 PAROCHIAL HISTORY AND ARCHEOLOGY 
 OF GLANYILLE'S WOOTTON. 
 
 Introduction. 
 WooTTON Glanville — or, as it is generally called, 
 Glanville's Wootton — lies in the beautiful vale, and 
 within the limits of the ancient forest of Blackmore, 
 or the White Hart ; so called for the following 
 reason : — 
 
 King Henry the Third, having disported himself in 
 ihe Forest of Blackmore, spared a certain beautiful 
 and goodly white hart, which afterwards one Sir 
 Thomas de la Lynde, a gentleman of ancient descent 
 and note, with his companions, hunted and killed at 
 King's Stag Bridge, in the parish of Lydlinch. On 
 hearing of it, the king was so enraged that he not 
 only punished them with imprisonment and a fine, 
 but taxed their lands, the owners of which until the 
 last few years paid a yearly sum of money into the 
 Exchequer, called White Hart Silver. The forest for 
 some time lost its ancient name of Blackmore for that 
 of the White Hart. The White Hart silver for this 
 
2 HISTORY OF GLANVILLE's WOOTTON. 
 
 parish was collected by the lord of the hundred of 
 Buckland Newton. 
 
 Glanville's Wootton is bounded on the south by 
 Buckland Newton ; on the west by Middlemarsh, in 
 the parish of Minterne ; on the north-west by Holnest ; 
 on the north by Haydon ; on the east by Holwell ; 
 and on the south-east by Pulham. On the southern 
 boundary of the parish is an old Roman fortification, 
 called Dungeon. The area is above ten acres. On 
 its being cleansed several years ago, by the late Mr. 
 Foy of Castlehill, from the wood with which it was 
 overgrown, human bones, antique pickaxes, sword 
 blades, Roman coins, and other remains were dug up. 
 It is surrounded by a single ditch and rampart, on 
 which are situated several very large and ancient 
 Scotch fir trees, giving it an imposing appearance from 
 a distance. 
 
 Glanville's Wootton contains by estimation about 
 1665 acres of rich land, for the most part in pasture, 
 and divided into several dairy farms. It lies at a 
 distance of twenty miles from Weymouth, twelve from 
 Dorchester, ten from Sturminster Newton, six from 
 Cerne Abbas, and seven from Sherborne. The 
 parish is divided into two tithings, viz., Wootton 
 and Newton Monteacute, alias Newland ; and into 
 three manors, viz., Wootton, Oslehill or Oselhill, and 
 Newland. The inhabitants, which are about 300 in 
 number, are for the most part farmers and labourers, 
 whose houses and cottages are dispersed over the

 whole parish. The soil consists of chalk on White- 
 down, green sand under and around the chalk ; 
 limestone in the Cowleaze and Hartleaze ; and blue 
 clay in the rest of the parish. The hedgerows are in 
 general thickly planted with oak and elm. The oak 
 in particular thrives in Newland, as it does in most 
 of the deep clay lands which lie at the foot of the hills 
 forming the southern boundary of the vale. The 
 most important of the woods, copses, &c., are as 
 follows : — Broad Alders, Wootton Wood, Sandhills 
 Copse, Haywood, and Whitedown Copse in Wootton ; 
 Fernyknap, Mulletts Copse, Mead Copse, Birch Copse, 
 Pelles, Cockroad, Waterly Lane Withybed, Babbitts, 
 Buttons, and the Common Plantation in Newland 
 The arable lands are mostly on Whitedown and New- 
 land Common, which latter place, until a few years 
 ago, was covered with furze and heath. A little furze 
 still crops up, but the heath has entirely disappeared. 
 The places on the Common where charcoal used to be 
 burnt can still be discerned. On each side of the 
 road leading to Holwell are a couple of very ancient 
 oaks, called Gog and Magog, formerly denizens of the 
 forest ; and also several birches, Wyche elms, and 
 Turkey oaks, planted by my father. Opposite the 
 manor-house at Wootton is a fine grove of tall elms 
 (in which the rooks delight to build their nests), 
 planted by Mr. Henley about 150 years ago. Another 
 very ancient oak stands in the middle of Dursels

 branches of the Lidden (a tributary of the Stour 
 which flows into the sea at Christchurch, the ancient 
 dwelling-place of the Dale familj^, runs through the 
 parish ; and receives a large influx of water from 
 several springs which rise round Dungeon. There is 
 a very fine pond opposite Roundchimneys (of about an 
 acre in extent, stocked with several kinds of fish, and 
 on which is a boat-house), and several much smaller 
 ones in the parish. A few years ago a beech tree was 
 cut down on Whitedown, and several old-English 
 letters were found in the heart, similar to those found 
 in Sherwood Forest. In the ' Gardener's Chronicle ' 
 of September 5th, 1845, is an account of an oak 
 tree which had its entire bark stripped off by light- 
 ning, but nevertheless came out in leaf the following 
 spring. 
 
