Architecture of Monaghan Archiseek Ireland Buildings of Ireland Monaghan / Introduction Monaghan formed part of the ancient territory of Oriel, and was known as the MacMahon country because of the dominance of that powerful clan. The name derives from a diminutive plural form of the Irish word muine meaning "brake" (a thickly overgrown area) or sometimes "hillock". The county council's preferred interpretation is "land of the little hills", a reference to the numerous drumlins in the area. From the 13th to the 16th century the MacMahon family controlled Monaghan, but in 1589 control passed to the British crown. Monaghan is in the traditional province of Ulster in northeastern Ireland bordered on the northwest, north, and northeast by Northern Ireland and on the southeast, south, and southwest by counties Louth, Meath, and Cavan.

Russian Church Architecture Russian Church Architecture Kievan Rus was converted to Christianity in 988, and in Kiev, its dominant political and cultural centre, mosaics, which date from about 1045, were the work of Byzantine craftsmen. Other Byzantine artists and artisans worked intermittently in the area from that time onward, so that Russian art as a whole was founded on a Byzantine basis. Architecture and icon painting grew up as important independent arts, both having their beginnings during this period. From Kiev the Byzantine style of architecture soon spread throughout the principalities of Novgorod and Vladimir-Suzdal. The emphasis of the Byzantine church on the physical splendour of its edifices was a cardinal factor in determining the characteristics of Russian ecclesiastical architecture. Everything connected with the design and decoration of the new churches followed the Byzantine pattern; and the standard scheme of the Greek churchthe cross inscribed in a rectangle and the dome supported on piers or on pendentivesbecame the accepted type for Orthodox churches. The design and support of the central dome or cupola, together with the number and disposition of the subsidiary cupolas, remained for a long time the principal theme of Russian architecture. The main monuments of Kiev were the Church of the Tithes (989-996), the Cathedral of St. Sophia (1037), and the Church of the Assumption in the Monastery of the Caves (1073-78). All of these churches were built in the Byzantine tradition, though certain influences from Bulgaria, Georgia, and Armenia can be discerned. The Cathedral of St. Sophia is the only structure of this period that still stands and retains, at least in the interior, something of its original form. The central part of the cathedral was in the form of a Greek cross. The nave and four aisles terminated in semicircular apses, and it had 13 cupolas (symbolizing Christ and his Apostles). It was reconstructed and enlarged at the end of the 17th century, and it was later obscured by additional bays and stories to its lateral galleries, a new tower, and many bizarre Baroque cupolas. Only five apses and the central interior portion survive from the 11th century.

28. OLD ARCHITECTURE IN MACEDONIA An illustrated history from Cyber Macedonia from the sixth to the nineteenth centuries, including churches, monasteries and houses. http://www.cybermacedonia.com/architeo.html

OLD ARCHITECTURE IN MACEDONIA Following the creative architectural work in Macedonia, a continuity of intensive production was marked by socio-political, economic, and cultural conditions. In the course of the settlement in Macedonia territory, during the sixth and part of the seventh century, architectural work in comparison with the previous, later ancient period decrease, was influenced by their preparation for new conditions of living in a milieu with a rather developed artistic tradition. In the course of the second half of the ninth century (after the conversion into Christianity), architectural activity began in earnest particularly during the time of Bishop's Kliment and Naum, the pupils of Kiril and Metodij, as well as during Samuel. The main centres were in the region of Lake Ohrid and Prespa. Kliment built the monastery of St. Pantelemon in Ohrid (893) in the shape of a trikonchos, and its ruins were discovered in the foundations of the Imaret mosque. Several years later, Naum erected the church of St.Arangel, on the left bank of lake Ohrid. Also in trikonchos shape and its foundation have been excavated under the present - day church of St. Naum. St. Arangel's church dates from the Samuel's period (about 980) built on the island of the same name in Mala Prespa (Small Prespa), as well as the church of St. Sofia, renovated in the time of Archbishop Lean (1037-56). Its shape is the oriental three-nave basilica with "transept" complemented with two storeys "exnartex" (1313/14). The present shape dates from the Turkish period, when it was transformed into a mosque. Several churches were erected in that time such as St. Leontie in Vodori (the western church), and the Virgin Mary of Eleusa in Veljusi. Mentioned for the first time in 1085, both churches in the Strumica region as well as the church in Drenova near Kavadarci.

31. Purbeck Saxon Churches Illustrated article about the church's history and architecture. http://www.colinfparsons.btinternet.co.uk/twinp/colhome/PurbSaxon/worth-matraver

Saxon Churches from the Isle of Purbeck 2. St Nicholas, Worth Matravers St Nicholas, Worth Matravers is dated by Simon Jenkins (2000, p.166) as " The structure is Norman ", whilst later on (p.167) he states " The interior, though much restored, retains the proportions of the 12th century structure ." I was initially misled by these statements, into only seeing the Norman features, and it was only just before we were going to leave, did we walk round the whole building. It was thus with some surprise that I then saw in the south nave wall, the clear outline of a typical saxon door, which has been subsequently filled in with a more regular ashlar stone. For comparison I show a saxon doorway from St. Mary's Deerhurst, Gloucestershire (Jenkins, 2000, p.211). This prompted me to have a closer look at the overall structure, and immediately I saw very similar, if not identical features to those seen in St. Nicholas, Studland. That is, the almost total external structure is made up of a rubble type construction. Only the local areas round inserted doors and buttresses, show regular well cut and squared ashlar. It is obvious to me, that almost the whole existing outline structure is Saxon and that the Normans merely retrofitted a new interior, strengthened it with buttresses, inserted new doors and added a new roof, tied to an ashlar course with gargoyle decorated corbels. I rather wishfully thought I had made an original discovery, until I got home and read the account by W.M. Hardy (1891) and found that I had been pre-empted by more than a century!

Young's School The original inhabitants of Laurens County were the Cherokee. John Duncan, the first known white settler, arrived in 1754. On March 12, 1785, the General Assembly established Laurens and five other counties out of the old Ninety-Six District. The county's name derives from the Honorable Henry Laurens of Charleston, president of the Continental Congress during the Revolutionary War and later an ambassador to France. The town of Laurens (known as Laurensville well into the 1800s) became the county seat and the first courthouse was erected in 1786. And by 1820, Laurens was known for its trade of tailor-made clothes, which is what drew Andrew Johnson, a future U.S. president, and his brother came to Laurens. They arrived in 1824 and established a tailor shop. By 1840, the area was booming. The local landmark courthouse on the square was built that year and later enlarged in 1857. Businesses in the area included medical practitioners, a fancy confectionery and fruit store, carriage, buggy and wagon shops, tailoring establishments, building contractors, flour and corn mills, and 81 registered whiskey distilleries.
