Lewis, and from the Calendar of the Patent Rolls, I have been able to establish the separate existence of the hamlet so far back as the fifteenth century; and if no earlier mention Of it is to be discovered in the Patent Rolls and Close Rolls, the presumption must be that Kew formed until then an unidentified part Of West Sheen and the Royal Manor of Richmond. In dealing with its later annals I have endeavoured to keep within the present parochial boundaries, but it has been no easy matter to separate Kew from the rest of the Manor.

It is beautifully illustrated and is a fascinating work for anyone with an interest in the local history of the capital city of England. The following passage is from the introduction: 'THE general history of Kew has been written by Lysons in Part I of his ""Environs of London"" (1792), and by E. W. Brayley in Vol. Ill of his ""History of Surrey"" (1840). From the book of ""Surrey Fines,"" edited by Mr. F. B. Lewis, and from the Calendar of the Patent Rolls, I have been able to establish the separate existence of the hamlet so far back as the fifteenth century; and if no earlier mention of it is to be discovered in the Patent Rolls and Close Rolls, the presumption must be that Kew formed until then an unidentified part of West Sheen and the Royal Manor of Richmond. In dealing with its later annals I have endeavoured to keep within the present parochial boundaries, but it has been no easy matter to separate Kew from the rest of the Manor.'

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The grounds at Chiswick House are amongst the most iconic of all the historic gardens of Europe. In the 1720s they reflected Lord Burlington’s innovative ideas on Palladianism and antique gardens, whilst the area transformed by William Kent to give a rustic appearance in the early 1730s has been recognised as one of, or perhaps the, birthplace of the landscape garden. The grounds were periodically brought to the forefront of taste, reaching another high point as the venue for spectacular garden parties under the 6th Duke of Devonshire. As a garden of many periods it has given rise to passionate national debates since World War II on the principles of restoration, and as a public park it has been an important project assisted by the National Lottery Heritage Fund. Its renewed high state of keeping and its tranquil beauty belies its ‘deep’ history of intellectual debate, social tensions and practical difficulties. The book concentrates on the four main periods when Chiswick gardens were in the national spotlight, two when being in the forefront of taste and two concerning the restorations, the first being in the 1950s when the whole question of garden restoration was entirely new. The second restoration, on and off since 1988 intersects with the development of a philosophical stance and national policy on the restoration of parks and gardens. There is much of interest for art and architectural historians, garden historians, social historians and those local and international visitors who enjoy the finest public park in West London.

This book was released on 1997 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From Elizabeth I's refoundation of the collegiate church to reforms and improvements attempted and achieved in the early years of James I's reign. The completion of Dr Knighton's edition of the first chapter minute book of Westminster Abbey records in detail Elizabeth I's refoundation of the collegiate church, including regulatio for preaching, the school and the library; the chapter's own housing is a continuing issue. Predominantly, however, the acts document the chapter's estate management: lease particulars shed light on the population of early modern Westminster and London. Favours sought by queen and courtiers are recorded, the exercise of the dean and chapter's ecclesiastical patronage is registered. At the end of the period the abbey was home to some of the most eminent churchmen and scholars of the day, Andrewes, Bancroft, Camden and Hakluyt among them. Reforms and improvements attempted and achieved in the early years of James I's reign conclude the volume. Index to both vols.CHARLES KNIGHTON gained his Ph.D. from Magdalene College, Cambridge.
