词条 | St Andrew's Church, Portland |
释义 |
HistoryIt is believed that the site was once occupied by a Saxon church. Later, Edward the Confessor bestowed Portland to the Benedictine Monks of St. Swithin of Winchester in 1042, who in turn built a new church over the old Saxon foundations in 1100. In 1340 and 1404, French raiders landed at Church Ope Cove and torched St. Andrews, but both times the church was rebuilt.[6] Around 1470–1475 a tower was added and the church was dedicated to St. Andrew. In 1625 a wall was built to shore up the land after a landslip had damaged the church, and threatened the collapse of half the cemetery. Another major landslip in 1665 caused further damage.[7] The church was replaced by St George's Church, built at Reforne between 1754 and 1766, following the Great Southwell Landslip of 1734–35.[2] The church site, which was first excavated by J. Merrick Head in 1898,[3] suffered some bomb damage during World War II.[8] The church ruins were tidied and consolidated by the Portland Field Research Group in 1968–1973, with further conservation and excavation works in 1978–1982.[9] Today, the barest ruins now remain of the church, while some stones are preserved in the garden of Portland Museum.[1] References1. ^1 {{cite web|url=http://www.visitweymouth.co.uk/index.php?resource=396 |title=History and Heritage of Portland in Dorset |publisher=Visitweymouth.co.uk |date= |accessdate=15 November 2012}} {{coord|50.5390|N|2.4292|W|type:landmark_region:GB|display=title}}{{Isle of Portland}}{{DEFAULTSORT:Portland, Saint Andrews Church}}2. ^1 {{cite web|author=Anthony Houghton |url=http://www.strollingguides.co.uk/books/dorset/walks/churchope1.php#.UKUecoa5z1k |title=Church Ope Cove and Penn's Weare - Information & Photographs |publisher=Strolling Guides |date= |accessdate=15 November 2012}} 3. ^1 {{NHLE|num=1205384 |desc=|accessdate=12 February 2013}} 4. ^{{NHLE|num=1205401|desc=|accessdate=28 September 2015}} 5. ^{{NHLE|num=1281853|desc=|accessdate=28 September 2015}} 6. ^{{cite news|date=December 2012|work=Free Portland News}} 7. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.geoffkirby.co.uk/Portland/695710/ |title=Pennsylvania Castle and Church Ope, Portland |publisher=Geoffkirby.co.uk |date=3 April 2003 |accessdate=15 November 2012}} 8. ^{{cite book|last=Morris|first=Stuart|title=Portland Camera|year=1990|publisher=Dovecote Press|isbn=978-0946159796|pages=Photo 14}} 9. ^{{cite web|author=Anthony Houghton |url=http://www.strollingguides.co.uk/workshop/darkroom/galleries/popup.php?refNo=1102281&pageCode=churchope1&subPageCode=standrews&z=m |title=Pop Up |publisher=Strolling Guides |date= |accessdate=23 August 2018}} 4 : Isle of Portland|Church ruins in England|Grade II* listed ruins|Grade II* listed churches in Dorset |
