Deposited by Messrs. Boulton Sons and Sandeman for the Cannon Brewery. Inventory compiled: LAccession 162] March 1968 D/ECb Introduction This collection consists of deeds incident to the conveyance of the vhole of the Hoddesdon Brewery and all its licensed houses in 1866 and titl e deeds of some of those houses and of others that were acquired later. The expansion of Hoddesdon Brewery dates from its purchase by William Whittingstall from Rene Briand in 1781. From that date til l his death in 1803, rfhittingstall systematically enlarged the brewery*s commercial outlets by buying up a number of public houses in the surrounding district. Messrs. John Christie and George Cathrow bought the property from Vhittingstall's executors and at the death of Cathrow in 1842 it was sold privately to a new partnership of Messrs. Peter Christie, John Back and Robert Hunt. After Peter Christie's death and when 3ack and Hunt had retired to their country estates, the firm was conveyed in 1866 to Charles Peter Christie. On his death in 1898 it was turned into a public company which 30 years later was absorbed by the Cannon Brewery of London, later controlled by Taylor, Valker and Co. and now by the Ind Coope combine.

  • The Impact of Agricultural Depression and Land
    THE IMPACT OF AGRICULTURAL DEPRESSION AND LAND OWNERSHIP CHANGE ON THE COUNTY OF HERTFORDSHIRE, c.1870-1914 Julie Patricia Moore Submitted to the University of Hertfordshire in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of PhD September 2010 2 ABSTRACT The focus of this research has been on how the county of Hertfordshire negotiated the economic, social and political changes of the late nineteenth century. A rural county sitting within just twenty miles of the nation’s capital, Hertfordshire experienced agricultural depression and a falling rural population, whilst at the same time seeing the arrival of growing numbers of wealthy, professional people whose economic focus was on London but who sought their own little patch of the rural experience. The question of just what constituted that rural experience was played out in the local newspapers and these give a valuable insight into how the farmers of the county sought to establish their own claim to be at the heart of the rural, in the face of an alternative interpretation which was grounded in urban assumptions of the social value of the countryside as the stable heart of the nation. The widening of the franchise, increased levels of food imports and fears over the depopulation of the villages reduced the influence of farmers in directing the debate over the future of the countryside. This study is unusual in that it builds a comprehensive picture of how agricultural depression was experienced in one farming community, before considering how farmers’ attempts to claim ownership of the ‘special’ place of the rural were unsuccessful economically, socially and politically.

  • The Chauncys of Little Munden
    The Chauncys of Little Munden From a series of articles written by Jackie Morris for the parish newsletter, 2001 reproduced with Jackie's kind permission. Over the next few weeks, I shall be printing a brief history of the Chauncys who as ancestors of the late Balfour family of Munden Parva contributed greatly to village life. The Chauncy family came to Little Munden in the early 1800's, Charles of Dane End signing the vestry book in 1815 of Little Munden Church and taking churchwardens office a year later and in 1817 that of overseer. In 1816, his younger brother Nathaniel Snell, purchased the manor of Little Munden and took residence in Green End House. The Chauncy surname was that of their mother, Amelia, who on December 15th 1781, married her cousin, Charles Snell of Theobalds, Cheshunt and two years later had him take her name by royal licence given April 29th 1783. Seven children were born to them, four girls and three boys of whom their first, Charles, died a fortnight old, the second taking his name. Nathaniel, their youngest son, born at Theobalds (December 29th 1789) married on August 29th 1814 Ann Oram, daughter of Colonel J. Alexander Bannerman, at Hackney Parish Church and on arrival at Little Munden they began to take a leading part in Hertfordshire social life. Having rich West Indian investments he entertained lavishly at Green End, his vivacious wife playing hostess to large numbers of gentry, organising soirees in their mansions with archery parties and feastings. At full moon, to cater for people from afar, horses and carriages filled the lanes to Green End House where quadrilles, waltzes and country dancing accompanied by harp and organ lasted far into the night.
