Howden - Howden Minster
The Minster Church of St Peter and
St Paul |
 |
Howden is a pleasant East Riding town; there
is free town limited street parking and several pay and display
long term car parks with reasonable charges.
The church is open during normal hours and there is no charge
for or restriction on photography.
Howden Minster's foundation dates from Anglo-Saxon times. In
1267 the then Bishop of Durham failed to set up a monastic
community at Howden but a collegiate church was established
instead. This was dissolved by Edward VI in1550. In 1693 the choir roof collapsed, follwed by that of
the chapter house in 1750; the latter was reroofed in 1984.
These ruinous parts of the church were taken into the care of
English Heritage in 1971

Hull
- Charterhouse |
 |
Charterhouse
Lane |
This almshouse (and its name) has its
origin in the Carthusian Priory established in 1378 by Michael
de la Pole which stood on the same site to the north of the
walled town of Hull. From the beginning the Priory included a
hospital (in the sense of an almshouse) for 13 poor men and 13
poor women. The Priory and the Hospital were separated in 1383
and the following year the Hospital - now to be known as
God's House of Hull - was established by charter from de la
Pole. The Priory was dissolved during the Dissolution of the
Monasteries and the Hospital (then on the south side of the
lane) were demolished during the Siege of Hull in the War of the
Three Kingdoms (First Civil War)
The Hospital was later rebuilt on the same site and later new
buildings add across the lane and a chapel added.
The Hospital was rebuilt in its present form 1778-80 on the site
of the original Priory. |

The above are not brasses in
the strict sense of the word but rather coffin plates, affixed
to the wall of the Lady Chapel. The family is buried in a vault
below the Chapel where the entrance via a slab with lifting
rings may be seen. The plates were removed from the coffins in
1906 and fixed to the wall to act as memorial brasses as there
were no memorials to indicate who was buried in the vault. |
