English: St Blaise, Haccombe A singular church, perhaps of as much interest as any other of its size, and possibly dating from 1233, certainly the C13. "The Rector of the church holds the rare title of Archpriest a privilege founded in medieval times and ratified in 1913 by King George V. This entitles him to wear lawn sleeves, like a bishop, and a fur stole, or amyss." (http://www.pbs.org.uk/news/index.asp ) (The more usual spelling would be "amice"). This title reflects the fact that the Archpriest has the right to sit beside the Bishop at ceremonies, and recognises no authority lower than the Archbishop of Canterbury.
The Amice is a rectangle of white linen worn as a neck-cloth or hood with the alb and other vestments at the Eucharist. Not to be confused with the Amyss or Almuce, which is as stated in the preceding paragraph a stole-like garment of animal fur, worn over the surplice by canons, archpriests and other dignitaries in lieu of the Tippet or Black Scarf at Mattins and Evensong. (Note by Hugh Allen, 30 April 2021) Reverend William Keble Martin, the artist of Concise British Flora fame, held the position of Archpriest here from 1921 to 1934. The church was praised by the Prayer Book Society in March 2008 for using only the 1662 Book of Common Prayer. The bell, dating from 1290, may be the oldest in Devon, and there are several remarkable monuments. |
