Unfortunately, the interior has not survived the wreckers. Clearly, Scottish law is as comitted to conserving heritage as English law.

Hi,
I'm currently working on the restoration of St Francis of Assisi in Gorton and also doing some research into EW Pugin for a permanent exhibition when we re-open in May 2007. I was delighted to find the Archiseek site and this thread. Thanks to Sangallo for the information on Belgium links. One of the puzzles for us is what was the connection between the Belgian Franciscans and Pugin. I had suspected there had been a Belgian link prior to the Franciscans arrival in Cornwall in 1858. One of their first acts was to engage EW Pugin to enlarge their premises at Sclerder. Their next two collaborations were Killarney Friary and Gorton Monastery.

I also believe we have a photo of EW taken at Gorton Monastery in about 1867. I've attached the photo and we think Pugin is at the back on the left.

I hope to contribute more and will update on the restoration if people would like?

Best wishes

Dear Gorton,
Glad to know you like the E.W. Pugin thread, and that it is proving helpful for the Gorton restoration project. I don't know anything definite about the connection between Pugin and the Belgian Franciscans, but one must bear in mind that E.W.'s father, A.W. N. Pugin travelled a lot in Northern France, and had contacts with Gothic revivalists like Didron. Certainly, E.W. was friendly with the Belgian revivalist, Béthune . just maybe the connection comes from there.
Please keep us all informed of the Gorton restoration - perhaps some photos?
Also, do you know much about E.W.'s All Saints Church in Barton-upon-Irwell? It would be interesting to get some good photos of exterior and interior on the thread, as the ones presently on it do not do justice to this jewel.
Regarding Cobh Cathedral, which was planned by E.W., though he died only seven years after it was begun, you will find plenty of information on the website of the Friends of St Colman's Cathedral, http://www.foscc.com

Does anybody know what is going on at Ushaw College? The pictures do not give us much hope to think that E. W. Pugin - or anyone else for that matter - is, as they say nowadays, cherished.

I'll sort some pictures of Gorton Monastery and publish soon. Also we are revamping our website and will have a section on the current restoration. will pass on details soon.

I'll also go over to All Saints Barton in next few weeks to get some new pictures for the thread

Dear Gorton,
