Maufe's Church at Weston Green

I've placed the following image on the commons and it may be of interest to this article. Before Maufe was commissioned to design Guildford Cathedral he was engaged to design parish churches including this one at Weston Green. The image was taken in winter so that foliage didn't obscure the main features - not entirely successful, however the overall design presages his work at Guildford.

Thanks. Maybe I can place most of the photos in a gallery at the base of the article to make it look tidier. In the mean time, I'll make sure someone adds some suitable categories on Wiki Commons so that it can be found by others.--Aspro (talk) 11:40, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

Lady Maufe

Some years ago, I visited Kenwood House on Hampstead Heath. One of the weirder exhibits was a collection of Georgian shoe buckles collected by Lady M. If I've got this right (and if they are still there), it might make an amusing addition to the article. --GuillaumeTell 16:34, 8 October 2011 (UTC)

Some very unexpected things go on in that vicinity. I once heard Sir Edward Heath conduct Beethoven there (decidedly well, I thought). I'll look into Lady M's shoes in the near future. Tim riley (talk) 19:35, 9 November 2011 (UTC)

Early Life

Maufe was born Edward Muff in Sunny Bank, Ilkley, Yorkshire, on 12 December 1882. He was the second of three children and the youngest son of Henry Muff and Maude Alice Muff née Smithies. Henry Muff was a linen draper who was part owner of Brown Muff & Co a department store in Bradford, “the Harrods of the North”. Maufe was the niece of Titus Salt, the founder of Saltaire. Maufe started his education at Wharfedale School in Ilkley, and later attended Bradford School.

Which Maufe/Muff was this who was a 'niece' ?

That's the trouble with the vulgar demotic of enforced equality by referring to everyone by their surnames.
