  • Time Travel Tuesday: in Times of Adversity Tuesday 19 May 2020
    Time Travel Tuesday: In Times of Adversity Tuesday 19 May 2020 Welcome to Time Travel Tuesday: In Times of Adversity – sharing our heritage from Bruce Castle Museum & Archive. Last Tuesday was International Nurses’ Day, when we looked at Florence Nightingale’s contribution to nursing and her focus on limiting the spread of infections and disease amongst the war wounded. In today’s post, we are taking a step further. With scientific, technological and societal developments, we will be looking briefly at how people responded locally when humankind has been faced with turbulent times of adversity, struggle and challenges in our community’s health, similar to what we are currently going through today with the pandemic crisis. We will travel back in time several centuries, to the 1500s – a time when the plague was rife. In the late 1500s, Sir Julius Caesar (1558 – 1636) lived at a mansion known as Mattyson’s on the Tottenham and Hornsey border, to the west of Tottenham Wood farm. He was the son of Caesar Aldemarle, the Venetian physician to both Queen Mary and Queen Elizabeth, and was known for his philanthropic deeds in helping the poor. On 6 September 1593, he wrote to Lady Compton of Bruce Castle, the Lady of the Manor of Tottenham. As Judge of the Admiralty Court, he asked whether her house could be used as a safe place away from the sickness in London. It was for the use in particular of a member of his office and his family to isolate at a safe distance in the countryside in Tottenham.
