  • Chapel of Longleat House, Wiltshire
    case study 11 Chapel of Longleat House, Wiltshire 1684 Private chapel, extant but gothicized1 Architect: William Taylor A London surveyor, active during the reigns of Charles II and James II, Taylor was employed by the first Viscount Weymouth from 1682 onwards to carry out works at Longleat House, including the fitting up of the chapel. A few years later Weymouth employed him for the building of a new chapel at Minsterley, his house in Shropshire.2 Historical note Few Elizabethan estates had a chapel. Among the great prodigy houses, Hardwick was unusual in having a functioning chapel.3 At Longleat the archi- tectural features of the former chapel, including the chapel window and but- tresses, were dismantled before 1580 at the request of Sir John Thynne’s mason because they would “much disvergure” the overall design of the building.4 According to Annabel Ricketts the seventeenth-century chapel was L-shaped, located on the ground floor and oriented to the north-west. The shape probably resulted from the symmetry of the overall plan.5 The arrange- ment of the chapel was part of a major rearrangement of the whole house, commissioned by the first Viscount Weymouth and executed by William Taylor. However, Weymouth also took advice from Wren. In 1683 he wrote to his brother “he would be grateful for Sir Christopher Wren’s opinion.”6 1 Annabel Ricketts, The English Country House Chapel, Building a Protestant Tradition (Reading: Spire books, 2007), 274. 2 Henry Lancaster, “Thynne Thomas, first Viscount Weymouth (bap. 1640, d. 1714), politician,” in Oxford Dictionary of National Biography Online (2008), doi:10.1093/ref:odnb/27424.

  • Together We Learn
    Horningsham Primary School Together we learn Together we learn Welcome Together we learn Horningsham is a happy, vibrant and creative primary school where we aim to create a secure and lively environment in which each child can grow to their full potential. It is the combined effort of all concerned that makes our school such a happy and successful one. We hope you will become an active part of your child’s education and that we can maintain a close working relationship between school and home. Foreword from Lord Bath Living in Corsley as I did when I was a child, there was never a chance that I could attend Horningsham Primary School; but I certainly sent my two children there. It played such an important part in their early lives; a building that was architecturally exciting, with an atmosphere of extended family which took them into its formative embrace. Prior to its construction there had been a variety of very small schools within the village, but this was the first occasion that one had been created upon a purpose- built site. This was in 1844 at the instigation of Harriet, the third Marchioness; and there was an extra classroom added in 1893. Harriet was my great-great- grandmother, but the school took its name from her son, John Alexander, the 4th Marquess, who assumed the onerous duties as head of the family at the tender age of six. It was of course from him that I derive my own name, although my age was ten times greater than his before I was required to assume the same mantle of responsibility.

  • John Denham: New Letters and Documents
    JOHN DENHAM: NEW LETTERS AND DOCUMENTS HILTON KELLIHER IT was inevitable that the fundamental divisions made in English society by the Civil Wars should affect the ranks of the poets and playwrights, and unsurprising that the former largely and the latter almost entirely would adhere to the king's party. Not that, from our more distant vantage-point at least, the literary advantage lay with the larger faction. When the lines were drawn the Parliamentarians could muster Milton, Marvell, the young Dryden, and, proximum longo intervalloj the elderly George Wither, who had done his best work in the reign of James L Edmund Waller occupied an unenviable position between the two camps; while Cowley, Denham, Fanshawe, Lovelace, Quarks, and Suckling, along with the dramatists Davenant, the two Killigrews and Shirley, are the most notable of those who either served Charles I or his successor in exile or suffered directly on their behalf. Among the latter party John Denham (fig. i) occupied in political terms a moderately distinguished place, acting as agent at home and as envoy abroad to both Charles Stuarts in turn. As a poet he is chiefly remembered as the author of Cooper^s Hill^ the first great topographical poem in the language, and he is sometimes said to be the one who did most to promote the transition of English verse from the Metaphysical to the Augustan mode. The purpose of the present rather disjointed notes is to supplement the very different but equally indispensable accounts given by his earliest biographer, John Aubrey,^ and his latest, Brendan O'Hehir,^ with some letters and documents that have recently come to light, more especially relating to his life in exile on the Continent between September 1648 and March 1653.

