  • THE GREAT BATH ROAD, 1700-1830 Brendaj.Buchanan
    THE GREAT BATH ROAD, 1700-1830 BrendaJ.Buchanan The great turnpike highway from London to the spa city of Bath is surrounded by legend and romance, 1 which have come to obscure the fact that at no time in the period studied was there any one single Bath Road. Instead, from the beginning of the eighteenth century there were created over the years and in a patchy, disorganized sequence, some fifteen turnpike trusts which with varying degrees of efficiency undertook the improvement of the roads under their legislative care. Not until the mid-eighteenth century was it possible to travel the whole distance between capital and provincial city on improved roads, and even then the route was not fixed. Small changes were frequently made as roads were straightened and corners removed, the crowns of hills lowered and valley bottoms raised. On a larger scale, new low-level sections were built to replace older upland routes, and most significant of all, some whole roads went out of use as traffic switched to routes which were better planned and engineered by later trusts. And at the time when the turnpike roads were about to face their greatest challenge from the encroaching railways in the 1830s, there were at the western end of the road to Bath not one but two equally important routes into the city, via Devizes and Melksham, or through Calne and Chippenham along the line known to-day as the A4. This is now thought of as the traditional Bath Road, but it can be demonstrated that it is only one of several lines which in the past could lay claim to that title.

It wasn’t lost on me that the limitations that were placed on us arrived during Lent, the season traditionally associated with self-limitation. But the traditional giving up of chocolate pales into insignificance in comparison with not being able to see friends, or to go to school or church, let alone being unable to have cuddles with a new grand- child, or not being allowed to visit a relative who is dying.

  • 1 DRAFT October 2016 © University of London Chippenham Roman
    1 DRAFT October 2016 © University of London Chippenham Roman Catholicism, Protestant Nonconformists and Other Religions Roman Catholicism Chippenham was not a centre for Roman Catholicism in the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. In 1676 no Catholics were recorded in the parish, nor in the parish of Kellaways, then held in plurality with Chippenham.1 By 1706 a single Catholic, Joane Procter, was resident in the parish.2 There is no record of other Catholics resident or owning property in the parish in the early eighteenth century, although in 1717 properties owned by absentee Catholic landlords were registered in the Hundred of Chippenham. These properties, in the Forest of Pewsham, were owned by Elizabeth, Dowager Countess of Castlehaven, and by the Cary family of Torre Abbey, Torquay.3 No Catholics were recorded in Chippenham in the 1767 returns of papists.4 By 1780 the vicar, Thomas Weekes Dalby, reported that there were five papists in his parish, excepting French and Spanish prisoners on their parole.5 In 1783 he reported that there was one family of Catholics in the parish, relations of Lord Arundell. The family had a private chapel with a resident priest, surnamed Smith.6 The occupant of this house was described by Dalby as ‘Mr Arundell’; he was Thomas Arundell, natural son of Thomas Arundell, second son of the fifth Baron of Wardour, who had inherited the lease of a house at Rowden Hill. The Revd John Smith, a secular Roman Catholic priest, was his chaplain, and also ministered to Catholics in Wootton Bassett.7 Thomas Arundell’s house has been given as Bowden House in one source, but as Bowden Hill is in Lacock parish, this is in error.8 Despite the small numbers of Roman Catholics in North Wiltshire, Chippenham’s burgesses opposed the perceived threat of Catholic emancipation with three petitions in the 1820s.
