  • The Gurnard Roman Villa
    Island Sites Revisited The Gurnard Roman Villa by C. T. WlTHERBY GENERAL NOTE HIS building was discovered in 1864 by Mr Edwin Joseph Smith and it is described by the Rev Edmund Kell, M.A., F.S.A., in the British Archaeological Association Reports T for 1866 (p. 351). This report, which includes a copy of the plan of the building prepared by Mr Smith, shows that parts of three rooms were found, the rooms running east and west. The original of Mr Smith's plan is held by the Cowes Urban District Council at Northwood House, Cowes. The whole of the villa has now been destroyed by the sea. EXACT POSITION This is not easy to determine, because Mr Smith's plan does not show any surface feature other than a hedge and the sea has encroached very greatly since 1866. However, the writer suggests that the most easterly of the three rooms of the villa was about 30 yards west, or north-west, of Marsh Cottage, Gurnard, which is itself about 50 yards north of the bridge over the Gurnard Luck. The site is two miles west of Cowes. The evidence to support this is as follows: (a) In his account, Mr Fell refers to the fact that traces of the villa ' appear to enter the garden of the nearby cottage', and later he mentions that a Mrs Grist lived in the cottage in 1866. (Jb) The writer has been informed by Mr Gladstone Flux, of Rew Street, Gurnard, that his grandfather told him that Marsh Cottage was built by a Mr Grist or Grisk.

Renouf, Super­ intendant of the West Wight Methodist Circuit, 80/47 by Rev. P. K. Parsons, Superintendent of the East Wight Circuit. A further deposit of West Wight material was made by Rev. A. Dodd of Totland Bay; this collection is now included with 80/1. This basic territorial division into East and West Wight, though it dates only from the Methodist unification of 1933-4, has been maintained in the scheduling of the minute and account books and miscellaneous papers. In detail the method of scheduling adopted has been to make a distinction between local circuit records and the records of individual chapels. Below these two classes a further distinction has been made between the Wesleyan Methodists, the Bible Christians (known as United Methodists from 1909) and the Primitive Methodists. For ease of access the registers, so often called for in the Record Office Search Room, have been listed together as MDR/--, . though with the distinction between circuits and individual chapels and between the various connections still.maintained. Only one "oddity" has come to light amongst these documents namely the United Methodist Free Church at West Cowes.

  • MONUMENTS to the MOTHERLAND the Lost Gothic Houses of John George Howard (1803-1890)1
    ANALYSIS | ANALYSE MONUMENTS TO THE MOTHERLAND The Lost Gothic Houses of John George Howard (1803-1890)1 JESSICA MACE, Ph.D., is a SSHRC (Social > JESSICA MACE Sciences and Humanities Research Council) postdoctoral fellow in affiliation with the Canada Research Chair in Urban Heritage at the Université du Québec à Montréal. earing the middle of the nineteenth Ncentury, the use of the Gothic Revival style for houses had been a mainstay of architecture in England for almost a hundred years. On the outskirts of the Empire, however, the situation was rather different. In the English colony of Upper Canada (present-day Southern Ontario as it was named from 1791-1841), the only known examples of early Gothic houses are few and appear to have existed in the context of present-day Toronto beginning in the 1830s. None of these homes survives, but all seem to have been designed by one of the province’s first and most prolific architects, John George Howard [1803-1890] (fig. 1). Although Howard designed a variety of Gothic houses, including small labourers’ cot- tages,2 this paper will provide an exam- ination of his designs for the houses of the elite. These homes, in particular, sig- nal an interest in Gothic for associations of prestige, lineage, and the assertion of social standing. Through an examina- tion of a heretofore unexplored aspect of Howard’s multi-faceted career (including new attributions), this article will reveal Howard’s ability to keep abreast of con- temporary architectural developments in England and to produce fashionable homes with desirable associations.
