  • The Rees and Carrington Extracts
    THE REES AND CARRINGTON EXTRACTS CUMULATIVE INDEX – PEOPLE, PLACES AND THINGS – TO 1936 (INCLUSIVE) This index has been compiled straight from the text of the ‘Extracts’ (from January 1914 onwards, these include the ‘Rees Extracts’. – in the Index we have differentiated between them by using the same date conventions as in the text – black date for Carrington, Red date for Rees). In listing the movements, particularly of Kipling and his family, it is not always clear when who went where and when. Thus, “R. to Academy dinner” clearly refers to Kipling himself going alone to the dinner (as, indeed would have been the case – it was, in the 1890s, a men-only affair). But “Amusing dinner, Mr. Rhodes’s” probably refers to both of them going, and has been included as an entry under both Kipling, Caroline, and Kipling, Rudyard. There are many other similar events. And there are entries recording that, e.g., “Mrs. Kipling leaves”, without any indication of when she had come – but if it’s not in the ‘Extracts’ (though it may well have been in the original diaries) then, of course, it has not been possible to index it. The date given is the date of the diary entry which is not always the date of the event. We would also emphasise that the index does not necessarily give a complete record of who the Kiplings met, where they met them and what they did. It’s only an index of what remains of Carrie’s diaries, as recorded by Carrington and Rees. (We know a lot more about those people, places and things from, for example, Kipling’s published correspondence – but if they’re not in the diary extracts, then they won’t be found in this index.) Another factor is that both Carrington and Rees quite often mentions a name without further explanation or identification.

  • Captain Andrew Aspden the Private Secretary to the Earl of Wessex, Bagshot Park, Bagshot, Surrey, GU19 5PL
    Captain Andrew Aspden The Private Secretary to the Earl of Wessex, Bagshot Park, Bagshot, Surrey, GU19 5PL 14th April 2021 Dear Earl of Wessex, I was deeply saddened to learn of the death of His Royal Highness The Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, and I join with the nation in mourning his loss. I write to express my deepest sympathy to you and The Countess of Wessex. On behalf of the Rayner farming family of Royal Berkshire, the whole family gives thanks for His Royal Highness’ dedicated service to the nation, and commitment to making a difference via so many charitable causes. His Royal Highness’ constant support to her Majesty throughout seven decades of marriage has been a true inspiration. I was extremely privileged that His Royal Highness was able to attend my Mayor’s ball in May 2013 at Guards Polo Club. His Royal Highness made it an incredibly special evening, as he took time to speak to the three school choirs, including the choir from St Mary’s School Ascot, and all our guests. With His Royal Highness The Prince Philip’s help, we raised a lot of money for The Prince Philip Trust Fund that night. His Royal Highness offered great support and wise words while my team was building the Carriage Driving Courses in the grounds of Windsor Castle. We will miss seeing His Royal Highness driving in his carriages and Land Rover around Home Park Private while we are preparing for the Royal Windsor Horse Show. I have many fond memories and encounters to remember His Royal Highness Prince Philip by.

  • WINDLESHAM WALKS Walk No.15
    WINDLESHAM WALKS Walk No.15 Start/Parking: Bagshot Youth Centre Car Park. Distance: 2.25km, 1.75 miles approx. Type of walk: Some footpath but mainly paved road, slight hills. Leaving the Youth Centre, turn right on the footpath passing Connaught Middle School. Shortly after an abrupt right hand bend the front entrance to the school is reached. Turn left and immediately left again into the footpath which runs between Connaught Park estate and more established housing on the right. Pass under the railway bridge built for the opening of the Ascot and Aldershot branch of the London and South Western Railway in 1878. This bridge is quaintly named “The Dry Arch”. Continue uphill, and enjoy the recreation ground on the right which Recreation Ground was created for children and dog walkers. Turn left into Chapel Lane and very shortly on the left, is “Woodside Cottage”. On this site in 1757, Lady Amelia Butler of Bagshot Park gave £100 for the building of a “Pest House”. This was to allow for the isolation of those affected by infectious diseases common at the time, such as smallpox, typhoid and diphtheria. It was renamed “Woodside Mortuary Chapel Cottage” in 1934. Almost immediately on the right and easily missed is the entrance to a picturesque burial ground, which is well worth a visit. Following the footpath straight ahead, bordered by ancient headstones, one comes to a Mortuary Chapel, which now occupies the sight of Bagshot’s first Parish Church consecrated in 1821. This church was in use when the present Church of St.

  • Bagshot Park Conservation Area November 1996
    Forward Planning Division BAGSHOT PARK CONSERVATION AREA NOVEMBER 1996 “working with the community for a safe, green and clean environment” PLAN\BAGPARK-CONAREA BAGSHOT PARK CONSERVATION AREA Boundary of the Conservation Area The conservation area comprises Bagshot Park Mansion, together with its gardens and surrounding fields and Home Farm, the whole being known as Bagshot Park. It lies just to the north of Bagshot and the A30. Church Road Conservation Area lies just to the southwest. The boundary is shown on the attached plan. Historic Appraisal The importance of this area lies in its historic associations and its architectural integrity, - the layout of the Park and the Farm being largely unchanged since the present Mansion was built and the retention of most of the buildings constructed in association with it. The first known reference to a Royal park at Bagshot is in 1486 with the granting of "the office of the keeper of the Park of Bagshot". In Stuart times James I and Charles I often stayed in their lodge at Bagshot whilst hunting in the area. This building was destroyed in the Civil War and a further lodge, a large country house which replaced it, was demolished in 1878 following the construction of the present house completed in 1879. In the mid 19th century the Prince Consort was in charge of Bagshot Park and was probably responsible for modernising the farm, later known as Bagshot Park Farm. The present house was built for Queen Victoria's third son, HRH Prince Arthur and his wife, the Duke and Duchess of Connaught.