  • The Impact of Commercialization in Early Fourteenth-Century England: Some Evidence from the Manors of Glastonbury Abbey
    .J The impact of commercialization in early fourteenth-century England: some evidence from the manors of Glastonbury Abbey by Ian Rush .... Abstract This article assesses the impact of grain commercialization on the diet and wages of stipendiary famuli on a number of manors held by the abbot of Glastonbury in southern and south-western England at the beginning of the fourteenth century. Using correlation and regression analyses, it shows that grain commercialization had a negative impact on workers' living standards. Specifically, high grain commer- cialization seems to have caused, or at least contributed to, the distribution of low-value, and thus low-quality, grains to stipendiaryfamuli. Such actions seem to have been an important aspect of an estate policy that emphasized the exploitation of the market and the labourer in search of profit. The early fourteenth century has often been called a time of crisis. Although the medieval English economy was just beginning to realize its greatest potential, the period was one of intense population pressure, high inflation and environmental disasters. ~ Some historians have argued that the increasing population of the preceding centuries led to increased urbanization, and both in turn stimulated increased commercialization in the form of more trading institu- tions such as markets and fairs, occupational specialization, the production and use of more coinage and advanced agricultural techniques. These agricultural changes increased the availability of grain and livestock products for the market. Thus, the English economy was quite strong by the early fourteenth century, and seemingly able to support the substantially increased population. One exponent of the optimistic case, Graeme Snooks, has suggeste d that the increasingly commercial economy of England effected or at least facilitated a rise in real gross domestic product (GDP) during the twelfth and thirteenth centuries.

  • Havenbird Limited
    Manor Farm Corsley Warminster Wiltshire BA12 7QE Consultation Response to Planning Application 14/08778/FUL To Jemma Foster Economic Development and Planning, Wiltshire Council, Trowbridge, BA14 8JN Dear Ms Foster I am writing to OBJECT to the above application for the following reasons. 1) History. Manor Farm Corsley is a listed grade II* building which was constructed by Sir John Thynne who built Longleat at the same time in the 1560s. Many famous Elizabethans stayed here including the Thynne family, Sir Walter Raleigh and his brother Carew. My family and I have lived at Manor Farm Corsley for 20 years, and the house today is virtually the same as it was when it was built 450 years ago. 2) Turbine distance from the house. The turbine will be seen from the top and first floor of the house including what is known locally as “Raleigh’s Room”, in the winter and spring when the copse to the north is not in leaf. The turbine is 1,010 metres away from the house. 3) Turbine distance from grounds and setting. The turbine will be seen from the grounds all year round, some 800 metres distance away. The turbine will be just 600 metres from Manor Farm’s wider setting on the edge of the land under our ownership and historically part of Lord Bath’s Longleat Estate. 4) Visitors. Over the years we have received many requests from the local community to hold events at Manor Farm, and about 1,000 visitors on average come to these events each year. These include: - the Elizabethan Evening – those who attend this annual event for outdoor theatre - Warminster and Frome Arts Societies to paint in the grounds - Corsley Festival Choir and their guests - The Church for various events - Local schools - Parish lunch and outdoor sports.

There is the usual lively report from the School and photos of the Luncheon Club’s Christmas Lunch.

  • THE ORIGIN of the THYNNES. I Have Always Taken Some Interest In
    193 THE ORIGIN OF THE THYNNES. I have always taken some interest in the origin of the Thynnes of Longleat, not only as being myself their senior heir-general, but also because, as is well known, the alleged origin of their name is very peculiar. The evidence seems to me, at least, so unsatisfactory that I should like to treat the subject in a critical spirit. The best account, beyond question, is that written by Mr. Morris in 1855,1 Mr. Botfield's "Stemmata Botvilliana" being based on the researches of Mr. Morris. But, at the outset, I dispute wholly the supposition that the "inne" from which the family took its name, could be their residence at Stretton. Mr. Morris instances "Talbot lune," the Earl of Shrewsbury's town house at Shrewsbury; and Mr. Botfield appeals to Lincoln's Inn, Gray's Inn, Furnival's Inn, etc. But these all prove that the " Inn" was the town residence of a country noble ; it was certainly not the name of his own home in the country, still less the name of a small freeholder's home. The idea, I do not hesitate to say, is simply out of the question. My next point is that I can find no evidence of a Botfield taking the name of Thynne (" of th'inne "). Botfields we have, and Thynnes we have; but no Botfield speaks of a Thynne as a relative, nor does any Thynne so speak of a Botfield ; nor did any of the family style himself Thynne alias Botfield, till they began to rise in position under Henry VIII.
