Restoration

NOTES: A church existed on this site from 800 and the nave retains some Saxon features. The Normans extended it and built the central tower and chancel. The church was restored by Cambridge Camden Society on 1841, and by Richard C. Carpenter in 1854.

NOTES: Construction on this large parish church began in Norman style in the 13th and was completed with Gothic additions in the 15th century. It was extensively restored in 1852.

NOTES: This church, one of the four remaining round churches in England, dates from c.1130. It was largely rebuilt in the 15th and extensively restored by Salvin in 1842.

NOTES: The roof was hidden by a barrel-vaulted plaster ceiling until it was uncovered during restoration in 1880. The angels on the hammer-beams were added in 1892.

NOTES: This church was designed by J S Adler in 1898 and built in 1900-1902. It was restored following damage during World War II by Caroe & Partners.

NOTES: The church was founded by the Knights Templar in the reign of Henry II upon the model of the Holy Sepulchre, Jerusalem. The Transitional style church was consecrated in 1185 by Heraclius, Patriarch of Jerusalem. The church and most of the Temple enclave was severely damaged by incendiary bombs during the Blitz of 1941. However, the walls were left intact and enough fragments remained for the church to be restored in complete Early Gothic style after World War II. The nave and choir was rededicated in 1954, and the Round, the original nave, in 1958.
