precincts of St. Mary's Church in Birkenhead, Cheshire, rise the cranes and
sheds of Cammell Laird, the shipbuilders. In the centre background can be seen
the prow of a ship taking shape. The churchyard has been bought by Cammell
Laird for the construction of a new dry-dock. </span></div>

of transformation into a dry-dock. St. Mary's is a parish church in Birkenhead,
on the Wirral Peninsula opposite Liverpool. Just beyond the precincts lie the
workshops, docks and cranes of the busy shipyards of Cammell Laird. The site of
the church has been a place of worship for hundreds of years and about 1,900
people have been buried in the churchyard since 1719. The area involved is
3,100 square yards, about two-thirds of the churchyard. This land has been acquired
from the church authorities for Cammell Laird under a compulsory purchase order
of the Birkenhead Corporation, for the construction of a dry-dock which will be
able to accommodate some of the biggest oil tankers afloat. Workmen wearing
special clothing and supervised by medical and ecclesiastical officials will
undertake the task of disinterring and removing the remains of the buried dead.
These will be reinterred in a neighboring cemetery. St. Mary's Church was
consecrated in 1821, but the grounds contain the ruins of a priory which was
founded in the middle of the twelfth century by Benedictine monks. This foundation
survived 400 years, to be dissolved by Henry VIII at the Reformation. The ruins
will not be displaced in the construction of the shipyard.</span>Colin D Gronowhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11914981974459819307noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34797157.post-14077101691489913532014-02-17T03:36:00.000-08:002014-02-17T03:36:02.789-08:00Restoration of St. Mary's Church 1882<!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

Canon Knox was incumbent for upwards of half a century, will be reopened

both morning and evening by the Bishop of Sodor and Man.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;">
<span lang="EN-GB"><span style="mso-tab-count: 1;"> </span>In carrying out the alterations, the
intention has been to restore the church as far as possible to the form
originally intended by the architect, the late Mr. Rickman; and at the same
time to increase the comfort of the congregation, render the church in every
way suitable for divine worship, and place the parish church of Saint Mary in
the position it ought to occupy as the oldest ad most important church in the
borough. Before describing the character of the alterations, it may be
interesting to give a brief account of the appearance of the church before the
work was commenced. There were three large galleries, occupying the whole of
the north and south transepts and the west end of the church. These much
interfered with the comfort of the congregation sitting beneath, and, reaching
nearly up to the ceiling, the back seats were most incommodious. There was no
centre isle, and all view of the communion table was blocked up by the lofty
old-fashioned “three-decker” arrangement standing in the centre of the church.
The pews were old-fashioned, high, and proportionately uncomfortable. The organ
stood in the western gallery, and as it almost touched the ceiling much of the
sound was lost. The mode of warming the church was very inefficient, and had to
be supplemented by a large stove, the flue from which was doing much mischief. The
church was badly lighted, and there was no proper system of ventilation or
drainage. In consequence of the want of the latter, much of the flooring had
become rotten and dangerous from the rain-water which was allowed to percolate
to the foundations. It is stated in “Gore's Directory” that the church had seat
room for 15,000. This calculation would only give at the utmost a space of 18
inches for each person, being considerably less than the proper amount; indeed,
if the church did really hold that number, it must have been at a very
considerable sacrifice of comfort, particularly on Sunday evenings, when the
gas was lighted. The church as originally designed by the architect had no
galleries in the transepts, and these were subsequently added in consequence of
the rapid increase of the parish. Assuming that the church as originally
designed would accommodate about 1000, it is manifest that to increase that
number by 500 without any addition to the size of the church could only be
effected by a diminution of the cubical contents of air allowed for each
person. The following is a brief description of the most important alterations
that have been made:- The height of the church has been increased by lowering
the floor 15 inches, it being found impracticable to alter the height of the
ceiling. The whole of the galleries to the north and south transepts have been
removed. The space occupied by the staircases and vestibules has been added to
the area of the church; the front of the western gallery has been set back
2ft., the organ removed to a new organ chamber built on the north side of the
chancel, and the seats entirely rearranged. All the pews have been
reconstructed, so as to give greater comfort to the congregation. A centre
aisle has been formed, and the pulpit re-erected at the north-east corner of
the chancel. By this arrangement the preacher is in full view of every seat in
the church. The chancel has been raised 18in. above the floor of the church,
with stalls for the clergy and choir. Vestries for clergy and choir have been
built on the south side of the chancel, and on the north side an organ chamber,
with heating vault underneath, the church being thoroughly warmed by hot air.
The lighting is done partly by four Siemens' patent regenerative gas burners,
supplemented by gas brackets, and the ventilation has been considerably
improved. The passages and aisles are laid with Wharain's patent wood block
flooring; the chancel and baptistery (late vestry) being laid with ornamental
encaustic tile paving; the apse with mosaic tile pavement, the latter being
chiefly made in Liverpool. The windows in the apse and baptistery are filled
with stained glass of an ornamental character. The screen between chancel and
vestry and new windows being also fitted with lead lights. The main contract
for the alterations has been carried out by Mesars. E. Legge, Son, and Co., of
Birkenhead; the tiling and mosaic by Mr. Leadly Brown, of Liverpool; the
stained glass by Mesars, Campbell, Smith and Campbell, of London; the ornamental
glass by Mesars, Forrest and Son, of Liverpool; the whole being carried out
under the superintendence of Mesars, Aldridge and Deacon, architects,
Liverpool. The necessary funds were partly raised by subscription, supplemented
by the munificent liberality of Mr. W. Laird, the mayor of Birkenhead, and the
Laird family. In addition to the foregoing works, extensive repairs are being
done to the structure, and considerable alterations are proposed to be made in
the graveyard in order to render the same more attractive and rescue it from
its present neglected condition, for which funds are much needed.</span></div>

