  • St Marylebone Parish Church Records of Burials in the Crypt 1817-1853
    Record of Bodies Interred in the Crypt of St Marylebone Parish Church 1817-1853 This list of 863 names has been collated from the merger of two paper documents held in the parish office of St Marylebone Church in July 2011. The large vaulted crypt beneath St Marylebone Church was used as place of burial from 1817, the year the church was consecrated, until it was full in 1853, when the entrance to the crypt was bricked up. The first, most comprehensive document is a handwritten list of names, addresses, date of interment, ages and vault numbers, thought to be written in the latter half of the 20th century. This was copied from an earlier, original document, which is now held by London Metropolitan Archives and copies on microfilm at London Metropolitan and Westminster Archives. The second document is a typed list from undertakers Farebrother Funeral Services who removed the coffins from the crypt in 1980 and took them for reburial at Brookwood cemetery, Woking in Surrey. This list provides information taken from details on the coffin and states the name, date of death and age. Many of the coffins were unidentifiable and marked “unknown”. On others the date of death was illegible and only the year has been recorded. Brookwood cemetery records indicate that the reburials took place on 22nd October 1982. There is now a memorial stone to mark the area. Whilst merging the documents as much information as possible from both lists has been recorded. Additional information from the Farebrother Funeral Service lists, not on the original list, including date of death has been recorded in italics under date of interment.

  • Chapter 5 242–276 Oxford Street John Prince's Street to Holles Street
    DRAFT Chapter 5 242–276 Oxford Street John Prince’s Street to Holles Street A block-size commercial development dating from 1959–63 dominates this section of Oxford Street today, stretching back to encompass frontages facing John Prince’s and Holles Streets and half the south side of Cavendish Square. Very typical for its period, it consists mostly of offices and shops. The presence of the London College of Fashion over the Oxford Street front adds a dash of more adventurous architecture. Early history This was among the first sections of the Cavendish-Harley estate to attract building, early in the reign of George I. In connection with the plan to begin that development in and round Cavendish Square, the whole block was leased in 1719 by the Cavendish-Harley trustees to John Prince, so-called master builder, and the Estate’s steward, Francis Seale. But Seale soon died, and Prince’s ambitions seem to have gone unrealized, though he was still active in the 1730s. As a result it took the best part of two decades for the block to be completed by the usual variety of building tradesmen.1 An undated plan shows the layout as first completed, with the apportionment of property between Seale’s executors and Prince apparently indicated. The first development along the frontage may have been inhibited by existing buildings around Nibbs’s Pound at the corner of John Prince’s Street (Princes Street until 1953); it seems that the pound continued in Survey of London © Bartlett School of Architecture, University College London Website: https://www.ucl.ac.uk/bartlett/architecture/research/survey-london 1 DRAFT existence for some years thereafter, though eventually the Nibbs name was transferred to the pound at the bottom of Marylebone Lane.

  • Cavendish Square
    DRAFT CHAPTER 7 Cavendish Square Peering over the railings and through the black trees into the garden of the Square, you see a few miserable governesses with wan-faced pupils wandering round and round it, and round the dreary grass-plot in the centre of which rises the statue of Lord Gaunt, who fought at Minden, in a three- tailed wig, and otherwise habited like a Roman Emperor. Gaunt House occupies nearly a side of the Square. The remaining three sides are composed of mansions that have passed away into dowagerism; – tall, dark houses, with window-frames of stone, or picked out of a lighter red. Little light seems to be behind those lean, comfortless casements now: and hospitality to have passed away from those doors as much as the laced lacqueys and link-boys of old times, who used to put out their torches in the blank iron extinguishers that still flank the lamps over the steps. Brass plates have penetrated into the square – Doctors, the Diddlesex Bank Western Branch – the English and European Reunion, &c. – it has a dreary look. Thackeray made little attempt to disguise Cavendish Square in Vanity Fair (1847–8). Dreariness could not be further from what had been intended by those who, more than a century earlier, had conceived the square as an enclave of private palaces and patrician grandeur. Nor, another century and more after Thackeray, is it likely to come to mind in what, braced between department stores and doctors’ consulting rooms, has become an oasis of smart offices, sleek subterranean parking and occasional lunch-hour sunbathing.

  • Chapter 8: South of Cavendish Square
    DRAFT CHAPTER 8 South of Cavendish Square The short streets south of Cavendish Square were first built up in the 1720s– 40s as part of the early development of the Cavendish–Harley estate in and around the square. They have been repeatedly recast since, though a few original houses, some by James Gibbs, survived into the 1970s. Only Gibbs’s Oxford Chapel (now St Peter’s, Vere Street) remains from that early period; today offices and the undistinguished sides and backs of Oxford Street department stores predominate. St Peter’s, Vere Street The Oxford Chapel, known since 1832 as St Peter’s, Vere Street, was built in 1721–4 for the inhabitants of the new streets of houses then growing up around Cavendish Square. With the twentieth-century transformation of the area from residential to commercial, the building has ceased to function as a chapel but it retains a religious use as the home of the London Institute for Contemporary Christianity. Tucked away behind Oxford Street, dwarfed by department stores and offices, it is not only overshadowed but overlooked. It is, however, the earliest surviving building from the Cavendish–Harley estate and the sole survivor in anything like its original form of Marylebone’s several eighteenth-century proprietary chapels. The plasterwork is among the finest of its date in London. The inclusion of a chapel on John Prince’s plan for the estate, engraved in 1719, indicates that a place of worship was already then intended (see Ill. 8.2). This would prevent undue pressure on the rather distant parish church, Survey of London © Bartlett School of Architecture, University College London Website: https://www.ucl.ac.uk/bartlett/architecture/research/survey-london 1 DRAFT give anchorage to the new streets, and yield an income.
