  • Epping Forest District Bishops Hall Lambourne Tq
    EPPING FOREST DISTRICT BISHOPS HALL LAMBOURNE TQ 475 953 Remnants of design and planting under the auspices of Lord Lambourne, who served as president of the RHS (1919-1928). He was well known for his interest in rare plants, both hardy and exotics, which were raised within his series of specialised glasshouses and within the grounds of Bishops Hall representing late 19th and early 20th century work. HISTORIC DEVELOPMENT The Bishops of Norwich held the estate of Bishops Hall in Lambourne from the 13th century until 1536 when the estate was transferred to King Henry VIII. The principal building was situated at the site known as Bishops Moat. Sometime during the ownership of William Walker (d. 1708) and his son Thomas (d. 1748) the manor house was relocated further west from Bishops Moat. The Lockwoods purchased the manor of Lambourne in 1782. By the 1830’s with the addition of Bishops Hall, which became the family seat, the estate comprised the manors of Bishops Hall, Lambourne, St. John’s (originally Lambourne-and-Abridge) and Dews Hall (demolished by mid-19th century). It was not until Lieut. Col. The Right Hon. Amelius Richard Mark Lockwood, P.S., C.V.O., M.P., K.L., J.P. took over the estate that evidence of major work on the property began. In 1910, Col. Lockwood was described as a, ‘… keen hunter, with a stuffed woodcock displayed in Bishops Hall shot by King Edward VII when the guest of Col. Lockwood. The entry for Bishops Hall in the same publication is: ‘…his picturesque Essex seat,’ ‘standing in about one hundred acres of grounds and commanding wide and extensive views, the fine old mansion, Bishops Hall, show great advantage amid the exquisitely laid out gardens, with Col.

Have Your Say! Dr Andrea Fejős and Professor Christopher Willett attended and, with the permission of the Chairman, addressed the meeting to ask that proposed Traffic Regulation Order (TRO) T29664816 [Manor Road, Colchester] be approved. Although the TRO had been recommended for rejection by Colchester Borough Council, due to lack of local support, Dr Fejős argued that the Committee could still approve it. The TRO had been requested by Dr Fejős and Professor Willett in order to stop vehicles parking in front of a flat’s front window which they noted was the only alternative exit/fire escape for the property. It would prevent such parking and involve moving the parking space to further along the road, on the opposite side of the road.

  • © Georgina Green ~ Epping Forest Though the Ages
    © Georgina Green ~ Epping Forest though the Ages Epping Forest Preface On 6th May 1882 Queen Victoria visited High Beach where she declared through the Ages "it gives me the greatest satisfaction to dedicate this beautiful Forest to the use and enjoyment of my people for all time" . This royal visit was greeted with great enthusiasm by the thousands of people who came to see their by Queen when she passed by, as their forefathers had done for other sovereigns down through the ages . Georgina Green My purpose in writing this little book is to tell how the ordinary people have used Epping Fo rest in the past, but came to enjoy it only in more recent times. I hope to give the reader a glimpse of what life was like for those who have lived here throughout the ages and how, by using the Forest, they have physically changed it over the centuries. The Romans, Saxons and Normans have each played their part, while the Forest we know today is one of the few surviving examples of Medieval woodland management. The Tudor monarchs and their courtiers frequently visited the Forest, wh ile in the 18th century the grandeur of Wanstead House attracted sight-seers from far and wide. The common people, meanwhile, were mostly poor farm labourers who were glad of the free produce they could obtain from the Forest. None of the Forest ponds are natural . some of them having been made accidentally when sand and gravel were extracted . while others were made by Man for a variety of reasons.