The Chapter house at the priory contains some interesting gravestones relating to the late Medieval period. The most important of which is that of Thomas Rayneford, Prior of Birkenhead. The original inscription (fig1.) reads 'Hic jacet Thomas Rayneford quondam bonus prior huis loci qui obiit viiio Maii anno domini mmo cccclxxiiio cuis anime propicietur Deus' meaning: Here lieth Thomas Rayneford a former worthy prior of this house who died on the 8th of May in the year of our Lord 1473, may God be gracious to his soul!.<br />

In 1818 the stone was removed from its original resting place and inserted into the outside wall of the chapter house, as can be seen in the engraving in (fig.2). The stone was re-sited again in 1896 and finally in 1913 is was set in the Sanctuary of the Chapter House to the right of the alter. Another tombstone of a similar period can be seen to the side of the priors stone (fig.3) this stone is without text, just the ancient carved patterns giving a glimpse into its true meaning.<br />

In the North wall of the Chapter house is another fifteenth century five-light window which is now filled with old stained glass. The other window at the west end of the north wall was originally Norman, but was changed to a pointed arch doorway, then in 1860 was filled with an old fourteenth century window. An ancient tombstone from the priory graveyard was used for its lintel on the inside, its inscription now hidden from our sight.(fig.4.)<br />

Restoration of the Priory was took up by Edward W. Cox, who devoted much time to the Priory and produced conjectured drawings and plans, some of which are not now considered accurate. However, such was the interest generated by these scholars, that the few hundred pounds required to buy the ruins and the freehold of the site was raised, and the corporation of Birkenhead was persuaded to take responsibility for them in 1896. E.W. Cox took over superintendence of restoration work in the following year, carried out by the Chester stone masons, Haswell & Son. A photographic survey of the work completed is the first comprehensive such study of the site, and shows details like the numbering, stone by stone, of the Guest Hall's south wall, which had to be taken down and completely rebuilt. The work was completed on 2 April 1898 . <br />