 The Manor of Wootton Glanville. 
 
 The most ancient lords of this manor were the 
 family of Manger mentioned in the Inquisition 5 
 of Edward II., when the Abbot of Milton Abbas 
 held in Wolverne Wootton, in pure alms, 17 solitatse, 
 yearly rent issuing out of that manor ; the gift of 
 Godfied of the family of Manger, formerly of that 
 manor, who had enjoyed it beyond the memory of 
 man. Before the time of Henry III., Henr}^ de 
 Glanville held one knight's fee of the honour of 
 Dramele de Conquestu Anglite. The following is the 
 survey in Doomesday Book: — William de Brasiose 
 
MANOR OF WOOTTON (iLANVlLLK. 5 
 
 held Widetown of the king, and Eadulf of him. In 
 the reign of Edward III. it was found not to the 
 king's detriment to grant license to Sibylla de Glan- 
 ville, to give the manor of Foffardeston, alias 
 Forstou, and one messuage and lands in Wootton 
 Glanville, to a chaplain to celebrate divine service for 
 ever at the altar of the Blessed Virgin Mary in her 
 chantry at the parish church. She held in Wolverne 
 Wootton one -fourth part of a knight's fee, formerly 
 held by Henry de Glanville. John de Glanville, the 
 last of this family, left two daughters, one of whom 
 married Eobert More of Marnhull, whose only daughter 
 married John Newburgh, of East Lulworth, about the 
 time of Henry IV. It continued in the Newburgh 
 family till the time of Richard III ; after which, it 
 appears no more in their inquisitions, and was per- 
 haps alienated to the Leighs. A subsidy roll in the 
 time of Henry VIII. gives this account of the parish : 
 Dr. Lacton, Archdeacon of Dorset, in lands, 40s. ; 
 Sir Thomas Trenchard, knight, steward ; Sir Richard 
 Monkton, parson, value ^13 ; Sir Thomas Broke, 
 chantry priest, in lands ^6. This manor subsequently 
 passed through the hands of the De la Lyndes, 
 Stephensons, and Collins, to George, fourth son of 
 Sir John Williams, of Herringstone, about 1600, whose 
 daughter and heiress brought it to the Everys. John 
 Every, Esq., having died without issue, left this part 
 of his estate to his sister Barbara, wife of Sir Robert 
 Henley, knight, of the Grange, Hampshire. Robert, 
 
tl HISTORY OF GLANVILLE S WOOTTON. 
 
 3'oimgest son of Barbara (Lad}'- Henley), died in the 
 year 1758 unmarried; but before his death he sold 
 his estate to Edward Walter, Esq., of Stalbridge, on 
 October 10th, 1754, who again sold it on October 
 16th, 1767, to Captain James Dale, of Blandford. 
 His log-books, which are still in the possession of the 
 family, are very interesting ; and contain an account 
 of his battle with the East Indian pirate, TuUagree 
 Augria. The aforesaid Robert Henley, Esq., a gentle- 
 man of great virtue and learning, was formerly Fellow 
 of New College, Oxford, and member of parliament 
 for Lyme Regis. The manor-house, late Henley's, 
 stood at a little distance to the north of the church, 
 and was an ancient building, probably erected by the 
 Williams whose arms were in the front of the house. 
 In 1804 it was rebuilt, for his own residence, by the 
 son of Captain Dale — James Dale, Esq., of Bland- 
 ford, father of James Charles Dale, Esq., M.A.,F.L.S. 
 In pulling down the old house a coin of Henry VIII. 
 was found, which was again put into the foundations 
 with one of George III. The house is pleasantly 
 situated, surrounded with lofty oaks and elms planted 
 by Mr. Henley, and is close to a beautiful and spark- 
 ling spring of water, which never fails and always 
 keeps to the same degree of temperature. Upon the 
 lawn used to stand a very large and handsome ever- 
 green oak. 
 
 Part of the estate which was allotted to the CoUins's 
 seems to have been alienated to the Napiers of More

 Cricliel, from whom it passed to Humphrey Sturt, 
 Esq., and afterwards to Charles Stiirt, Esq., who sold 
 it to Mr. John Yomig, of Glanville's Wootton. This 
 estate was pm-chased of his executors in 1861, by 
 James Charles Dale, Esq. The house belonging to it, 
 called the Church Farm-house, has been considerably 
 altered and spoiled ; but on pulling off the roughcast, 
 an old carved doorway and windows were found, 
 which prove it to be of considerable antiquity. 
 
 That part of the manor which was allotted to 
 Henry Stephenson came afterwards to Robert White, 
 Esq., of Dorchester, whose son (the Rev. George 
 White, rector of Huntshill) sold it in 1807 to 
 Mr. George Young, the grandfather of the present 
 owner. 
 
