  • © Licensed to London News Pictures. 15/05/2019. York UK. Nick Teed prepares to remove a 600 year old stained glass window from York Minster. Work is starting today to protest 600 year old stained glass windows at York Minster as part of an £11 million conservation project. The major project to repair and maintain stone and stained glass in the cathedral’s South Quire Aisle, which dates from the late 1300s, originally began in 2016, with activity to date focusing on replacing and conserving stonework. Specialist conservators from York Glaziers Trust are now beginning work to protect the area’s medieval stained glass, starting with the removal of two windows from the upper Clerestory level. The windows, which date from the early 1400s and are approximately 70 feet from the ground, currently have no protection from the elements and are showing the signs of six centuries of exposure, with the glass having cracked and buckled in places allowing water in.Photo credit: Andrew McCaren/LNP

  • © Licensed to London News Pictures; 16/06/2020; Bristol, UK. Bristol Cathedral has this week covered up the name of Edward Colston on the giant north window, the largest stained glass window in the cathedral and known as the "Colston window", in the ongoing controversy over the 17th century slave trader and philanthropist's place in Bristol's history and the many references to him in the city. The inscription that has been covered up read "To the Glory of God and in Memory of Edward Colston 1636 – 1721" The cathedral's action comes just over a week after the statue of Edward Colston which stood in Bristol city centre for over 100 years was pulled down by protestors and thrown in Bristol Docks during a Black Lives Matters rally and march through the city centre. The rally was held in memory of George Floyd, a black man who was killed on May 25, 2020 in Minneapolis in the US by a white police officer kneeling on his neck for nearly 9 minutes. The killing of George Floyd has seen widespread protests in the US, the UK and other countries against both modern day racism and historical legacies of slavery. Edward Colston (1636 – 1721) was a wealthy Bristol-born English merchant involved in the slave trade, a Member of Parliament and a philanthropist. He supported and endowed schools, almshouses, hospitals and churches in Bristol, London and elsewhere, and his name is commemorated in several Bristol landmarks, streets, three schools and the Colston bun. References to Edward Colston have also been removed or covered up at St Mary Redcliffe church in Bristol. Photo credit: Simon Chapman/LNP.
