The Church of the Resurrection – better known as the Holy Sepulchre – is built in Jerusalem and consecrated on 13 September, 335. Standing atop the reputed burial site of Jesus, the church became a prominent Christian landmark drawing increasing numbers of pilgrims over the centuries. The First Crusade is called in 1095, partly to ensure continued access by pilgrims to the Holy Sepulchre. #jerusalem and the Church of the Holy Sepulchre fall to the crusaders in July 1099. Churches with a round shape or dedicated to the Holy Sepulchre appear across western Europe in the wake of the First Crusade, often built by returning crusaders or pilgrims. The first example in England is built c.1100 in Northampton, probably influenced by the Earl of Northampton, Simon de Senlis, a crusader. Modelled on the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, the Round Church in #cambridge is founded between 1115 and 1131 by ‘the fraternity of the Holy Sepulchre’ and ‘in honour of God and the holy Sepulchre’. No other record of this mysterious fraternity exists, and its exact purpose remains unknown. (à The Round Church) https://www.instagram.com/p/CpKSLqwLFdD/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Church of the Holy Sepulchre in Cambridge, built by the Templars around 1130. Its round shape was chosen to be reminiscent of the Holy Sepulchre in Jerusalem.

Major Monteith Mausoleum. 

This impressive Mausoleum in the Glasgow Necropolis is the final resting place of two brothers Major Archibald Douglas Monteath who died in 1842, and James Monteath Douglas who passed in 1850.

Monteath served in the East India Company. Allegedly, Monteath made his fortune when an elephant carrying precious gems belonging to a Maharajah was captured and 'relieved' of its load by him, which was just the norm for the British empire. 

When he died £1,000 was left to build his monument. There was a shortfall, however the Merchants' House gifted the extra land needed and this spectacular mausoleum was built.

Based on the Knight Templar  Church of the Holy Sepulchre, experts dispute whether it is modelled on the Jerusalem Church or possibly their Cambridge Church. The Mausoleum is a Neo-Norman rotunda, designed by David Cousin, is 30ft in diameter. What makes the Mausoleum so special includes the faces of 48 individual Dwar Palas who guard the Mausoleum around the doorway and each niched window, and which are common in Indian and Hindu temples, palaces and forts.

To the chief Musician upon Nehiloth, A Psalm of David.

1 Give ear to my words, O Lord, Consider my meditation.

2 Hearken unto the voice of my cry, my King, and my God: For unto thee will I pray.

3 My voice shalt thou hear in the morning, O Lord; In the morning will I direct my prayer unto thee, and will look up.

4 For thou art not a God that hath pleasure in wickedness: Neither shall evil dwell with thee.

5 The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: Thou hatest all workers of iniquity.

6 Thou shalt destroy them that speak leasing: The Lord will abhor the bloody and deceitful man.

7 But as for me, I will come into thy house in the multitude of thy mercy: And in thy fear will I worship toward thy holy temple.

8 Lead me, O Lord, in thy righteousness because of mine enemies; Make thy way straight before my face.

9 For there is no faithfulness in their mouth; Their inward part is very wickedness; Their throat is an open sepulchre; They flatter with their tongue.

10 Destroy thou them, O God; Let them fall by their own counsels; Cast them out in the multitude of their transgressions; For they have rebelled against thee.

11 But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: Let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: Let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee.

12 For thou, Lord, wilt bless the righteous; With favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield. — Psalm 5 | The Cambridge Paragraph Bible of the Authorized English Version (CAMB) The Cambridge Paragraph Bible of the Authorized English Version, by Scrivener, Frederick Henry Ambrose, 1813-1891.

Hi Dina I was wondering if you could explain how engagements are counted. For example when William was in Jordan/Palestine/Israel does the whole days events count as one engagement? Or is it that each new place he goes to on that day count as an engagement? I hope I made this question as clear as possible

Of course!! So the Court Circular is where official engagements are logged. The Times is the official count but there is also one online on the royal family website. Any time there is a separate entry or a change in location, there is another engagement. So you’ll see CC entries for meetings and each new meeting with a different person or organization is another engagement. On tour, every new location or event is a new engagement. 

So for example, here are William’s entries into the CC on June 28th:

The Duke of Cambridge today carried out the following engagements in Israel and the Occupied Palestinian Territories.

