Land Tax Assessments for London and Middlesex RESEARCH GUIDE Land Tax Assessments for London and Middlesex LMA Research Guide 9: Land Tax Assessments for London and Middlesex CONTENTS Introduction Background Records at LMA City of London Middlesex Kent Surrey Introduction London Metropolitan Archives holds land tax assessments for the City of London, the county of Middlesex (including most Westminster parishes), and certain parishes in Kent and Surrey now in inner London. Almost all of these assessments have been digitised and made available on the Ancestry website. Please see the database titled London, England, Land Tax Records, 1692-1932. Background The first assessments of 1692-3 were made under the terms of 'An Act for granting to their Majesties an aid of four shillings in the pound for one year for carrying on a vigorous war against France'[4 William & Mary c.1, 1692/3]. The Act specified that real estate and personal property, that is buildings and moveable goods as well as land, were to be taxed. It nominated for each borough and county in England and Wales the local commissioners who were to supervise the assessments and local collection. The tax was voted annually, usually in the spring, until 1798 when it was transformed into a permanent tax but was redeemable on payment of a lump sum. It was levied on a number of different bases: as a pound rate between 1693 and 1696, as a 4 shillings assessment supplemented by a poll tax in 1697 and from 1698-1798 on the system whereby each county or borough was given a fixed sum to collect. In 1949 redemption became compulsory on property changing hands and in 1963 all unredeemed land tax was abolished. The assessors for each county are listed in the annual Acts of Parliament, until 1798. The sums collected for the counties of London and Middlesex (and the City of Westminster) appear, until at least 1760, to have been passed to the Chamber of London and subsequently to the Exchequer. Information recorded in the assessments The only information recorded consistently is: The name of the owner and/or occupier of each premises The amount at which each person was assessed in respect of his/her property, personal and real In addition the following details may or may not be included: The name of the parish, street or precinct (a subdivision of a City of London ward) in which the real property is located Street numbers A description of the real property, e.g. house, stable, warehouse Annual rental value of the real property A breakdown of the assessment on real and personal property Problems in the use of assessments The main difficulties stem from the inconsistent way in which the assessments were compiled. Only heads of households, as either landlord or tenant, are listed in the assessments. For much of the period street and precinct names are not recorded in any systematic way. Some numbers which look like street numbers are in fact assessment numbers. The order of entries depended on the route taken by the assessor which varied as he moved from main street to side street to alley and back to main street. This means that entries for a single street are often spread over two or three pages. Few descriptions are included of the real property being assessed before the mid 19th century. Before the advent of printed returns in c.1815, the layout and content of assessments is highly idiosyncratic. Clerks occasionally failed to put a heading to, or reversed the usual order of, the columns of names and figures. It is not always clear whether landlord or tenant is named as the 'inhabitant' and this information is sometimes out of date. The assessment of a tax on personal income soon disappeared from the estimates. By the early 18th century most tax collected related to land, hence its popular title, the 'Land Tax'. However, where assessments are recorded as a single column of undifferentiated figures, it is worth remembering that an assessment of moveable property continued to be an element in the amount until 1833. In most cases no revaluation of the property was made after 1698. Thereafter both rentals and assessments become increasingly inaccurate as guides to the actual value of the property. After 1798 it was possible to avoid further yearly instalments of Land Tax by paying a lump sum. From 1798 therefore the returns tend to become less reliable as registers of local inhabitants as the assessors lost interest in the owners of 'redeemed' land (but see also section below concerning Middlesex) Records at LMA Please see the following resources for a list of our holdings: London Generations family history database on our website - Arranged by modern London Borough LMA Catalogue - Available online and on the open shelves at LMA London Rate Assessments and Inhabitants Lists in Guildhall Library and the Corporation of London Records Office (Corporation of London, 2nd ed. rev., 1968) - Copy available from staff in the Information Area City of London The following records are available on Ancestry: City of London Land Tax Assessments, 1692-1694 and 1703-1831 (CLC/525/MS11316/001-398) City of London Land Tax Assessments, 1832-1930 (CLC/525/MS11316/399-522) The assessments have been bound alphabetically by ward, and for each ward they are grouped by parish, precinct or liberty. Within this grouping they are arranged chronologically. It should be noted that between 1703 and 1838 each year's assessments occupy three volumes. In the assessments the boundaries of the precincts usually correspond to the portions of the different parishes in each ward. There are however numerous exceptions - for clarification, see John Smart's A short account of the several wards...1741 (a copy is available at Guildhall Library).

  • London and Middlesex in the 1660S Introduction: the Early Modern
    London and Middlesex in the 1660s Introduction: The early modern metropolis first comes into sharp visual focus in the middle of the seventeenth century, for a number of reasons. Most obviously this is the period when Wenceslas Hollar was depicting the capital and its inhabitants, with views of Covent Garden, the Royal Exchange, London women, his great panoramic view from Milbank to Greenwich, and his vignettes of palaces and country-houses in the environs. His oblique birds-eye map- view of Drury Lane and Covent Garden around 1660 offers an extraordinary level of detail of the streetscape and architectural texture of the area, from great mansions to modest cottages, while the map of the burnt city he issued shortly after the Fire of 1666 preserves a record of the medieval street-plan, dotted with churches and public buildings, as well as giving a glimpse of the unburned areas.1 Although the Fire destroyed most of the historic core of London, the need to rebuild the burnt city generated numerous surveys, plans, and written accounts of individual properties, and stimulated the production of a new and large-scale map of the city in 1676.2 Late-seventeenth-century maps of London included more of the spreading suburbs, east and west, while outer Middlesex was covered in rather less detail by county maps such as that of 1667, published by Richard Blome [Fig. 5]. In addition to the visual representations of mid-seventeenth-century London, a wider range of documentary sources for the city and its people becomes available to the historian.

