The unexpected perfection of this little church lies in its concealed chancel, enabling the celebration of a pre-tridentine eucharistic liturgy, nearly fully walled off from the village congregation in the nave. This would be an early form of the modern orthodox liturgies, which take place behind an iconostasis, a more opaque version of the Roman Catholic rood screen. Alas, the liturgy would not have been in Old English (Anglosaxon), but in Latin. At the end of the Mass, the priest would deliver a short sermon standing in front of the chancel arch, and in the Old English of King Alfred's Wessex. Alfred would have known of this little church, about 150 years old by his time, its walls by then covered in friezes and frescoes of the bible stories, which the priest would make reference to in his sermon. Such wall painting can still be experienced in the little churches of South Tyrol or in Swiss Graubünden (e.g. Bonaduz, near Rhäzüns).

@@richardcoates2317 At the point of transsubstantiation, the priest would come forward from the altar to stand in the chancel arch and present the Body of Christ, then later the Blood of Christ above his head, accompanied by the ringing of bells, and the wafting of incense. This explains the height of the arch. The church is so liturgically perfect as none are today.

Haunting. I don't think most modern people can comprehend the trauma wrought by the so-called 'Dissolution of the Monasteries' by King Henry VIII. Destruction of ancient buildings, the social and religious upheaval, the services provided to common folk...so sad and unnecessary.

Dear Philip. Thanks for your positive feedback and kind words. Since 2020 I always film, edit and upload my videos to KZbin in 4K but whenever I play them back I have to manually adjust the 1080P default settling on the YT browser to 2160P due to the poor download speed currently provided by our ISP. However playing in 4K causes annoying picture-freezes due to buffering issues (although the 1440P setting usually works). In view of the fact that Westbury is no longer looked over by an 'Old Grey Mare' , the splendour of it's dazzling 'new' White Horse certainly deserves to be shown to everyone in full UHD! I'm pleased that my 'animal' video has clearly worked a bit of 'magic' and that someone seems to have given it a ka-nine out of ten. Bow-hwow could this be? You're welcome to use it to make the video you propose but I hope you don't get any woof comments from your viewers/subscribers...!! 😂 Good luck and I look forward to watching your video. Kind regards. RICHARD

The passing loop of the upper section is very interesting because each tram changes with its wheels the position of the point encountered when it leaves the passing loop, this in order to enter the same track when going back. In order to check the regular position of the point before entering the passing loop, the drive of the tram Number 6 is looking for the white disc with the figure 6 applied to the lever of the point and the driver of the tram Number 7 is looking for the white disc with the figure 7. This ingenious system reveals that the points designed by the Swiss designer Carl Roman Abt are absolutely useless in order to enter a passing loop. Many single track funiculars in Switzerland, Italy, Germany and so on have Abt points, but in order to have the cabins circulating on such points, they have to be provided with wheels with two flanges on a side and without flanges on the other side

Also in the funicular traction section (using a pusher) of the renowned Trieste - Opicina tramway (Trenovia Trieste - Opicina or "El Tram de Opcina" in Trieste dialect) "The bottom half of the section is single-track, but above the passing loop it has interlaced double track". As on the Great Orme Tramway (lower section), the cable runs down the center of the track. However, the switches (points) on the steep section are free of needles (I call them American points) to allow the free transit of the pusher which is equipped with 4 jaws that grip the two rails that form the track in the event of braking. urgency
@Luigi-uj5ml Жыл бұрын
It is clear that the tram cars of the Upper section must inevitably change the side to which they are attached to the drag rope which forms a closed loop on itself, before making the journey in the opposite direction to the previous one (going up or going down ), otherwise, once they reached the spring switches of the central loop, each of the two tram carriages would move onto the right track while the cable would continue along the other track of the central loop. I would therefore like to kindly know how the tram carriages in operation along the Upper section unhook from one of the two sections of the drag rope which forms a closed ring on itself and engage the other segment of the same rope. I hope I have conveyed the idea. Thanking you in advance for your availability, I would like to take this opportunity to extend cordial and sincere regards

Given that "The lower section is built in or alongside the public road and has gradients as steep as 1 in 3.8 (26.15%). The track throughout this section is laid as grooved rail within the road surface, and the cable lies below the road surface in a conduit between the rails. The bottom half of the section is single-track, but above the passing loop it has interlaced double track." I would kindly like to know who operates the switch (point) that leads to the "Interlaced double track". Grateful for the attention given to me, I would like to take this opportunity to extend cordial and sincere regards

@richardcoates2317 Жыл бұрын
Thanks for your feedback. The music was described as being from 'Ancient Rome' and I understand the group that performed it is probably Synaulia. The Roman Empire covered a very large area (including Britannia) and lasted several centuries. Possibly the style of music in the video didn't make it to what is nowadays the United Kingdom but it was the most authentic/appropriate piece I could find. Regards.
