Summary
[edit]DescriptionHawton, All Saints' church interior.jpg |
English: Originally there were two churches in Horton, as recorded in the Domesday survey. There is no evidence of these churches surviving. The earliest part of today's church is the north wall of the nave and the arcades which dates from the thirteenth century.
The chancel was built around 1320 by Sir Robert de Compton who is probably buried in the founders tomb on the north wall of the chancel although this is unlikely to be the original position. The clerestory and tower were added in the fifteenth century by Sir Thomas Molyneaux, and the original outline of the roof can still be seen. The most stunning part of the chancel are the carvings consisting of the founder's tomb, Easter Sepulchre, piscina and sedilia. There is also a doorway to a north Chapel which no longer exists, although a squint can still be seen. The Easter Sepulchre is probably one of the finest in the country, with nearby Heckington in Lincolnshire as a contender. The doorway, founders tomb, and Easter Sepulchre are all part of one composition, the Easter Sepulchre consisting of a tableau with four Roman soldiers asleep at the base. Above is Christ rising from the tomb and the three Maries, and is topped with a depiction of the Ascension, all complete with multiple mythological beasts and whimsical carvings. Unfortunately most of the heads have been defaced by iconoclasts long ago. The south side of the chancel has a similarly carved sedilia and piscina, the sedilia has many carvings of faces and animals, route and foliage, and a row of Saints above. There is a pelican in her piety, and a depiction of men cutting grapes. Originally the carvings were hidden under layers of plaster and whitewash and were only rediscovered in 1843 when the church was restored. It is thought that the masons responsible for this magnificent work may also have worked at Southwell Minster and is Heckington. The west door of the church dates from the late fifteenth century with carvings on the door and in the spandrels above featuring the arms of the Molyneaux family. |