 Another estate in the manor, which belonged to the 
 Foys of Castlehill, was sold in 1875 by the executors 
 of the late C. W. Minet, Esq., in two halves : one 
 half being purchased by my brother, E. R. Dale, Esq., 
 and the other by Sir William Clay, the brother of Sir 
 George Clay, the present owner. 
 
 The rectory which stands in this manor was erected 
 by Mr. Fox in a field next to the church, and enlarged 
 and fitted up commodiously by Mr. Evans. Mr. 
 Evans also drained the whole field, and converted 
 part of it into an excellent garden, well stocked with 
 fruit trees, and surrounded by an extensive brick wall. 
 The rector is entitled to tithe of every kind, and has 
 between forty and fifty acres of excellent glebe land. 
 
H HISTORY OF GLANVILLE S VVOOTTON. 
 
 Osehill, 
 
 alias Odershill, alias Oakhill, is a little manor situ- 
 ated in the north-west corner of the parish, of which 
 there is no ancient account. It belonged to the 
 Harbins, of Dorchester, who conveyed it to theLoders. 
 One of them, Andrew Loders, Esq., sold it about 
 1729 to Mr. Henley, who sold it again in 1754 to 
 Mr. Walter ; of whom it was purchased (1767) by 
 Captain James^Dale, the grandfather of James Charles 
 Dale, Esq., the owner in 1870. 
 
 A farm in Osehill, of about sixty-two acres, be- 
 longed in 1806 to Mr. George Young, who left it by 
 will to his second son, Mr. John Young, on whose 
 death it came to his daughter-in-law, Mrs. Pauley of 
 Minterne. The poor allotments, and the Yetminster 
 Charity Lands, are in this manor, also a few acres 
 belonging to the church of Sarum. 
 
 The Manor of Newland, 
 alias Newton Monteacute, alias Blackmore Manor, 
 was granted by King Edward I., with the woods of 
 Blackmore, to Simon de Monteacute at a rent of ten 
 shillings per annum. In the reign of Henry VI. 
 Thomas, Earl of Sarum, held this manor of Newton 
 Monteacute of the king. Margaret, Countess of 
 Sarum (wife of Sir Richard Pole), beheaded May 27th, 
 1541, held this manor, valued at ^613 10s. Id. 
 In the reign of Mary this manor of Newton

 Monteacute, part of the possessions of the Countess 
 of Sarum,was granted to Francis, Earl of Huntingdon. 
 In the reign of Elizabeth it was held by Gamage : 
 hence it came to the Churchills. John Churchill, 
 gent., compounded for assisting the king's forces at 
 ,£440. His son Winston, born in London 1620, and 
 admitted at St. James's College, Oxford, in 1036, 
 adhered to the royal cause, for which he suffered 
 severely, being forced to take refuge with his wife 
 Elizabeth at the house of her father. Sir J. Drake, at 
 Ash, Devonshire, and to compound for £446 18s. 
 In 1661 he was chosen member for Weymouth, and 
 soon after fellow of the Royal Society. He was author 
 of ' Divi Britannica ; or, Remarks on the Lives of all 
 the Kings of this Isle' : (London, 1675). In 1663 he 
 was knighted, and died 1688, leaving his property to 
 his surviving son, John, born at Ashe 1650, who was 
 afterwards created Duke of Marlborough. The Duke 
 of Marlborough sold this manor and estate to Dr. 
 Wellman, of Poundisford, Somerset ; of whose de- 
 scendants it was purchased, in 1839, by James Charles 
 Dale, Esq., the father of myself the present owner. 
 It contains a little more than 800 acres. 
 
 What remains now of the ancient manor-house 
 (called, from the shape of its chimneys, Round- 
 chimneys) is a farm-house inhabited by Mr. Hawkins. 
 From a date on one of the chimneys it appears to 
 have been built between 1590 and 1600. Upon 
 another chimney is a device, perhaps a mason's

 mark, + Neither painted glass nor arms remain 
 in the windows or upon the walls. The situation is 
 pleasant, and the surrounding grounds appear to have 
 been laid out into gardens, fish-ponds, and every 
 convenience for a man of fortune. The annexed 
 considerable and very much improved estate consists 
 chiefly of rich pasture lands, and abounds with oak 
 and other timber. At a little distance from the house 
 is the old wooden pound. There is also another very 
 old farm-house in the manor, called Hamper's Farm. 
 It is built of mud and stone, and covered with thatch. 
 The inhabitants are a family of the name of Dunning, 
 who have resided in the parish for generations, and 
 are connexions of the Ashburton family. 
 
