It is hoped that the Archbishop of York, to whom the chancel belongs, will cause it to be restored to its original beauty. On the south side of the chancel is the Harcourt aisle or chapel, with several fine monuments of that family. The remains of the manorhouse adjoining to the church are about the end of the fifteenth century. The kitchen, with its smoke-louvre, and without chimneys, is curious, somewhat resembling the celebrated abbot's kitchen at Glastonbury.

Oxford Society for Promoting the Study of Gothic Architecture.-At a meeting of this Society, held on Thursday last, a paper on Stanton Harcourt Church, Oxfordshire, was read by Edgar E. Estcourt, Esq., B. A. of Exeter College. This church is a very fine and interesting one, its plan cruciform, the nave in the Norman style of the twelfth century, the chancel and transepts in the early English style of the thirteenth century, and a good specimen of this style. Across the entrances to the chancel is a wooden screen in the same style with this part of the building of the thirteenth century, and believed to be almost unique. Unfortunately, it is painted sky-blue, which is probably the cause that it has not previously been noticed. On the north side of the chancel is a very curious structure, sup posed to be a holy sepulchre, with a rich canopy of the fourteenth century. the usual emblems, or representations of the implements of the crucifixion; and at the four angles of the canopy, The altar screen is of Grecian woodwork, the four evangelists.
