Reverend Vincent Nichols Archbishop of Westminster; The Lessons

Officiant and the Choir sang The Litany, for the Commemoration of the
Carthusian Martyrs. Many robed Anglican, Roman Catholic and Methodist
Clergy assembled at the Martyrs’ Memorial which is placed on the remaining
East Wall of the Priory Church in Chapel Court. There the Master of Charterhouse
read the Passion of the Carthusian Martyrs based on the accounts of Dom
Maurice Chauncey (1570); the Preacher officiated. The Brothers of Charterhouse
placed red roses in a model of a Tyburn Tree placed in front of the recently
restored Martyrs’ Memorial as the names of the Martyrs were read out.
The music for the service was provided by the Thomas Sutton Singers, directed
by Richard Stevens with Graham Matthews organ. The servers were
from the Parish of St Paul, Winchmore Hill.
Also present were The Reverend Canon Anthony Ball representing the
Archbishop of Canterbury; The Right Reverend George Stack Archbishop-elect

Heraldic History of Charterhouse
Mr
Roland Symons, Honorary Secretary of the White Lion Society, has very
kindly illustrated the history of Charterhouse, most skilfully, with beautiful
illustrations of twenty-three arms in colour. The number by each of the
arms refers to the reference chart. In the New Year copies will be available
for purchase. We are most grateful to Mr Symons for this unique contribution
to our list of publications.
Restoration of the Tomb of Thomas Sutton Founder
The magnificent early seventeenth century tomb in which the founder of
Charterhouse was finally laid to rest on 12 December 1614 - three years
after he died on the same day - has been restored beautifully by Susan
Lee and Nigel Leaney, conservators from Lincoln. The project was supervised
by Dr Donald Buttress, church architect and a Governor of Sutton’s Hospital,
sometime Surveyor of the Fabric of Westminster Abbey.
The tomb was constructed in a specially created aisle of the Chapel of
Sutton’s Hospital, to the north of the main aisle, by Edmund Kinsman,
Nicholas Stone and Nicholas Johnson. The recumbent effigy of Thomas Sutton,
1532-1611, lies behind the railings made by William Shawe in 1615.

Launch of Charterhouse Art and The Oil Paintings of Charterhouse
by Stanley Underhill Brother of Charterhouse
with the assistance of Richard Norman
and Brian Newble Brother and Photographer of Charterhouse
|
|
|
Charterhouse Art is a catalogue of all the paintings, prints, watercolours and photographs which adorn the walls of Sutton’s Hospital, over 500 of them! They tell the history of a remarkable institution and it is excellent that they are now collected together with notes about the artists and presented as they are arranged in the various spaces of Charterhouse.
The Oil Paintings of Charterhouse is an extract of Charterhouse Art which itemises the thirty-five oil paintings – some from the 17th Century and others more recent.
About eighty invited guests attended the launch at which Stanley Underhill gave a presentation describing the project with illustrations of some of the exhibits. Afterwards, Mr William Shand, former Governor of Charterhouse and Chairman of the Heritage Sub-Committee, proposed a vote of thanks.