Canon Knox, it is well known, was vicar of St. Mary's for about half a century, and during his long residence in Birkenhead his name was closely associated with every movement calculated to promote the social, moral, and religious condition of the inhabitants. Since his decease the church and burial ground have been restored at a cost of upwards of £3000, and the adjoining schools in Priory-Street have also been greatly enlarged. The whole of this Work was undertaken and completed as a "Knox memorial," and the Restoration Committee (of which Mr. William Laird was chairman) determined still further to commemorate the memory of their old and revered pastor by the erection of a monument in the church in which he had ministered so long and successfully. This latter work has been executed by Messrs, Earp, Son, and Hobbs, London and Manchester, from the design of Mr. Charles Aldridge, architect, Liverpool, from whose plans the restoration of the sacred edifice was also carried out. The tablet, which is of polished marble and alabaster, is of large dimensions, and very artistically designed, and has sculptured on the upper portion of it a capital likeness of Canon Knox as he appeared a year or two before his-death. On each side of the tablet there is the coat-of-arras of the Rev. Canon Knox and of Mrs. Knox, and underneath it the following inscription in old English characters:<br /><br />"In memory of the Rev ANDREW KNOX, B.A.,Vicar of Birkenhead and Honorary Canon of Chester Cathedral, and. of his wife Katherine, this tablet is erected. Andrew Knox came to Birkenhead, as curate in charge of St. Mary's, in 1828 ; was appointed incumbent in 1834, and laboured here for 53 years. He found in his wife a loving and devoted helper. She fell asleep in Jesus May 29, 1868, aged 69 years. During his incumbency the rural township of Birkenhead was incorporated with Tranmere, Oxton, and part of Bebington first as a parliamentary, then as a municipal borough. with a population of 80,000. The public spirit and Christian charity with which he promoted everything tending to the advancement of his fellow-townsmen, as well as the extension of churches and schools, won for him the respect and affection of all classes. A firm friend, ready to advise and willing to sympathise, he lived his life truly, did his work thoroughly, and now he rests in. peace. 'With long life will I satisfy him, and show him my salvation!—Psalm.<br />xci., 16." The tablet also states that the Rey.Canon Knox was born on the 8th July, 1797 ; that<br />he was vicar of Birkenhead from 1834 to 1881 and that he died on the 12th October, 1881.<br /><br /><span style="font-size:85%;">"Reported in the Liverpool Mercury, Saturday November 17th 1883, Issue 11185"</span><br /><br /></div>Colin D Gronowhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11914981974459819307noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34797157.post-3326905110606424362012-01-11T01:41:00.000-08:002012-01-11T01:47:31.601-08:00<div style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiykvZw2WFa-V7G20bFegXs1vLn8iaUi4YUrh2Nqx5kpoVl4gmPuyPQaZtZBhTMLHuPr8-Ktr4t0GaMk4umg484DM0mBjAgD18LQDLKEJNusM26y2qANDa13cWZg-LTEZsrpw_bNQ/s1600/web.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 245px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiykvZw2WFa-V7G20bFegXs1vLn8iaUi4YUrh2Nqx5kpoVl4gmPuyPQaZtZBhTMLHuPr8-Ktr4t0GaMk4umg484DM0mBjAgD18LQDLKEJNusM26y2qANDa13cWZg-LTEZsrpw_bNQ/s400/web.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5696307449443651298" border="0" /></a></div><div style="text-align: center;">"The Remains of Birkenhead Priory, Wirral"<br />by Harold Hopps.<br />Showing the Church of St. Mary in the background.<br /><span style="font-size:85%;">picture in the collection of the 'Williamson Art Gallery & Museum'</span><br /></div>Colin D Gronowhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11914981974459819307noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34797157.post-705231455597190202011-11-17T03:47:00.000-08:002011-11-17T03:51:41.433-08:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDiVLEKLgZPnqYPHANPqpN9CnSyWpexqdeC4emmeqopLrQ9NQPsBUBoEdopK_c5XiUdpjXnqLEF3hOw63vXzcGSsqmiOpXIoVdKJfZzNobN2lByoyE1sH4W-u_wewBd1n9g_1uMw/s1600/FotoFlexer_Photo4.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 128px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjDiVLEKLgZPnqYPHANPqpN9CnSyWpexqdeC4emmeqopLrQ9NQPsBUBoEdopK_c5XiUdpjXnqLEF3hOw63vXzcGSsqmiOpXIoVdKJfZzNobN2lByoyE1sH4W-u_wewBd1n9g_1uMw/s320/FotoFlexer_Photo4.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5675930064038091154" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size:130%;">Baptisms, Marriages & Burials in St.Mary's Church Birkenhead.</span><br /><br />If anyone requires any research into the above parish registers I'm more than happy to check them for you, contact me via the comments pages or email me at the address given in the side-bar.<br /></div>Colin D Gronowhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11914981974459819307noreply@blogger.com25tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34797157.post-14175328697067848172011-06-28T06:34:00.000-07:002011-06-28T06:38:31.060-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijotKlVFfKoTpbbreX_iKdC_RnK24kp9Y_ZSVyZc5x7AV9Wv4wUKd2695qKe2wzm5vzhM00-PA4W21-5GwE14u_j8ii6pJehFwn5SmXLqTKfOVSZLUuZeOGudWmYHOJg0326X58Q/s1600/GYRabbitt.png"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 160px; height: 160px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijotKlVFfKoTpbbreX_iKdC_RnK24kp9Y_ZSVyZc5x7AV9Wv4wUKd2695qKe2wzm5vzhM00-PA4W21-5GwE14u_j8ii6pJehFwn5SmXLqTKfOVSZLUuZeOGudWmYHOJg0326X58Q/s320/GYRabbitt.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5623263689500054754" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;">I am pleased to say I have just become member of<br /> <span style="font-size:130%;">"The Association of Graveyard Rabbits"</span><br /> <span style="font-size:100%;"><br /> </span><span style="font-size:100%;">The Association was named for Frank Lebby Stanton's poem, The Graveyard Rabbit.

These traits are the motivation of the human beings interested in this group.</span><br /> <br />My association is mainly for my work on St. Mary's Church Monumental Inscriptions.

Both died of consumption and their mother, already a widow, erected this monument. Her second husband lived in Cheltenham, which explains the use of the most prolific firm of sculptors in that town. </p> <p style="text-align: justify;">Above the inscription a grieving maiden is shown leaning against a broken column and pointing towards tow fragments which have toppled from it. The broken column came to be used on countless 19th century monuments as a general symbol of death, but here it retains its original precise meaning, the breaking off of a family’s line of descent by the death of its only children. the inscription refers to the deceased being buried in ‘the Abbey chapel yard adjoining this church’. <span style="font-style: italic;font-size:85%;" >(Sculptor George Lewis of Cheltenham).</span></p><span style="font-size:78%;">Text taken from 'The Oratory', a guide to the building and its monuments, Joseph Sharples, 1991.</span>Colin D
