    CHURCH OF ALL SAINTS Holdenby, Northamptonshire 1 West Smithfield London EC1A 9EE Tel: 020 7213 0660 Fax: 020 7213 0678 Email: [email protected] £1.50 www.visitchurches.org.uk Registered Charity No. 258612 Spring 2007 Holdenby, Northamptonshire CHURCH OF ALL SAINTS by Christopher Dalton (Church and architectural historian, writer on buildings and bells, architectural photographer and lay canon of Hereford Cathedral) HISTORY The name Holdenby dates back to the time of Scandinavian settlements and derives from the personal name ‘Halfdan’ (or Haldane) and the word ‘by’ meaning farm. The place is mentioned in Domesday Book (1086) and is first recorded as having a rector about 1222. Today there is scarcely any sign of houses near the church, the village having been removed when Holdenby House, Sir Christopher Hatton’s great mansion, was completed in 1583. Sir Christopher, grandson of Elizabeth – the Holdenby family heiress – and Henry Hatton, was born here in 1540 and rose to become Lord Chancellor. After the Civil War his mansion was largely demolished and the present house dates mostly from 1873–88. From Hatton’s building there remain three impressive archways, one of which was rebuilt in 1659.

CHARLES MARKHAM, P R E F A C E. ———— HIS history of an English family — which for nearly four T centuries has been " happy, in that they were not over happy ; on fortune's cap they were not the very button, nor the soles of her shoes" — was undertaken by me at the request of some members of the family. It has formed my " leisure's labour" for several years, and has now been brought to an end — I wish I could add completed. But I would say, with our great lexicographer, that, "in this work, when it shall be found that much is omitted, let it not be forgotten that much likewise is performed." Such as it is, this work has given me pleasure to do ; for, as the prophet of the age very truly says in Modern Painters, that " next to the Gods man was always anxious to know something about his ancestors ; fond of exalting the memory, and telling or painting the history of old rulers and benefactors ; yet full of an enthusiastic confidence in himself, as having in many ways advanced beyond the best efforts of past time ; and eager to record his own doings for future fame."

Subsidiary/cadet families are usually grouped under the oldest, richest, or most influential stem family. Female MPs are counted with their birth families, or, if not born into a parliamentary family, with their husband’s family.

HOLDENBY, NORTHAMPTONSHIRE; ITS MANORS, CHURCH AND HOUSE1 By ALBERT HARTSHORXE, F.S.A. Holdenby is, on many accounts, one of the most interesting places in Northamptonshire. It has a long and well-ascertained manorial history : the church, not large, has much dignity, and presents a striking appearance, even in a county singularly favouied architecturally. The account of Holdenby has fallen, naturally, into the scheme of two very considerable county histories of the old stately type such as used to be looked upon, and must, indeed, still be justly regarded as the foundation stones of every great English library. Concerning Bridges's History of Northamptonshire it may be conveniently stated now that its author was a Northamptonshire man, born at Barton Seagrave in 1666.

The " Akmada Hoi-sk," Wicston (158S). Wcf'' MEMORIALS OF OLD NORTHAMPTONSHIRE. EDITED BY ALICE DRYDEN. With many Illustrations. LOxNDON: BEMROSE AND SONS, LIMITED, 4, SNOW HILL, E.G. ; AND DERBY. 1903. AU Rights Reserved. N^X>7€ PREFACE. NORTHAMPTONSHIRE is so rich m interest, both historically and architecturally, that it has been thought that another book, which does not encroach upon the provinces of the county history or guide-book, but which seeks to illustrate certain objects of interest and historic association, would not be out of place. In considering the subjects, I thought that many people would like to have some of my father's notes on the county. I had intended to include a few that were unpub- lished, but on further consideration I found they were so incomplete that instead I have reprinted some that were only accessible to a limited number in the pages of the Architectural Societies' Reports. I have endeavoured, by cutting these down, to bring them to a level of more general interest, without impairing the value of the con- tribution. My thanks are due to all those who have helped with illustrations, but especially to the Writers who have so Gotch, kindly contributed chapters; also to Mr. J. A. Mr. C. A. Markham, Father Gerard, S.J., Mr. Henry Ellis, and others, who have helped me with various notes. Alice Dryden. CONTENTS. Page A.