 The Church, 
 which is dedicated to God in honour of the Blessed 
 Virgin Mary is a small structure, built entirely in the 
 Perpendicular style, with the exception of an ancient 
 chantry chapel on the south side, called the Glanville 
 Chapel. At the west end stands the tower, which is 
 low and has two stages onl}', moulded battlements, 
 angle pinnacles and gurgoyles, a western door with a 
 window above it, and four windows with stone louvre 
 to the belfry. The bells it contains are four in 
 number, with the following inscriptions: — 
 
 3. In memoriam patris. E. R. Dale, 1876. 
 
 4. Thomas Knight, John Drake, Anno Dom. 1700. 
 
THE CHURCH. 11 
 
 The chancel, according to Hutchins, is chiefly a 
 modern building, with no pretensions to architectural 
 propriety. On the south side is a small doorway under 
 an ogee arch, a perpendicular piscina with an arch of 
 a similar character ; and a very fine arch, which forms 
 part of the hagioscope leading into the Glanville Chapel. 
 In the north wall was a semicircular arch, which might 
 perhaps have enclosed an ancient monument. The 
 chancel was entirely rebuilt in 1876 by the rector and 
 patron, the Rev. J. S. Woodman, with the help of his 
 friends, and Queen Anne's Bounty. 
 
 The nave of the church, which had become very 
 dilapidated, was restored in 1876 by E. R. Dale, Esq., 
 and the parishioners, with the help of a few friends ; 
 under the able supervision of G. R. Crickmay, Esq., 
 of Weymouth, who was the architect for the entire 
 restoration of the church. The principal entrance is 
 from a neat tiled porch, which abuts against the 
 west end of the Glanville Chapel. Close to the 
 door on the north side, which is disused, is a 
 curious niche ; but for what purpose intended is 
 not known. In the window on the north side were 
 the arms of Newburgh : bendy of seven or and azure, 
 in a border engrailed gules. On the opposite side, 
 between the porch and the doorway of the chantr}^ is 
 a place in the wall for a stoup. The font, which has 
 been removed from tlie chantry to the south side of 
 the nave, has an octagonal bowl of rough Purbeck 
 marble, with two shallow-pointed arches on each face; 
 
l!^ HISTORY OF GLANVILLE's WOOTTON. 
 
 and is very massive, standing upon one large and 
 eight small pillars of Purbeck marlile. The fol- 
 lowing account is taken from the ' Dorset County 
 Chronicle and Somersetshire Gazette ' of April 27th, 
 1876, which gives the history of the re-opening of the 
 church by the Bishop of Salisbury, on the 22nd of 
 April, 1876 : — " All the stonework of the interior has 
 been divested of whitewash, the rough rubble being 
 left unplastered, and the pointing being properly 
 managed, a good effect of light and shade has been 
 produced. The singing gallery, also, has been re- 
 moved, and the tower-arch (which is rather a rude 
 piece of work) exposed. New pitch pine open benches, 
 varnished, have taken the place of the former pews ; 
 and the waggon-headed roof has been replaced with 
 one of a similar pattern made of pitch pine, with 
 oaken bosses or pattern after the old style at the 
 intersections of the ribs. The old stone tiles have 
 again been put on. The northern wall has been taken 
 down and re-erected, but the same stones having been 
 used, the venerable aspect has been unchanged. The 
 lower window has been repaired, but much of the 
 original tracery has been preserved ; and a new window 
 of a similar pattern (rather early Perpendicular) has 
 taken the place of one of a nondescript character. 
 At the intersection of the nave and chancel a chimney 
 has been added, but the ' native ugliness' that usually 
 clings to these structures has been avoided, and it has 
 been made to assume the appearance of a rather 
 
THE CHANTRY. 13 
 
 handsome turret. The lectern is the work of E. R. 
 Dale, Esq., who hss shown himself to be an accom- 
 plished turner. It is composed of oak (from the old 
 roof of the chantry), walnut, ebon}^ and holly; and 
 the design is very beautiful. The carving in the 
 pannels of the pulpit is by Mr. Grassby, of Dorchester, 
 who also executed the greater part of the stone carving. 
 It stands on a base of Ham Hill stone, and is a re- 
 maikable improvement upon the old one." 
 
 The Chantry, 
 
 or Glanville Chapel, which extends only from the 
 chancel to the porch, is built of flints intermixed with 
 Hani Hill stone and Purbeck marble. It was founded, 
 or rather refounded, by Sybilla de Glanville, in the 
 reign of Edward III. ; and was valued in the reign of 
 Edward VI. at £% 18s. There was one silver chalice 
 of nine ounces, and John Mylle was incumbent. The 
 patronage of it was always in the lords of the manor. 
 The following account is taken from the ' Dorset 
 County Chronicle ' : — " We come now to the Chantry, 
 which is truly an ecclesiastical gem, and a capital 
 example of the Decorated period — probably in its 
 most palmy time, if we may judge by the exquisite 
 tracery and the flowing grace with which the windows 
 have been executed. The character of the windows 
 seems — notably in one instance — to indicate the work 
 of a French artist ; at least, there is something of the 
 Flamboyant style about it which betrays the foreign 
 
