Mouse's #FridaysBitsAndPieces from #StMaryRedcliffe Bristol. All of the bits and pieces Mouse didn't get to share in the week: From Lady Chapel through parclose pierced with 3-light pointed windows, #Ogee lights, Perpendicular tracery, escutcheon spandrels and brattishing
North of Lady Chapel #StMaryRecliffe Bristol for #AdoorableThursday
The crocketed #Ogee with finial is a motif found across the church from niches to doors. It marks out and frames the sacred
North aisle #StMaryRedcliffe Bristol for #AdoorableThursday
Surmounted by beautifully lit niches bearing angels a crocketed #Ogee with foliate finial and fleuron carved cavetto moulding housing a late planked and studded door. Mouse say "Nice"
Interior north porch. Entrance to north aisle #StMaryRedcliffe Bristol for #AdoorableThursday
More for the lovely (but now unoccupied) niches, C15 multifoil #Ogee arch and intricate carvings in the cavetto moulding than the Victorian door
Central bay, south transept #StMaryRedcliffe Bristol for #TraceryTuesday
Although this is primarily a Perpendicular church and although this is a panel window it is in the Decorated curvilinear (flowing) style with cusped #Ogee, daggers and quatrefoil in the tracery
Beautifully carved canopied tomb decorated with finialed #Ogee separated by crocketed pinnacles. Probably one of the most common motifs in medieval church carving. Eternal light for eternal life
North aisle, eastern end #StMaryRedcliffe Bristol for #MemorialMonday
Amid the Gothic splendour an overcarved #UberGothic C19 pulpit. It does at least give the opportunity to use the term 'nodding ogee' for that is the form of the niches housing the apostles. Finialed crocketed nodding #ogee to be precise #StMaryRedcliffe Bristol #SundaySermons
West elevation #BlackFriarsBristol #WindowsOnWednesday
Lovely but re-set and repaired Decorated-Style 2-light window with cusped #Ogee lights. Intriguing creasing of a #GhostRoof to the right (facing) #TheHistoryMouseInBristol
Mouse sticking round #HolyTrinityBristol for a couple of days as she has more to share: Pulpitum for lovers of the #Ogee everywhere #OgeeLove #StoneworkSunday #SundayStonework
(Mouse particularly pleased with this one. First ever total apex alignment - and it's beautiful)
Tuesday's missed Mouse posts due to the Blue Sky Wobble: Clever and unusual tracery effectively shows how #Ogee or 4-centred arches are constructed. Three inverted pointed arches create intersecting ogees as well as quatrefoil and daggers #HolyTrinityAbbotsLeigh #NorthSomerset for #TraceryTuesday
Over-carved Victorian pulpit with openwork traceried 3-light windows diagonal buttresses with crocketed finials and various floriate and foliate designs to the spandrels and rail. The #Ogee motif is its redeeming feature #HolyTrinityAbbotsLeigh #NorthSomerset for #SundaySermons
Perpendicular-style Square 2-light window with cusped #Ogee lights and monolithic lintel #StGeorgeEastonInGordano #NorthSomerset for #WindowsOnWednesday
Although the church was largely rebuilt C19 the style of the cusping almost hints at re-set windows from an original church
East window #StGeorgeEastonInGordano #NorthSomerset
Pointed 3-light. Cusped lights, #Ogee central light, pointed either side. Very fine and unusual bar tracery in Perpendicular style. It's fine enough to be the original restored but the chancel was rebuilt C19 #TraceryTuesday
At last the wonderous windows of #StMaryPortbury #NorthSomerset, in chronological order (approximately), part E: north chantry. Chancel east. Pointed 3-light with cusped #Ogee lights. Richly moulded mullions. Plain label and stops. Perpendicular-style. Mid C15 (or Victorian copy)
