  • Notes & Key words: 

John Hinde was an English photographer who set up John Hinde Ltd in Dublin, Ireland in the early 1960s. He produced most of the earlier cards himself before employing other photogaphers such as E.Nägele, E. Ludwig, D. Noble and other names who spent a long time getting just the right view, usually with people in the foreground. The prints were then artistically hand processed and manipulated in Italy (long before digital production) before being published. His company was also closely associated with Butlins and they produced many of their cards. The company’s cards have become popular with collectors in recent years due to exhibitions and being featured in books, particularly by photographer and postcard collector Martin Parr. They were influential in the development of commercial photography and postcard images and now are regarded as miniature works of art and social records in themselves, particularly those of the 1960s and 1970s.

*************

 

Exeter Cathedral, the Cathedral Church of Saint Peter at Exeter, is an Anglican cathedral, and the seat of the Bishop of Exeter, in the city of Exeter, Devon in South West England.

The present building was complete by about 1400, and has several notable features including an early set of misericords, an astronomical clock and the longest uninterrupted vaulted ceiling in England.

The founding of the cathedral at Exeter, dedicated to Saint Peter, dates from 1050, when the seat of the bishop of Devon and Cornwall was transferred from Crediton because of a fear of sea-raids. A Saxon minster already existing within the town (and dedicated to Saint Mary and Saint Peter) was used by Bishop Leofric as his seat, but services were often held out of doors, close to the site of the present cathedral building.

In 1107, William Warelwast, a nephew of William the Conqueror, was appointed to the see, and this was the catalyst for the building of a new cathedral in the Norman style. Its official foundation was in 1133, after Warelwast's time, but it took many more years to complete. Following the appointment of Walter Bronescombe as bishop in 1258, the building was already recognized as outmoded, and it was rebuilt in the Decorated Gothic style, following the example of nearby Salisbury. However, much of the Norman building was kept, including the two massive square towers and part of the walls. It was constructed entirely of local stone, including Purbeck Marble. The new cathedral was complete by about 1400, apart from the addition of the chapter house and chantry chapels.
