http://www.spab.org.uk/education_betjemanaward.html
WHAT IS SPAB NOTICE BOARD EDUCATION MEMBERSHIP ... John Betjeman Award "There are something like twenty thousand CofE places of worship in this country and of those far more than half are ancient buildings, that is to say each represents the gradual growth of a community. They are the history of English art displayed in living form, and most country churches have far more to tell to those who will look than have the local museums." from Art in Living Form by John Betjeman CLOSING DATE FOR APPLICATIONS FOR 2004: 27th February 2004 The Society for the Protection of Ancient Buildings invites entries for a competition to honour the memory of Sir John Betjeman, and to mark his membership of The Society's Committee from 1954 to 1977. The award will be made for repair to the fabric of buildings in use as churches and chapels in England and Wales, which has been substantially completed during the previous 12 months. The award itself will take the form of a framed print by John Piper of a church much loved by Sir John Betjeman, with a suitable inscription.
CONDITIONS
  • Entry forms are available on application to the SPAB, 37 Spital Square, London, E1 6DY, and should normally be signed by the Incumbent or Churchwardens in respect of Anglican buildings, by the Bishop or Priest in respect of Roman Catholic buildings, or by the Pastor or Elders in respect of Non-Conformist buildings. Cathedrals are not eligible.

    The holly in the windy hedge
    And round the Manor House the yew
    Will soon be stripped to deck the ledge,
    The altar, font and arch and pew,
    So that villagers can say Provincial public houses blaze And Corporation tramcars clang, On lighted tenements I gaze Where paper decorations hang, And bunting in the red Town Hall And London shops on Christmas Eve Are strung with silver bells and flowers As hurrying clerks the City leave To pigeon-haunted classic towers, And marbled clouds go scudding by The many-steepled London sky. And girls in slacks remember Dad, And oafish louts remember Mum, Even to shining ones who dwell Safe in the Dorchester Hotel. And is it true? and is it true? The most tremendous tale of all, The Maker of the stars and sea Become a Child on earth for me? And is it true? For if it is

      I was from England, and I lived from 1906-1974. Print or Buy my poetry? View comments Add to favorites? John Betjeman was born on August 28th, 1906, near Highgate, London. His father was a cabinet maker, a trade which had been in the family for several generations. The family name was Betjemann, with two 'n's, but John dropped the second 'n' during the First World War, to make the name less German.
      John was an only child, and by all accounts had a lonely childhood, taking comfort from his teddy bear, Archibald, later to feature in his children's story, Archie and the Strict Baptists.
      Having attended his first schools in Highgate, John became a boarder at Dragon School, Oxford, aged eleven. Three years later, he went to Marlborough College, again as a boarder.