14 HISTORY OF GLANVILLe's WOOTTON. 
 
 taste. One of these windows is also quite unique, as 
 we cannot find an example of the kind in any archi- 
 tectural work ; and it has the peculiarity of the middle 
 light being circular-headed, while the other two are 
 square ; the design of the tracery is very originnl and 
 quite different from the ordinary types of this period. 
 The upper window in the south side, although elegant, 
 has little to distinguish it from the ordinary Decorated 
 tracery ; but its neighbour has some of the features of 
 the Flamboyant style, not usually seen in country 
 churches. The removal of the plaster from the walls 
 has revealed that it is built of knapped flint, and it is 
 one of the finest pieces of this class of masonry we 
 have witnessed, being quite equal to that of the Abbey 
 barn at Cerne. But all who are interested in church 
 architecture owe a debt of gratitude to Mr. C. W. Dale 
 for coming to the rescue of this beautiful building, 
 and saving it from falling a victim to the ravages of 
 time ; and, apparently, his munificent hand did not 
 intervene too soon, for there were serious appre- 
 hensions that the place would tumble on the heads of 
 the worshippers, as the walls were cracked, and 
 there were alarming signs of a general settling down, 
 owing to the foundations being sapped with damj). 
 The roof also was reduced to touchwood, and it was 
 marvellous how it remained so long in its place. 
 However, Mr. Crickmay was called in, and he has 
 effected so complete a transformation as to restore the 
 building to a condition that would certainl}' rejoice 
 
THE CHANTRY. 16 
 
 the heart of its foundress, Sybilla de Glanville. Very 
 beautifully it has been restored, both architect and 
 mason having dealt reverently with the ancient walls. 
 The plaster coating has been removed, and reveals the 
 flint work both on the exterior and the interior, and 
 the effect is admirable. The stonework of the windows 
 has beer removed where defective, but this, happily, 
 has not been found necessary to any great extent. 
 The roof has been replaced exactly on the old pattern, 
 with large moulded beams of oak grown in the neigh- 
 bourhood, four of which extend right across the build- 
 ing, and had to be hollowed out in the centre ; and 
 the panels having been boarded with cedar, the appear- 
 ance is both novel and pleasing. The ancient altar 
 slab of rough Purbeck marble having been found 
 in the floor, was restored to its place of honour 
 under the east window, and set upon two pillars of 
 Ham Hill stone. The beautiful Decorated piscina, 
 with its shelf under an ogee canopy, has been cleaned, 
 and forms one of the prettiest features in the building. 
 Underneath it is a curious corbel head. The hagio- 
 scope, which gave a view of the high altar from this 
 building, is exceedingly curious, and we are told has 
 no parallel in any other church. Into it leads a 
 smaller hagioscope, from under the chantry arch. 
 This also has received the renovation necessary to its 
 condition. The east window has been filled with 
 stained glass, by Messrs. Lavers, Burraud, and West- 
 lake ; and the colours are exceedingly good. The 
 
16 HISTORY OF GLANVILLE's WOOTTON. 
 
 central light contains the Good Shepherd, and to the 
 left is Elijah fed by ravens; on the right being St. 
 Paul bitten by the viper at Melita. At the lower 
 part of the window is the inscription — ' In memo- 
 riam Jacobi Caroli Dale, Qui natus est Dec. 13th, 
 MDCCXCI, et Obiit Feb. 6th, MDCCCLXXII.' 
 This is a memorial window to the father of the present 
 lord of the manor. In the tracery is the Lord of 
 Hosts ; with a figure of St. John and his eagle on the 
 right, stated by Hutchins to be the Virgin. This was 
 a portion of the original glass. On the other side is 
 a figure of St. Matthew, the head of which has been 
 restored. Two new figures of St. Mark with the bull, 
 and St. Luke with the lion, have also been inserted in 
 the tracery. Several old fragments of glass with oak 
 leaves, various devices, &c., have been put into the 
 upper parts of the south windows. The foundation of 
 the south wall was found so undermined by damp 
 that it was found necessary to underpin it and the 
 buttresses ; and it has been strengthened and made 
 thoroughly secure. Five stalls have been placed in 
 the chantry, the ends of the centre one being made 
 from a walnut tree grown in Mr. Dale's garden, and 
 is carved with a figure of the dove and olive branch. 
 The others are of oak, and the ends are carved to 
 represent the baptism of Christ, the flight into Egypt, 
 St. Peter's denial, pelican and young, &c. We should 
 add that the recumbent figure has been removed from 
 under the wide four- centred arch opening into the

