure overlies the last fragments of a "Dalrulzian" hut with a possible internal diameter of 9.5m.

The department has been building up a library of design related reference books over the last few years. Pupils are encouraged to make use of these books on a regular basis. The photographs here demonstrate the tremendous wealth of content contained therein.
The sequence has been shot in such a way that the cover of the book is shown first and a few sample pages are included to give the student an idea of the content the book contains. Pupils may then approach staff and request a short term loan.
