AS THE REPRESENTATIVE OF THE KNIGHTLY PROPRIETORS OF LOSELEY, AND AS FULLY APPRECIATING THE CURIOUS ANCIENT DOCUMENTS THERE PRESERVED, THIS VOLUME IS DEDICATED, WITH SINCERE AND FRIENDLY RESPECT, BY HIS FAITHFUL AND OBEDIENT SERVANT, THE AUTHOR. New Kent Road, Sept. 8, 1835. ADVERTISEMENT. The following Collection of MSS. has been preserved at the venerable old mansion, Loseley, near Guildford in Surrey. They will be found of a mixed character, con nected with passages in history and biography, with the entertainments of the Court, with the internal regulations of the country under the Magistracy, and in some in stances with the minor relations of domestic life. They cannot be expected, in a general point of view, to com pete with the valuable historical collections of State Papers and Letters which have been derived from public depositories ; yet it may truly be said that they contain many papers on subjects of interest, to which none pa rallel are to be found in those collections, and they will afford, as the Editor conceives, a very correct idea of the state of society and political government in the 16th and early part of the 1 7th centuries.

Notes of some Papers not inserted at length 488 Index 501 INTRODUCTION. The reader of these Papers may imagine himself intro duced to the Muniment Room of an ancient hall in Surrey, of which the key had been lost, and its existence disre garded during an interval of two hundred years. He has approached, through a grove of lofty forest trees, the ex tensive front of the venerable mansion of stone, of which that depository of Family Records is an appendage. He enters the lofty hall round which the portraits of its former owners are arranged, depicted " in their habits as they lived ;" the sun-beams stream through the light shafts of the lofty embayed window, illumining the household coats of the family, emblazoned in the gorgeous tinctures of heraldry on the glass. He indulges perhaps in an an tiquarian reverie, and beholds in his mind's eye those venerable personages, traversing the spacious floor to wel come with obsequious formality the Sovereign whose image still remains suspended on the walls, originally placed there as a compliment conspicuous to his own eye, on occasion of a personal visit.* How will our reader find * In the Hall at Loseley are portraits of James the First and his Queen ; and a very large picture of Sir William More Molyneux (who died in 1760) and his family. There are also in the house original portraits of Edward VI., the Chancellor INTRODUCTION. this vision of his fancy confirmed, when, gliding as it were unnoticed through the ideal scene, as an insignificant actor in the drama of another age, he enters by our guidance the little chamber before mentioned, now by chance ac cessible, explores the ponderous oaken coffers which it contains ; paper after paper is taken out, inscribed in va rious and obsolete hands ; the autographs of King, of Peer, of Statesman, or Divine. Some relating to the events of their day, which have survived to " fill up chro nicles " in after times. Some to beings unnoticed in the roll of historic fame, but which incidentally illustrate the popular feelings and habits of the period. Such a disco very would stamp the picture sketched by fancy with some thing of reality ; such a vision may be summoned up at Loseley ; such are its manuscripts. We add a few prefatory notes on the demesne of Lose ley and its possessors. The manor of Loseley, which became in the sixteenth century the seat of the Mores, bore its present appella tion from the Saxon times. Osmund held it of King Ed ward the Confessor ; the Conqueror gave it to Roger de Montgomery, Earl of Arundel and Shrewsbury, who had distinguished himself as one of the principal leaders of the Norman army at the battle of Hastings. The extent of the demesne at this period seems to have been about four hundred acres. The name is probably that of a Saxon proprietor, Loth or Lot, compounded with the term ley expressing a plain, a pasture, an inclosed tract of ground ; indeed it was often written Lothesly, which so nearly ex presses its pronunciation at this day, that a stranger More, (perhaps a relative, although the arms do not agree with those of More of Loseley,) Ann Boleyn, and of the Mores from Sir William to Sir Poynings. INTRODUCTION. XI could scarcely err in the name ; which he certainly would by giving the first syllable the sound of the neuter verb to lose. Loseley is situate about two miles from Guildford, and from the left or west bank of the river Wey. That an cient town is supposed in the early period to have stood on the west side of the river, and by its castle and outworks to have occupied also the site of the present town on the east. This assertion is pretty well confirmed by the curious ancient vaultings still existing under the Angellnn at Guild ford, on the west side of the main street, and by the sup posed site of the ancient town being still marked out as the Bury fields;* and there is great probability that this last-mentioned spot was occupied in the time of the Ro mans, of whose presence, at least in the neighbourhood, undoubted evidence has been discovered. Loseley had, no doubt, from an early period, its manse or capital dwelling house fortified with a moat, according to the custom of the feudal age, some vestiges of which defence still remain. The demesne of Loseley passed into the possession of various persons by inheritance or purchase until the reign of Henry VIII. when it was purchased by Christopher More, esq.