 church, and placed in one of the niches under the 
 south windows, appai'ently its original position, as it 
 fitted exactly; and a not improbable theory is broached, 
 that the effigy is the figure of Henry de Glanville, 
 Sybilla's husband, and that she intended the other 
 recess for her own statue, but was prevented from 
 carrying out her intention — perhaps by dying in a dis- 
 tant part. So interesting a building as this chantry 
 could hardly fail to give rise to an archaeological con- 
 troversy, and accordingly it has been advanced that 
 it was originally an independent building, and the 
 cliurch was afterwards built adjacent to it. The 
 proofs of this can hardly be contradicted. A buttress 
 built into the wall of the porch, and visible inside the 
 church, with the same occurring in the chancel, are 
 pretty sure signs the church was added to the chantry, 
 and not the chantry to the church. Moreover, the 
 llintwork ceases suddenly at the commencement of 
 the porch and at the chancel, in both instances being 
 continued by later stonemasonry. But further proof 
 is given by the doorway leading fi-om the nave into 
 the chantry being clearly an outside entry ; and the 
 holy water stoup close at hand still further strengthens 
 the belief, which gains additional force by the circum- 
 stance that the foundation of the former northern 
 wall was found existing under the arch before men- 
 tioned. No trace of a former church having been 
 found is another argument in favour of the statement, 
 although, on the other hand, we are told there is no 
 
 c

 instance of a chantry being built separate from a 
 church ; but there never was a rule without an excep- 
 tion, and we shall leave the question to the learned in 
 archgeology. 
 
 The passage in the chantry is paved with encaustic 
 tiles, made by Messrs. Minton & Co., after the pattern 
 of some old tiles found in removing the floor, viz. : — 
 Fleur-de-lis, Deo gracias, Pomegranates, Arms of 
 Bishoprick of Exeter, Arms of Edward the Confessor, 
 Arms of Edward I. ; Paternal arms of Eleanor of 
 Castile, consort of Edward I. ; Horseman ; Archer ; 
 the White Hart, which latter symbolise the local 
 legend of the King's Stag or the White Hart, and are 
 exceedingly curious. 
 
 On referring to the chantry, in his ' History of 
 Dorset,' Hutchins says it is the most interesting part 
 of the church, the architecture being of the Decorated 
 period ; and it has two windows, with three lights 
 apiece, on the south side ; whilst another, of a similar 
 character, fills the east gable. A pair of massive 
 flj'ing buttresses of three stages support each angle ; 
 and there is another between the side windows, 
 all which have hoed mouldings externally. Upon the 
 buttress nearest to the porch is a place where a sun-dial 
 formerly was. Internally the windows have a circular 
 column with moulded capitals and bases at the angles 
 of the jambs; and below each of these, on the south, 
 is a low segmental arch, now roughly built up, but 
 which probably contained altar tombs, and perhaps

 effigies. There is a large ogee -headed piscina across 
 the south-eastern corner of the chantr}^ and also a 
 bracket on each side of the east window ; that on the 
 north being of a circular shape, and ornamented with 
 a goodly suite of mouldings. Here, no doubt, was 
 the chantry altar. This chapel is connected with the 
 nave by a large arch of two orders. The inner or 
 western order rests on a slender engaged pillar, and 
 the other on a corbel-head of two characters. There 
 is a large hagioscope built diagonally towards the 
 high altar, and another through the western jamb of 
 the arch last mentioned. Under this arch, also, on a 
 plain altar-tomb, lies the effigy of Sybilla de Glan- 
 ville (?), foundress of the charity. It is sculptured in 
 Ham Hill stone. The head, which rests on a pillow, 
 has the hair long, parted in the middle of the fore- 
 head, and falling in massive clusters on the shoulders, 
 which are covered with a hood or mantle thrown 
 back, beneath which the body is clad in a loose frock 
 reaching to the knees, but tucked up at the waist. 
 A broad strap passes across the hips, which sustains 
 a sword on the left side. The feet rest against a dog, 
 and the straps of the spurs may still be made out on 
 each heel. The hands rest on the breast, the palms 
 placed together in an attitude of supplication. 
 
 A low stone sedillia goes round inside of the eastern 
 and southern walls of the chantry. There are a few 
 old monuments of the Williams and Everys, who 
 were successively lords of the manor of Wootton

 between 1600 and 1700. The most curious is the one 
 to John Every, Esq., on the top of which is a pedi- 
 ment supported by two pillars ; over it are the effigies 
 of a man and woman, kneeling and painted — the man 
 in a laced coat, full bottomed wig, and high-heeled 
 shoes with rosettes ; the woman in a black gown, with 
 weepers and black hood.

 The -Rev. John Wickens, of whose executors it was 
 purchased by the Eev. G. R. Laiigdon, of St. Paul's 
 Cray, Kent, who sold it in 1857 to Mrs. Charleton. 
 Since the death of his aunt (Mrs. Charleton), Mr. 
 Woodman has been his own patron ; which shows 
 that an alteration in the law of patronage is much 
 needed. 
 
 Antiquities. 
 