His Royal Highness this morning visited the Viewing Point at the Mount of Olives, Jerusalem.

The Duke of Cambridge afterwards visited the Church of St. Mary Magdalene near the Garden of Gethsemane, Jerusalem.

His Royal Highness later visited Haram al-Sharif, Old City of Jerusalem, Jerusalem.

The Duke of Cambridge subsequently visited the Western Wall, Old City of Jerusalem.

His Royal Highness afterwards visited the Muristan, Muristan Street, next to the Lutheran Church of the Redeemer, Old City of Jerusalem.

The Duke of Cambridge this afternoon visited the Church of the Holy Sepulchre, St. Helena Road, Christian Quarter, Old City of Jerusalem.

His Royal Highness this evening arrived at Royal Air Force Brize Norton from Israel.

Sir David Manning, Mr. Miguel Head and Mr. Jason Knauf were in attendance.

If we count that out, that’s 6 engagements. (i bolded each engagement for you)

Sometimes you’ll have two engagements in one entry. For example, here is an entry for Harry on June 23rd:

The Duke of Sussex, Patron, Sentebale, today visited Phelisanong Children's Centre and subsequently a project in Leribe, Lesotho.’

That counts as two different engagements because the location changed. 

About the meetings thing, if they’re hosting different meetings (i.e met person A then person B) it’s more than one engagement. But meeting more than one person at the same time is one engagement. For example, this entry for Harry from June 8th is one engagement because he met both people at the same time:

The Duke of Sussex, Captain General, Royal Marines, this afternoon received Lieutenant General Sir James Dutton upon relinquishing his appointment as Representative Colonel Commandant and Major General Jeffrey Mason upon assuming the appointment.

A tell tale sign of one entry being more than one engagement is the use of the word “subsequently”.

Does that make sense? I hope I explained it well!

186 Gwydir Street

The David Parr house is a new discovery for Cambridge. The exterior was very shabby and the interior was a mystery to most of the world, but it is highly decorated in the Arts & Crafts style. The house was owned by David Parr, who worked for F. R. Leach & Sons. 

The company Leach & Sons were mostly employed in Cambridge restoring and painting churches and the university. Most noted is the work at All Saints Church, Jesus Lane, Cambridge in 1870 for George Frederick Bodley. William Morris was previously employing Leach at Jesus Chapel as early as 1866. 

  Jesus College Chapel, Cambridge. William Morris Designed Ceiling. Executed by F.R.Leach & Sons

After working as Morris's executant painter at Jesus College and for Bodley and Kempe at All Saints' F.R.Leach developed a flourishing practice as a decorative artist on his own, and also branched out into the design of stained glass. Further research is needed to establish the complete corpus of his work, but during the 1870s and 1880s he carried out schemes of decoration in the Churches of St Clement, St Edward, Holy Sepulchre and St Michael. Painted work inside Scott’s new Master’s Lodge at St John’s College is also ascribed to him. In St Michael's, he worked under the younger Gilbert Scott to decorate the chancel arcades and east wall in 1874. Four years later he also painted the nave and designed stained glass for the west window. The firm was continued by his son, Barnett Leach, at the original premises of 36-37 City Road, until well into the middle of this century. †

 Interior of All Saints Church, Jesus Lane, Cambridge. Designed by George Frederick Bodley and executed by F. R. Leach and Sons.

We may state that the roof of the nave has been richly decorated with black monograms of the Holy Name, and varied scroll work in red colour on the plaster ground... Great praise must be given to Mr F. R. Leach, our fellow-townsman, who is carrying out these works, for it is no small credit these days to be able to work out such details in free hand drawing. . . and we rejoice that so important a step in the education of the Art workman should be so successfully illustrated in Cambridge. †

My memories with the Parr house don’t factor him at all, but I do remember Mrs Palmer. The shop that I have my artworks in is just over the road from 186 Gwydir Street and I would see her walking up and down the road with her walking stick and large coat. Elsie Palmer came to Gwydir St in 1927 aged 12 to look after her grandmother, David Parr’s wife. She lived there for 85 years and inherited the house, got married and had a family within this gothic revival interior. 

When she died the property was preserved and has been in the process of being cleaned and restored. As when the house was opened I wasn’t allowed to take photographs inside all of the photos are scavenged from other people who could.
