"There is a temple in ruin stands, Fashion'd by long forgotten hands; Two or three columns, and many a stone, Marble and granite, with grass o'ergrown! Out upon Time! it will leave no more Of the things to come than the things before! Out upon Time! who for ever will leave But enough of the past for the future to grieve O'er that which hath been, and o'er that which must be: What we have seen, our sons shall see; Remnants of things that have passed away, Fragments of stone, reared by creatures of clay!" he visitor to Bury St. Edmund's on alighting from the train, and passing through the large gates to the East of the station (which was opened in 1847), finds himself on the Northgate Road, leading to Fornham. Passing under the railway arch which spans the road, he will see a few yards further on the right-hand side, the ruined gateway of St. Saviour's Hospital. This Hospital was begun by Abbot Sampson about the year 1184, but not finished till the time of King John. It was of such magnitude that, in 1446, a Parliament was assembled there. Here also, Humphrey, the good Duke of Gloucester, was, in 1446, found dead, and supposed to have been murdered. At the Dissolution, this Hospital was granted, 34 Henry viii., to Anthony Stringer and John Williams. The ruins (consisting at the present time chiefly of the remains of the gateway) were a short time ago purchased by the Corporation, in order to prevent such a relic of antiquity being totally destroyed. Retracing his steps, the visitor passes into Northgate Street, and some distance further, sees on the right-hand side the old Grammar School. This School was originally in Eastgate Street, but was removed to Northgate Street in 1665, when "The governors, t

Download or read book A History of Bury St Edmunds written by Frank Meeres and published by Phillimore. This book was released on 2010-10 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bury St. Edmunds has an extraordinary history. The ancient Saxon settlement of Bedricesworth was transformed when the body of Edmund, the martyred King of the East Saxons, was brought to the town in the early 10th century. Around his tomb grew one of the largest abbeys in England, together with a planned new town, the grid pattern of which still survives. In the Middle Ages, Bury had an importance out of all proportion to its size: Parliaments were held here and many Kings of England were visitors.After the abbey was dissolved, Bury remained the heart of West Suffolk and was formally county town between 1888 and 1974. This new book combines archaeological evidence with documentary research to create a vivid picture of the town at every stage in its development and of the lives of its people; how they made their livings, their health, housing, religion, culture and entertainments. Famous townspeople are discussed, but the emphasis is on the ordinary inhabitant. The story is brought right up to the present day, including the effects on Bury of the great conflicts of the 20th century, in the second half of which it enjoyed rapid growth, with new light industry and tourism supplementing the traditional agriculture-based trades.In this, his seventh book on the history of East Anglia, the author, a professional historian and teacher of local history, has provided a much-needed account of Bury's entire past, richly illustrated and very readable, which will appeal to everyone who knows the place ... one of the most beautiful towns in England.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Definitive history of the Abbey of Bury St Edmunds during a crucial period in its history. St Edmund's Abbey was one of the most highly privileged and wealthiest religious houses in medieval England, one closely involved with the central government; its history is an integral part of English history. This book (the first of two volumes) offers a magisterial and comprehensive account of the Abbey during the thirteenth century, based primarily on evidence in the abbey's records [over 40 registers survive]. The careers of the abbots, beginning withthe great Samson, provide the chronological structure; separate chapters study various aspects of their rule, such as their relations with the convent, the abbey's internal and external administration and its relations with itstenants and neighbours, with the king and the central government. Chapters are also devoted to the monks' religious, cultural and intellectual life, to their writings, book collection and archives. Appendices focus on the mid-thirteenth century accounts which give a unique and detailed picture of the organisation and economy of St Edmunds' estates in West Suffolk, and on the abbey's watermills and windmills. Dr ANTONIA GRANSDEN is former Reader atthe University of Nottingham.
