OF NEWTON HALL AND STRATFORD HOUSE, IN THE COUNTY OF ESSEX. SIR, I SHOULD be shamefully deficient in the due respect I owe you, as well as gratitude, a sentiment which I hope will ever be a stranger to my heart, did I not embrace this opportunity of publicly acknowledging both. – The encouragement you have so liberally given to my History of a County, where the family of Henniker have so long resided, and over which your property so iv widely extends, from the earliest period of its publica= tion, and the continual favours you have conferred on me during the course of it, cannot but be deeply imprinted on my mind. Condescend, Sir, to confer on me the additional favor of accepting the Dedication of this Volume now offered to your patronage as a mark of that most perfect esteem and respect with which I remain, Sir, Your most obliged, And most obedient Humble servant, EDWARD HASTED.

  • Tonbridge Castle and Its Lords
    Archaeologia Cantiana Vol. 16 1886 TONBRIDGE OASTLE AND ITS LORDS. BY J. F. WADMORE, A.R.I.B.A. ALTHOUGH we may gain much, useful information from Lambard, Hasted, Furley, and others, who have written on this subject, yet I venture to think that there are historical points and features in connection with this building, and the remarkable mound within it, which will be found fresh and interesting. I propose therefore to give an account of the mound and castle, as far as may be from pre-historic times, in connection with the Lords of the Castle and its successive owners. THE MOUND. Some years since, Dr. Fleming, who then resided at the castle, discovered on the mound a coin of Con- stantine, minted at Treves. Few will be disposed to dispute the inference, that the mound existed pre- viously to the coins resting upon it. We must not, however, hastily assume that the mound is of Roman origin, either as regards date or construction. The numerous earthworks and camps which are even now to be found scattered over the British islands are mainly of pre-historic date, although some mounds may be considered Saxon, and others Danish. Many are even now familiarly spoken of as Caesar's or Vespa- sian's camps, like those at East Hampstead (Berks), Folkestone, Amesbury, and Bensbury at Wimbledon. Yet these are in no case to be confounded with Roman TONBEIDGHE CASTLE AND ITS LORDS. 13 camps, which in the times of the Consulate were always square, although under the Emperors both square and oblong shapes were used.* These British camps or burys are of all shapes and sizes, taking their form and configuration from the hill-tops on which they were generally placed.

Due to Sidney’s aggressive advocacy of a pro-Protestant English foreign policy during the 1570s and 1580s, and to the anti-Catholic biases of many British and American academics in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, previous studies have almost unanimously approached Sidney from an exclusively Protestant angle. This Sidney is the hero of English Protestant nationalism, the perfect poet-knight. The Sidney that emerges from the present study is much less unified: thoroughly anti- papal and anti-Spanish in his politics but warmly Catholic in his apparent metaphysical convictions. Catholic theology and devotional traditions were far from dead in Sidney’s England, and he was far from hostile toward them.

It is arranged on the same principle as The Complete Peerage (eight vols., 8vo., 1884-98), by the same Editor, save that the more convenient form of an alphabetical arrangement has, in this case, had to be abandoned for a chronological one; the former being practically impossible in treating of a dignity in which every holder may (and very many actually do) bear a different name from the grantee.

KENT, in Latin Cantium, hath its derivation from Cant, which imports a piece of land thrust into a nook or angle; and certainly the situation hath an aspect upon the name, and makes its etymology authentic. It is divided into five Laths, viz. St. Augustins, Shepway, Scray, Alresford, and Sutton at Hone; and these again are subdivided into their several bailywicks; as namely, St. AUGUSTINS comprehends BREDGE, which contains these Hundreds: 1 Ringesloe 2 Blengate 3 Whitstaple 4 West-gate 5 Downhamford 6 Preston 7 Bredge and Petham 8 Kinghamford and EASTRY, which con= tains these: 1 Wingham 2 Eastry 3 Corniloe 4 Bewesborough SHEPWAY is divided into STOWTING, and that into these hundreds: 1 Folkstone 2 Lovingberg 3 Stowting 4 Heane and SHEPWAY into these: 1 Bircholt Franchise 2 Streat 3 Worth 4 Newchurch 5 Ham 6 Langport 7 St. Martins 8 Aloes Bridge 9 Oxney SCRAY is distinguished into MILTON. comprehends 1 Milton 2 Tenham SCRAY. 1 Feversham 2 Bocton under Blean 3 Felborough CHART and LONGBRIDGE. 1 Wye 2 Birch-Holt Ba= rony 3 Chart and Long-bridge 4 Cale-hill SEVEN HUN= DREDS. 1 Blackbourne 2 Tenderden 3 Barkley 4 Cranbrook 5 Rolvenden 6 Selbrightenden 7 Great Bern= field ALRESFORD is resolved into EYHORN is divided into 1 Eyhorn 2 Maidstone 3 Gillingham and 4 Chetham HOO 1 Hoo 2 Shamell 3 Toltingtrough 4 Larkfield 5 Wrotham and TWYFORD. 1 Twyford 2 Littlefield 3 Lowy of Tun= bridge 4 Brenchly and Hormonden 5 Marden 6 Little Bern= field 7 Wallingston 2 SUTTON at Hone, does only comprehend the bailywick of Sutton at Hone, and that lays claim to these hundreds.

DENNETT, PRINTER, UNION BUILDINGS, LEATHER LANE. iii PREFACE. The subject of the present work, after a protracted consideration of some years, was entered upon by the author with the greatest diffidence, from a consciousness of the uncertainty as to how far it might be possible, by personal application, to obtain the intelligence absolutely necessary to make it acceptable. He was sensible that nothing short of a disposition all but universal in his favour could enable him to give it such a stamp of originality and novelty as might warrant the expectation of ultimate success. The difficulties here intimated, however, have been surmounted even to an extent exceeding his most sanguine anticipation; and in return the author can claim for himself, with the greatest confidence, the merit of not having abused so unexpected and liberal a patronage.

  • 33. Whereas Many of the People Other Than Those Known to Be Merchants
    VI–102 THE AGE OF TRESPASS: POLITICS AND INSTITUTIONS SEC. 6 33. Whereas many of the people other than those known to be merchants feel much aggrieved and injured by the Statute of Merchants made at Acton Burnell,18 we ordain that hereafter this statute shall hold only as between merchant and merchant and with regard to dealings made between them. ...19 38. Item, we ordain that the Great Charter of Liberties and the Forest Charter issued by King Henry, son of King John, shall be observed in all their particulars, and that points in the said charters of liberties which are doubtful shall be explained in the next parliament after this by the advice of the baronage, the justices, and other persons learned in the law. And this is to be done because we are unable to attend to the matter during our term [of office]. 39. Item, we ordain that the chancellor, the treasurer, the chief justices of both benches, the chancellor of the exchequer, the treasurer of the wardrobe, the steward of the king’s household, and all justices, sheriffs, escheators, constables, investigators [named] for any cause whatsoever, and all other bailiffs and ministers of the king, whenever they receive their offices and bailiwicks, shall be sworn to keep and observe all the ordinances made by the prelates, earls, and barons for that purpose elected and assigned [to maintain] every one of those [ordinances] without contravening them in any particular. 40. Item, we ordain that in each parliament one bishop, two earls, and two barons shall be assigned to hear and determine all plaints of those wishing to complain of the king’s ministers, whichever they may be, who have contravened the ordinances aforesaid.
