  • St Marylebone Parish Church Records of Burials in the Crypt 1817-1853
    Record of Bodies Interred in the Crypt of St Marylebone Parish Church 1817-1853 This list of 863 names has been collated from the merger of two paper documents held in the parish office of St Marylebone Church in July 2011. The large vaulted crypt beneath St Marylebone Church was used as place of burial from 1817, the year the church was consecrated, until it was full in 1853, when the entrance to the crypt was bricked up. The first, most comprehensive document is a handwritten list of names, addresses, date of interment, ages and vault numbers, thought to be written in the latter half of the 20th century. This was copied from an earlier, original document, which is now held by London Metropolitan Archives and copies on microfilm at London Metropolitan and Westminster Archives. The second document is a typed list from undertakers Farebrother Funeral Services who removed the coffins from the crypt in 1980 and took them for reburial at Brookwood cemetery, Woking in Surrey. This list provides information taken from details on the coffin and states the name, date of death and age. Many of the coffins were unidentifiable and marked “unknown”. On others the date of death was illegible and only the year has been recorded. Brookwood cemetery records indicate that the reburials took place on 22nd October 1982. There is now a memorial stone to mark the area. Whilst merging the documents as much information as possible from both lists has been recorded. Additional information from the Farebrother Funeral Service lists, not on the original list, including date of death has been recorded in italics under date of interment.

  • Chapter 15: Devonshire, Weymouth and New Cavendish Streets
    DRAFT CHAPTER 15 Devonshire, Weymouth and New Cavendish Streets The three main cross streets between Marylebone High Street and Great Portland Street were developed over some thirty years from the 1760s. Always subservient to their bigger north–south neighbours, these streets generally offered smaller houses and a less pronounced architectural character. Indeed, until the mid nineteenth century there were few buildings on Devonshire and Weymouth Streets immediately west of Harley Street, where the street-grid became appreciably narrower. Today, though motor traffic can be unrelenting, the area has a quiet tone with pedestrians often thin on the ground. As with much of the Howard de Walden estate within the purlieus of Harley Street, a mixed building fabric is now given over mostly to medical or institutional use. Though these streets are the main focus of this chapter, the various mews opening off them, which give the area much of its character, are also described, while the minor cross street Duchess Street is touched on in terms of its general historical development. Some properties at the west end on these streets, in the vicinity of Marylebone High Street and Beaumont Street, are included with those areas in Chapters 2 and 16; likewise others at the eastern end, around Hallam and Great Portland Streets, are treated in Chapters 21 and 22. A major excision is New Cavendish Street east of Great Portland Street. This was developed as Upper Marylebone Street and is discussed separately in Chapter 25.

  • Chapter 13: Wimpole Street and Devonshire Place
    DRAFT CHAPTER 13 Wimpole Street and Devonshire Place Wimpole Street, Upper Wimpole Street and Devonshire Place make up one of the longest thoroughfares on the Howard de Walden estate, extending more than half a mile from Henrietta Place to Marylebone Road. The names commemorate Wimpole near the Cambridgeshire–Hertfordshire border, a seat of the Cavendish and Harley families until 1740, and the Cavendish dukedom. Development began at the south end in the 1720s and after a long hiatus progressed northwards block by block, finally reaching completion in the 1790s. Most of the original houses to survive are in Upper Wimpole Street and Devonshire Place, where irrespective of later alterations the grand terraces still convey a strong sense of late-Georgian urbanity. Together with the more popularly renowned Harley Street, the whole stretch of road now forms the core of Marylebone’s private medical quarter. First development, design and planning Nothing now survives of the first phase of development in the 1720s, which took place in the short stretch of road south of Wigmore Street, closest to Cavendish Square. At first, building was concentrated at the corners of the more fully developed east–west streets, beginning with a house of c.1724–6 at the north-west corner with Henrietta Street (now Place), part of the terrace there but with its entrance in Wimpole Street. Seven more houses followed in Survey of London © Bartlett School of Architecture, University College London Website: https://www.ucl.ac.uk/bartlett/architecture/research/survey-london 1 DRAFT 1726 further north in two short terraces either side of an east–west mews street called Mill Hill Mews, and the west corner with Wigmore Street was developed as part of Thomas Little’s take on that street in the later 1730s.
