The “Lord Vist: Shannon” was Richard Boyle, 2nd (and last) Viscount, grandson and heir of Francis Boyle, the sixth and youngest son of the “Great” Earl of Cork, founder of the Boyle dynasty. Both Viscounts were soldiers. The first was ennobled in 1660 for his part in suppressing the rebellion in Ireland. The second had an exceptional professional career, becoming field-marshal of all the King’s forces jointly with the 2nd Duke of Argyll. He was born about 1674 and married twice, first, in 1695, to a daughter of the 5 th Earl of Dorset, and widow of his cousin Roger, 2nd Earl of Orrery, secondly (after 1710) to Grace Senhouse, daughter of a Cumberland gentry family from Netherhall, near Maryport. By her he had a daughter, also called Grace, who in 1744 (after his death) married Charles Sackville, then Earl of Middlesex, and from 1765 2nd Duke of Dorset.1 Grace was Lord Shannon’s sole heiress, and she or her husband continued to occupy the Arlington Street house until its sale to Lord Weymouth between 1765 and 1769.2 The head of Lord Fig.

  • Esher and Walton Conservatives
    Elmbridge Electoral Review 2015 Submission to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England by Esher & Walton Conservative Association 1 Elmbridge Electoral Review This document is the Official Submission of the Esher & Walton Conservative Association (EWCA) in response to the consultation being held by the Local Government Boundary Commission for England (LGBCE) on future warding arrangements for Elmbridge Borough Council (EBC). The Conservative Group that forms the administration of Elmbridge Borough Council asked for this review with an aim to reduce the number of Borough Councillors. We are therefore pleased that the LGBCE is minded to recommend a reduction to 48 Councillors. The Esher & Walton Conservative Association notes the Commission’s guidance in relation to Councils that elect by thirds. Elmbridge Borough Council took the decision on 17th November 2014 to retain the by thirds electoral system. Considering the Commission’s guidance and the law, we consider that all new wards should have three members in order to ensure electoral equality for all voters in the borough. In addition to creating inequality, having a few wards that do not vote when the rest of the borough is voting causes confusion with the electorate. Elmbridge is made up of a number of towns and villages each with its own identity and, ideally, these would remain separated amongst electoral wards. However, this is not possible under the by thirds electoral system and it would take more than two or three exceptions to keep all the community boundaries. We believe that different communities can join together in electoral wards – like some do in the Surrey County Council divisions that cover the borough – without affecting or damaging the identities of those communities.

  • Newsletter 30 - July 2014
    Newsletter 30 - July 2014 Membership Renewal Membership subscriptions for 2014-2015 became due from 1 April 2014. We have sent out final renewal reminders. We hope you will find something to interest you in our future programme and that you will decide to renew your membership. New Look for the Newsletter The Society’s first Newsletter was published almost exactly seven years ago in the summer of 2007. Since then it has retained the original two-column format, although the first edition was written in a rather large font and contained only one meeting report of the first Clore Centre event, when we had a talk by Ian Franklin about the Grace and Favour residents at Hampton Court. Following a request from a member, we are now changing the appearance to make the Newsletter easier to read on a tablet, as the majority of our members now receive their information via email and may not print it out. It is interesting to note that, three months after our inaugural meeting, the Society had 192 members and that we have maintained a healthy membership since; it now stands at 244. Meeting Reports Wayneflete Tower Wednesday 30 April Report by Anthony Barnes For Penny Rainbow, finding out about the history of the house you live in has special meaning! Speaking to members after the AGM in April, Penny told us what it was like to become the owner of Wayneflete Tower in Esher in 1992. For over 300 years, it was a building of national importance, lived in and visited by some of the most important people of the day.

  • Title: the Relief of the Poor in Walton-On-Thames Under the Vestry and the Board of Guardians 1800-1850 : a Comparison Author: Whiteaway, Sarah Awarded: 1974
    Title: The relief of the poor in Walton-on-Thames under the Vestry and the Board of Guardians 1800-1850 : a comparison Author: Whiteaway, Sarah Awarded: 1974 Abstract: After a journey of 18 miles form London, a traveller passing through the Parish of Walton-on-Thames in Surrey in 1801, would have found himself in a fairly large parish of 6,859 acres, where the chief arable crops were barley, oats, wheat and rye. He would have discovered that the Parish of 1,476 inhabitants was bordered in the north by the River Thames and in the East by the River Mole, and that a considerable area of the Parish, about 3,000 acres, was common pasture and common land. His counterpart, fifty years later, would have seen a rather different picture. The population of Walton by 1851 had nearly doubled to 2,881, a National school has been set up, and the 1840s had seen the arrival of the railway in the Parish. The Walton Enclosure Act in 1804 had brought with it great changes in the distribution of land, and the landscape of the Parish. The Enclosure, however, were not brought in without opposition. At a Vestry meeting on November 7th 1799, of about forty inhabitants, a petition was addressed to the “nobility and gentry”, who resided in the Parish, expressing the hope that the latter would not “promote any scheme imperious to the inferior orders of the people, and especially to those from whom the labours and benefits of husbandry are to be looked for”. The petition was to go first to H.R.H.