  • The Fusilier Origins in Tower Hamlets the Tower Was the Seat of Royal
    The Fusilier Origins in Tower Hamlets The Tower was the seat of Royal power, in addition to being the Sovereign’s oldest palace, it was the holding prison for competitors and threats, and the custodian of the Sovereign’s monopoly of armed force until the consolidation of the Royal Arsenal at Woolwich in 1805. As such, the Tower Hamlets’ traditional provision of its citizens as a loyal garrison to the Tower was strategically significant, as its possession and protection influenced national history. Possession of the Tower conserved a foothold in the capital, even for a sovereign who had lost control of the City or Westminster. As such, the loyalty of the Constable and his garrison throughout the medieval, Tudor and Stuart eras was critical to a sovereign’s (and from 1642 to 1660, Parliament’s) power-base. The ancient Ossulstone Hundred of the County of Middlesex was that bordering the City to the north and east. With the expansion of the City in the later Medieval period, Ossulstone was divided into four divisions; the Tower Division, also known as Tower Hamlets. The Tower Hamlets were the military jurisdiction of the Constable of the Tower, separate from the lieutenancy powers of the remainder of Middlesex. Accordingly, the Tower Hamlets were sometimes referred to as a county-within-a-county. The Constable, with the ex- officio appointment of Lord Lieutenant of Tower Hamlets, held the right to call upon citizens of the Tower Hamlets to fulfil garrison guard duty at the Tower. Early references of the unique responsibility of the Tower Hamlets during the reign of Bloody Mary show that in 1554 the Privy Council ordered Sir Richard Southwell and Sir Arthur Darcye to muster the men of the Tower Hamlets "whiche owe their service to the Towre, and to give commaundement that they may be in aredynes for the defence of the same”1.

  • A«»«N, TOWN PLANNING and VALUATION
    /a«»«n, TOWN PLANNING AND 18th December, 1944. VALUATION COMMITTEE Present : Councillor Priestley (in the Chair), Councillors Brown, C.C., committee. Beacham, Carter, Charles, J.P., Coles, Daniels, J.P., Ellement and Gange. PART I.—RECOMMENDATIONS. RECOMMENDATION I-Town and Country Planning Acts, 1932 : Proposed Formation of Executive Joint Town Planning Committees for Middlesex. Your Committee reported at length on this matter to the Council on 22nd July, 1944. The Council at that meeting (by Council resolution 2919) approved, in principle, the setting up of executive joint town planning committees in Middlesex in accordance with the suggestion which had been made by the Ministry of Town and Country Planning. The Ministry indicated that it would be appropriate to form three such joint committees in the County, one of these to be called the " West Middlesex Executive Joint Planning Committee" and to be appointed by the Borough Councils of Hendon, Wembley and Willesden and the Urban District Councils of Harrow, Ruislip-Northwood and Uxbridge. By the same resolution the Council authorised your Committee to appoint representatives to discuss generally, with representatives of the five other local authorities concerned, matters relating to the formation and constitution of the new West Middlesex executive joint committee, which was then being suggested by the Ministry of Town and Country Planning. The final paragraph of the recommendation adopted by the Council on 22nd July, 1944, contains an instruction to your Committee to report further, with appropriate recommendations, when a decision upon the proposals of the Ministry of Town and Country Planning had been arrived at. A conference was held in Harrow on 18th October, 1944, at which there were present representatives of the six local authorities mentioned above.

  • William Murduck, 1834 – 1895
    William Murduck, 1834 – 1895 William Murduck was born in his parents’ home in Bethnal Green (London), England, probably very early in 1834. His parents – Thomas and Mary Ann [nee Coleman], crossed parish boundaries from Bethnal Green to Stepney when they had their son baptised at St. Dunstan’s, the church of the Parish of Stepney, on 9 February 1834.1 Thomas the father was a bricklayer/builder (born 1795) who had moved in to east London probably in the fall of 1825, a little more than eight years before William’s birth. Thomas had been married to Mary Coleman in 1821, in the Parish of Writtle (near Chelmsford in Essex County, north and east of London about 40 miles). Two surviving children who had been born in Writtle – John (born 1822) and Eliza (born 1826) made the move with him. In Bethnal Green, Thomas (1829), Mary Ann Lucy (1831), then William, Elizabeth Sarah (1836), George (1839), Charles (1842), and Edward (1843) were born. William came from a long line of bricklayer/builders who had lived in and worked out of Writtle ever since the late 1600s. His great, great grandfather John Murduck (baptised 14 January 1699) was a bricklayer. William’s great grandfather John Murduck (baptised 5 May 1734) was a bricklayer. So was his grandfather Thomas Murduck (baptised 18 September 1765). William’s uncle – his father’s younger brother, Robert John (known as John, baptised in the parish of Hornchurch, Essex, on 29 April 1804), was also a bricklayer. It`s probable that William’s father and uncle operated a ‘family style business’ constructing and repairing residential buildings in east London and west Essex for many years.