Probably once a stoup and possibly reset. South inner wall of south aisle #StMaryPortbury #NorthSomerset #StonemasonryMonday. Lovely #Ogee with cavetto moulding decorated with primitive fleurons, typical of C15. Rather lovely and Mouse not seen this particular design elsewhere
Most impressive #DoorInMidAir from the #ScamperDownTheSomersetCoast #EastQuantoxheadToDunster leg: #StGeorgeDunster. Once giving access from the stair turret to the top of a screen between quire and crossing. Probably a rood loft. And chamfered #Ogee headed too #AdoorableThursday
The one that won for windows on the #ScamperDownTheSomersetCoast #EastQuantoxheadToDunster leg #StDecumanWatchet: Perpendicular-style pseudo-4-centred window. Divided into three by thick mullions, #Ogee lights have verticals from each apex rising to the head #WindowsOnWednesday
Top for tracery from the #ScamperDownTheSomersetCoast #EastQuantoxheadToDunster leg: #StAndrewOldCleeve. If Mouse absolutely positively had to choose just on type of tracery it would be Decorated, flowing, reticulated (with cusped #Ogee lights) #TraceryTuesday
The porch that most made Mouse want to PIFAP on the #ScamperDownTheSomersetCoast #HuntspillToKilve leg: #StPeterHuntspill. Diagonal buttresses, square set #Ogee light with glazed spandrels, parapet and string course. Lovely
The winner of delectable door from the #ScamperDownTheSomersetCoast #HuttonToBrentKnoll leg: #StMaryEastBrent. Fabulous C15 filleted planked door with cusped #Ogee panels and crocketed finials. The fillets are replaced but the age of the finials is clear to see #AdoorableThursday
The window winner's wonder of windows #ScamperDownTheSomersetCoast #HuttonToBrentKnoll leg: #StMichaelBrentKnoll. Cusped #Ogee single light, 3-light square headed with hood mould C15, 3-light Perpendicular pointed with cusped ogee lights #WindowsOnWednesday
The winner for the diversity of doors and doorways award for the #PortisheadToWestonSuperMare leg of the #ScamperDownTheSomersetCoast is #StPaulKewstoke: Part II; doorway to rood stair. Wave moulded #Ogee surmounted by a Romanesque #Spolia head spewing hood mould #DoorwayThursday
Gateway to south transept #StGeorgeDunster #Somerset for #Thursgate
The head is probably not in situ, but it's a fine 4-centred arch with #Ogee label
A #GlimpseOfStGeorgeDunster through the rather lovely low #Ogee arch entrance to the 'Dream Garden'. This view is certainly "such stuff as dreams are made of..." #StGeorgeDunster #Somerset for #DoorwayThursday
It's late, but it's never too late for Mouse's #FridaysBitsAndPieces from #CleeveAbbey #Somerset. The bits and pieces Mouse didn't get to share in the week: The panel widows of the fratery with cusped #Ogee lights, bar tracery and quatrefoil piercings. Absolute #PerpyPerfection
Fabulous font cover. Octagonal base rests on the font sides. Beautiful #Ogee ribs, bridged by intricately carved curved panels, rise to a finial #FontsOnFriday #StAndrewOldCleve #Somerset
East of chancel #StAndrewOldCleeve #Somerset for #TraceryTuesday
Fine 3-light window with cusped #Ogee lights and reticulated tracery. Possibly a C19 replacement, but too fine to worry about that
Carved niche and effigy north of nave #StAndrewOldCleeve #Somerset for #MemorialMonday
One to zoom in on if that sort of thing interests you gentle reader. The #FootBeast is recorded as cat playing with a mouse. That's not getting a closeup. #Ogee finial is a characterful face
North of nave #StAndrewOldCleeve #Somerset for #MemorialMonday
C15 effigy in an impressively moulded #Ogee niche surmounted by an (unrelated) memorial tablet (although it does make for a very striking composition)
Mouse's #FridaysBitsAndPieces from #StDecumanWatchet #Somerset. The bits and pieces Mouse didn't share in the week: Occupied and unoccupied niches in the cavetto moulding between the shafts of the north aisle arcade. The niches have a podium and crocketed, finialed #Ogee aedicule
