Resurgam: The story of a recreated window
On a cold February morning in 2003, arsonists set fire to Christchurch, in Jarrow. The intense heat of the fire which was started on the altar destroyed beyond repair the large lancet above which formed the main east window. This paper sets out to explain why the window, originally made by the firm of Charles Earner Kempe in 1893, was recreated. It outlines the processes by which the exceptional decision to remake the window was arrived at, and explores the stages of its reconstruction, examining some of the issues in conservation ethics raised by the project.
