A Queen, a Countess and a Layman
The paper offers a reassessment of the patrons involved in the construction of Saint-Hilaire-le-Grand in Poitiers during the 11th century. Three stages are identified. The first, to which Queen Emma of England may have contributed, fell perhaps in the 1020s. The second is that associated with Countess Agnes of Poitou-Aquitaine around 1049. The third followed on and saw the involvement around the 1070s and 1080s of the layman Gautier, a cordwainer…
Edward the Confessor
The life and cult of Edward the Confessor are here fully reappraised. The millennium of Edward the Confessor's birth presents an appropriate occasion for a full-scale, up-to-date reassessment of his life, reign and cult, a reappraisal which is provided in the essays here. After an introduction to the many views of Edward's life, and a reinterpretation of the development of his cult, the volume considers his childhood in England and its influence …

The Ninth-Century Polychrome Decoration at St Mary's Church, Deerhurst
This paper presents the results of a detailed analysis of surviving paintwork on the chancel arch, the carved animal heads and the figurative panel in the west porch at the Anglo-Saxon church of St Mary, Deerhurst, Gloucestershire, UK. The context of the polychromy in relation to the ninth-century fabric of the church is assessed. The detailed results of the technical analysis are presented. The original scheme of painted decoration is described,…
The Vatican Rotunda
The rotunda that stood on the site of the former Circus of Gaius and Nero beside old St Peter's in Rome was first constructed at the beginning of the 3rd century, as demonstrated by archaeological evidence. It was finally demolished only in 1777, and a clear picture of the building prior to this is established from early graphic sources. The rotunda stood over a podium-crypt; it had eight radiating exedrae at the main floor level; and it was surm…

Staged Timber Spires in Carolingian North-East France and Late Anglo-Saxon England
The masonry buildings of the Carolingian period have long been recognised as constituting a definitive stage in the development of West European architecture. Some of the great churches of this period also had elaborate timber constructions associated with them, yet the significance of these has never been fully assessed. This paper examines the evidence for a key group of buildings in North-East France and suggests that their timber spires forme…
Architecture of the Anglosaxon Church, 735 to 870
There has for too long been an assumption, sometimes tacit and sometimes explicit, that the period from the middle of the eighth century to the latter part of the ninth formed something of an hiatus in Anglo-Saxon architecture. This view has arisen to some extent, no doubt, because of the difficulty of establishing firm dates in this period for any large number of surviving buildings. But it has arisen also, I believe, because there has been no c…

A ‘Winchester School’ wall-painting at Nether Wallop, Hampshire
A wall-painting at Nether Wallop church, Hampshire (SU303365), recently conserved, is here discussed and related to its architectural context. Previously thought to be of the thirteenth century, it is for the first time attributed to the ‘Winchester School’ of late Anglo-Saxon art, and a late-tenth-to-early-eleventh-century date is suggested for it
