Норманская церковь Святого Иоанна Крестителя в Адель , Лидс , Западный Йоркшир , Англия, была названа Иоанна в Адель, Англия». «Англией, в основном нормандской церкви Святого [ 1 ] Он наиболее заметен своим великолепным южным дверным проемом с окружающей резьбой и очень вырезанной нормандской аркой. Существует также копия кольца заповедника 13-го века на внешней стороне южной двери, первоначальное, к сожалению, было украдено в 2002 году. Церковь является активной англиканской приходской церковью в архидиаконрии Лидса и епархии Лидса .
История
[ редактировать ]Церковь имеет нормандское происхождение, которое было построено между 1150 и 1170 годами. Изменения были внесены в 14 и 16 веках. West Gable и Bellcote были построены между 1838 и 1839 годами Р.Д. Чантреллом , который также восстановил крышу отклета в 1843 году, в то время как крыша нефа была восстановлена в 1879 году. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] Бабушка и дедушка по отцовской линии герцогини Кембриджской женились в церкви Адель в декабре 1946 года. [ 4 ]
The church was Grade I listed on 26 September 1963; the sundial, a mounting block and several memorials are Grade II listed.
Architecture
[edit]Exterior
[edit]

The small two-cell church has a nave and chancel with a lower roof. The roofline was lowered in the medieval period (since restored) and some larger windows inserted (several since removed), but otherwise it is a remarkably intact survival from the Norman period without additions of later aisle or transepts, the only substantial later structures being a 19th-century belfry, plus a vestry on the north side of the chancel. Its most notable external feature is a magnificent Norman doorway on the south side with four or more levels of elaborately carved arches. In the gable are weathered relief of Christ in majesty and several symbols including the lamb and flag, the cross and the sun and moon. The boarded door had iron studs and a 13th-century bronze sanctuary ring (door knocker) depicting a monster swallowing a man that was replaced by a replica after the original was stolen in 2002.[2] The church has small Norman round windows and a flat-headed 14th-century decorated window in the nave; a further such window in the chancel was removed in the 1879 restoration and its appearance returned to the original Norman style. The south wall of the chancel has a small priests' doorway. The vestry is connected by a short passage to the north-west side of the church with an arched doorway and trefoil window, while the vestry has a three-light east window.[5] The three small, Norman-style windows in the east end wall of the chancel were re-inserted in the nineteenth century, having previously been blocked up and partly replaced by a single window in the decorated style dating from 1681, as illustrated here. The north and south walls are decorated with 81 corbels and the chancel arch has 37 grotesque beakheads. The bellcote dates from 1839.[6]
Interior
[edit]The chancel arch dates from 1160 to 1170, its carved capitals show the baptism of Christ, the crucifixion, a centaur with bow and a horseman with lance. The octagonal font at the west end is possibly the original having been found in the churchyard in 1859. A carved oak canopy by Eric Gill from 1921 depicts the crucifixion, six of the sacraments and a Christian arriving in heaven. The oak pulpit with panels carved in linenfold style was presented by EW Beckett of Kirkstall Grange in memory of his wife who died in 1891. The stained glass is by Henry Gyles of York.[7]
Organisation
[edit]The church hall is in the old stables.[8] St John the Baptist Church of England Primary School is on Long Causeway.[9]