  • Wren and the English Baroque
    What is English Baroque? • An architectural style promoted by Christopher Wren (1632-1723) that developed between the Great Fire (1666) and the Treaty of Utrecht (1713). It is associated with the new freedom of the Restoration following the Cromwell’s puritan restrictions and the Great Fire of London provided a blank canvas for architects. In France the repeal of the Edict of Nantes in 1685 revived religious conflict and caused many French Huguenot craftsmen to move to England. • In total Wren built 52 churches in London of which his most famous is St Paul’s Cathedral (1675-1711). Wren met Gian Lorenzo Bernini (1598-1680) in Paris in August 1665 and Wren’s later designs tempered the exuberant articulation of Bernini’s and Francesco Borromini’s (1599-1667) architecture in Italy with the sober, strict classical architecture of Inigo Jones. • The first truly Baroque English country house was Chatsworth, started in 1687 and designed by William Talman. • The culmination of English Baroque came with Sir John Vanbrugh (1664-1726) and Nicholas Hawksmoor (1661-1736), Castle Howard (1699, flamboyant assemble of restless masses), Blenheim Palace (1705, vast belvederes of massed stone with curious finials), and Appuldurcombe House, Isle of Wight (now in ruins). Vanburgh’s final work was Seaton Delaval Hall (1718, unique in its structural audacity). Vanburgh was a Restoration playwright and the English Baroque is a theatrical creation. In the early 18th century the English Baroque went out of fashion. It was associated with Toryism, the Continent and Popery by the dominant Protestant Whig aristocracy. The Whig Thomas Watson-Wentworth, 1st Marquess of Rockingham, built a Baroque house in the 1720s but criticism resulted in the huge new Palladian building, Wentworth Woodhouse, we see today.

  • Contaminated Land Strategy
    GUILDFORD BOROUGH COUNCIL CONTAMINATED LAND INSPECTION STRATEGY OCTOBER 2001 Adrian Maunders Director of Housing and Health Services Strategy prepared by: Housing and Health Services Guildford Borough Council Gary Durrant Millmead House Principal Environmental Health Officer Millmead Guildford Borough Council Guildford 01483 444373 Surrey, GU2 4BB [email protected] EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Guildford Borough Council is required to produce a strategy for the inspection of its district for contaminated land. This is then to be submitted to the Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs by July 2001, under the provisions of Part IIA of the Environmental Protection Act 1990. The priorities for dealing with contaminated land are aimed primarily at protecting human and animal health, controlled waters and ecosystems. In addition to these, prevention of damage to property and further contamination are included along with encouragement to voluntarily remediate brownfield sites. A five-year programme of inspection was commenced in April 2001 to run until April 2006. It is in 6 stages and based on a category system. Priority is given to land in areas of population and controlled waters and the final category being in undeveloped areas including the Green Belt. Sites that require urgent attention, whether through complaint or new information coming to light, will be dealt with immediately under procedures outlined in this strategy. Before land can be formally designated as contaminated it has to meet certain criteria, however once this has been attained, the information will be kept on a public register to be accessible during office hours. Guildford Borough Council will work in partnership with all other organisations and consultees specified within the guidance notes on this document and at every stage of the inspection process.

  • Honorary Freemen of the Borough of Guildford
    Honorary Freemen of the Borough of Guildford Introduction In past centuries, admission to the Freedom of a Borough conferred upon the recipient possession of recognisable privileges. In order to carry out certain trades or professions in a particular Borough, one had to be enrolled as a freeman and admission to the freedom was frequently necessary in order to have a vote in parliamentary elections. To become a freeman of Guildford, one had to be: (a) apprenticed to a freeman of the Borough for at least seven years, or (b) the eldest son of a freeman, or (c) by admission into the “Corporation”. Records kept in the Guildford Muniment Room contain the names of 1,061 persons admitted to the freedom of the Borough between 1655 and 1933 and also record the production of indentures of apprenticeship between 1655 and 1903. Typical entries in the two volumes of Borough Records known as the Freemen’s Books are reproduced below: 39. BARRETT, John, of Ockley. Appr. by ind. 7 Nov. 1796 to Jos.

  • Tudor Classical Architecture
    Birkbeck BA History of Art, Art and Architecture at the Tudor Courts, Year 4 Laurence Shafe To What Extent and For What Reasons Did the Classical Tradition of Architecture Appeal to Tudor Patrons During the Reigns of Henry VIII and Edward VI? Laurence Shafe Page 1 of 17 Laurence Shafe, Birkbeck BA History of Art, Art and Architecture at the Tudor Courts, Year 4 To What Extent and For What Reasons Did the Classical Tradition of Architecture Appeal to Tudor Patrons During the Reigns of Henry VIII and Edward VI? The conventional historical view has been that a classical tradition re-emerged in Italy and slowly spread across the rest of Europe. England was thought to be late in accepting the classical style and when it did it was ‘not permitted to develop beyond an initial stage of applied ornamentation’ as it was believed the intellectual understanding was missing.1 Buildings such as Somerset House and Longleat were seen as early examples but, apart from those designed by Inigo Jones, country houses in a classical style were not thought to have become popular until the eighteenth century. Recently Jonathan Foyle has put forward an alternative thesis. An emergent interest in humanistic studies by the English Court circle, coupled with the placement of English representatives in Rome, led to the purchase of Italian architectural treatises…by1490. These abstract principles and prescriptions were interpreted by the circle of Wolsey and his masons and embedded within an established architecture…just as the contemporary Florentines, Romans, Venetians, Milanese and French all forged Renaissance buildings to theoretical guidelines set within the identity of their own genius loci, and according to their own political motivations.2 Both views accept that there were classical elements but the key issue that separates them is whether such classical additions were well informed.