 A bronze celt for cutting down trees was dug up on 
 Newland Common, two or three years ago, by Henry 
 Warr. An old rusty iron spur (very long) was found 
 by William Durrant on Whitedown, just outside of 
 Dungecm, some years ago ; and which the Rev. W. 
 Barnes, Rector of Came — the Dorset poet — thought 
 was very ancient. It has unfortunately been lost. 
 
 A few old coins have been found, from time to 
 time — such as monk's base money, old Spanish 
 moid as, &c. 
 
 In the Manor House are some very fine pieces of 
 old Chelsea china ; Japanese and Chinese, with the 
 three, four, and five-claw dragons upon them — which 
 belonged to Captain Dale. The freedoms of Glasgow, 
 Renfrew and Stirling (which were presented to him), 
 are exceedingly curious. There is, also, the old gold 
 watch given him by Governor Lally, who came over to 
 England in Captain Dale's ship, when Pondicherry was 
 taken from the French. 
 
26 HISTORY OF GLANVILLe's VVOOTTON. 
 
 A few fossil shells and ammonites have been 
 found in the Green Wall sand-pit, and also in the 
 lime-stone quarry of Hartleage; but none of any 
 quality.

40 HISTORY OF OLANVILLE's WOOTTON. 
 
 Class V.— INSECTA. 
 
 Of the 13,280 insects which (as far as I know) have 
 been taken in the British Isles, 4118 belong to 
 the order Hymenoptera, 3374 to Coleoptera, 49 to 
 Orthoptera, 331 to Neuroptera, 2062 to Lepidoptera, 
 2235 to Diptera, 55 to Aphaniptera, 441 to Hemiptera, 
 and 622 to Homoptera. 
 
 3890 have been taken in the parish of Glanville's 
 Wootton, of the following orders : — Hymenoptera, 
 631; Coleoptera, 911; Orthoptera, 23; Neuroptera, 
 149; Lepidoptera, 910; Diptera, 800; Aphaniptera, 
 33; Hemiptera, 178; and Homoptera, 194. 
 
 Owing to its having been my father's favourite 
 branch of Natural History, and to the multitude of 
 species, I have thought it best to divide the class 
 Insecta into orders and tribes, or families. 
 
 Several of the insects found in this parish are figured 
 and described in Curtis's ' British Entomology.' 
 
 Order I. — Hymenoptera. 
 
 Amongst the rarer species of Hymenoptera found in 
 this parish, I think the following are most deserving 
 of notice : — Pompilus variegatus ; Crabro signatus ; 
 Cephus phthiscus ; Lydamarginata; Lyda arbustorum ; 
 Hylotoma segmentaria ; Myrmosa melanocephala ; 
 Evagethes bicolor ; Spilomena Troglodytes ; Alyson 
 
HYMENOPTERA.

 Ceraphron Halidayi ; Stieblocera fulviceps ; Janus 
 femoratus ; Cephus troglodytes ; Allantus punctum ; 
 Lophyrus rufus ; Hylotoma cyaneocrocea ; Hylotoma

 On looking over the summary, it may be observed 
 that Glanville's Wootton is very deficient in the 
 
42 HISTORY OF GLANVILLE's WOOTTON. 
 
 Ichneumonidse and Chalcididae. The reason of this 
 is, that I possess numerous species of these families 
 without names.

 The following beetles have been taken in the sur- 
 rounding parislies, although they have never been 
 seen in Glanville's Wootton. Owing to Cosraore 
 Quag having been drained by Lord Allington, about 
 ten years ago, several rnrities have been destroyed.

 As Coleoptera was my father's least favourite order 
 of insects, it cannot be surprising that ninety species 
 have been added to the list by T. Vernon Wollaston, 
 Esq., and myself, notably in the tribes Necrophaga 
 and Brachelytra. In the genus Cassida we possess 
 nine of the twelve British species.

 Two great features in the Lepidoptera of Glanville's 
 Wootton are — the abundance of the genus Depressaria, 
 and the paucity of the genus Gelechia. 
 
143 HISTORY OF GLANVILLE's WOOTTON. 
 
 The number of moths which have been beaten from 
 thatch during the month of November are so nume- 
 rous as to be worthy of special notice ; they are as 
 follows : — Xylina semibrunnea and petrificata ; Simae- 
 this pariana ; Eudorea angustea ; Cerostoma variella ; 
 Theristis caudella ; Depressaria pallorella, atomella, 
 propinquella, subpropinquella, rhodochrella, purpurea, 
 Alstraemeriana, capreolella, conterminella, ocellana, 
 arenella, Yeatiana, granulosella, applana, chserophyl- 
 ella, ciliella, Weirella, albipunctella, ultimella, Doug- 
 lasella, badiella, nervosa, pastinacella, and heracliana; 
 Psoricoptera gibbosella ; Gelechia Lj^ellella ; Laverna 
 decorella and epilobiella ; Acrolepia pygmseana 
 Chauliodus chserophyllellus ; Gracillaria semifasciella 
 and syringella ; Zelleria insignipennella ; Gracillaria 
 sulphurella ; Pterophorus pterodactylus ; and Alucita 
 polydactyla;— three-and-forty in all. On the other 
 hand, moths at ivy bloom are few and common. 
 
