  • 'X'marks the Spot: the History and Historiography of Coleshill House
    UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON FACULTY OF HUMANITIES Department of History ‘X’ Marks the Spot: The History and Historiography of Coleshill House, Berkshire by Karen Fielder Thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy June 2012 UNIVERSITY OF SOUTHAMPTON ABSTRACT FACULTY OF HUMANITIES DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY Doctor of Philosophy ‘X’ MARKS THE SPOT: THE HISTORY AND HISTORIOGRAPHY OF COLESHILL HOUSE, BERKSHIRE by Karen Fielder Coleshill House was a much admired seventeenth-century country house which the architectural historian John Summerson referred to as ‘a statement of the utmost value to British architecture’. Following a disastrous fire in September 1952 the remains of the house were demolished amidst much controversy shortly before the Coleshill estate including the house were due to pass to the National Trust. The editor of The Connoisseur, L.G.G. Ramsey, published a piece in the magazine in 1953 lamenting the loss of what he described as ‘the most important and significant single house in England’. ‘Now’, he wrote, ‘only X marks the spot where Coleshill once stood’. Visiting the site of the house today on the Trust’s Coleshill estate there remains a palpable sense of the absent building. This thesis engages with the house that continues to exist in the realm of the imagination, and asks how Coleshill is brought to mind not simply through the visual signals that remain on the estate, but also through the mental reckoning resulting from what we know and understand of the house. In particular, this project explores the complexities of how the idea of Coleshill as a canonical work in British architectural histories was created and sustained over time.

  • The Press at Stonor
    The Press At Stonor (1581) The secret printing press was established at Stonor by a team of Catholic printers disguised as gentry. They were later joined by Fr Edmund Campion, but his superior, Fr Robert Persons, remained in London. Clandestine liaison with sympathisers at Oxford University was established by Fr William Hartley and Fr Arthur Pitts, a son of the deceased Iffley church papist of the same name. While visiting Oxford Fr Hartley discovered that Roland Jenks, the Catholic stationer and bookbinder of 'Black Assizes' fame, was in trouble with the authorities again. As Jenks had recently worked for Fr Persons, the Stonor team sent a messenger to London to give warning. It transpired that Fr Person's lodgings had already been raided by a hundred armed soldiers, and that a young Douai priest had been arrested nearby. The priest, Fr Alexander Bryant, was starved and severely tortured, but revealed nothing about the secret press. The former Oxford student's bravery allowed the printing to continue and enabled Fr Persons to escape to Stonor. The press was probably installed in the large bedroom at Stonor House called Mount Pleasant. This has concealed access through another small room to the vast attics. As the house is built on a slope it was possible to escape from the attics to the then thickly wooded rising land behind the house. Stonor House As it is today. In Tudor times it was even more surrounded by woods. By late June 1581 enough copies of Fr Campion's new book 'Decem Rationes' had been printed for circulation at Oxford.