 The following species seem to be attached to 
 orchards : — Ypsipetes psitticata and miata ; Cero- 
 stoma asperella and horridella ; Exapate gelatella ; 
 Carpocapsa pomonana ; (Ecophora unitella ; Ornix 
 guttea; Gracillaria sulphurella; Lithocolletis pomi- 
 foliella ; Argyresthia curvella and Andereggiella. 
 
 The remainder of the Lepidoptera have been 
 obtained in the woods and fields. The following 
 have occurred more plentifully in the neighbouring 
 parishes : —

 one : —

 to smell strongly of mint. Drainage, culti- 
 vation, and the keeping of more cattle, seem to 
 
 li

 Glanville's Wootton is particularly rich in the 
 genera Oxycera (ten out of the eleven British species), 
 Platypeza (seven of the twelve British species), 
 and Tephritis (twenty- eight of the forty-two British 
 species). 
 
 Among the rarest flies found in this parish may be 
 mentioned : — Tephritis Goedii, Platypeza modesta, 
 rufa, and picta ; Callomyia elegans and amcena ; 
 Sybistroma discipes ; Ardoptera oblongoguttata ; 
 Oxycera longicornis, pygmsea, and analis ; Xylota 
 abiens ; Selachrops flavocincta ; Diastata nebulosa ; 
 Coretha pallida ; and Anopheles pygmseus. 
 
DIPTKUA.

 As it will be seen, I have commenced with the 
 Ps3'^chodidtB, because they bear the strongest resem- 
 blance to the Lepidoptera ; and concluded with the 
 (Estridae and Hippoboscidae, as the former have no 
 proboscis, and the latter have been made into a 
 separate order, or suborder. 
 
 Some of the larvae of the Tipulidae are Fungi-feeders, 
 as are also those of the MycetophilidEe, Phoridae, 
 Platypezidae, Drosophilidae, and Helomyzidae. The 
 larvpe of the Cecidom3'id8e and the Trypetidse are 
 gall-makers. 
 
 The parasitic larvae are of two kinds, viz., external 
 and internal. Among the former are those of the 
 Bombylidse, Syrphidse, and Conopidse ; among the 
 latter are those of the Tachinidae, which breed inside 
 the pupae of other insects, and of the (Estridae, which 
 attack animals. 
 
 The Empinae prey on other insects in the perfect 
 state. The Hippoboscidae feed on the substance at 
 the roots of the hair and feathers of animals and birds. 
 The flies which suck the blood of man and animals 
 belong to the genera— Culex, Ceratopogon, Chrysops, 
 Tabanus, Haematopota, and Stomoxys. 
 
 Some of the species of the genus Chironomus are 
 only to be obtained in the winter, as are all of the 
 genus Trichocera, which may be seen, even when the 
 snow is on the ground, dancing up and down in the 
 sunshine. Several of the order may be obtained all 
 the year round. Some species of the genera —

 Eristalis, Anthomyia, and Musca hibernate in old 
 thatch and rubbish, in considerable numbers.

 Order VII. — Aphaniptera. 
 
 Of this neglected order, or suh-order, of Diptera, 
 only fourteen species have hitherto been described as 
 British ; but on looking over the foUewing pages it 
 will be seen that thirty- eight have been taken in this 
 parish. I have added short descriptions of those not 
 previously described, but refrain from doing more, as 
 it would take up too much room to give long ones ; 
 and besides I hope to write a monograph of them 
 another day. Owing to the diversity of shape I think 
 one or two additional genera might be formed.

 Dryobius roboris, Linn. Taken by my father off 
 holly at Holnest, July, 1842. 
 
 ^;>^Q^efore proceeding further I wish to call attention to 
 a very curious black parasite, about the size of a 
 mustard-seed, adhering to the side of various species 
 of the Homoptera, where the eljj-tra joins the thorax. 
 Through the microscope it looks like a little black 
 bag. I think it must belong to the Acari. Not 
 having seen any account of it, I propose to call it 
 Homopterophagus Dorsettensis.

 HISTORY OF GLANVILLE S WOOTTON. 
 
 Class VII.— AEACHNIDA. 
 
 Order I.— Araneldea. 
 
 For the names of the hundred and five spiders I 
 have taken in Glanville's Wootton, this year, I am 
 indebted to the kindness of the Rev. O. P. Cambridge 
 (the best authority on the subject), who has taken by 
 far the greater number of the four hundred and sixt}^ 
 British spiders in Dorsetshire. The rarest species I 
 have taken in this parish are : — Clubiona corticalis, 
 Chiracanthium erraticum, Agroeca brunnea, Dictyna 
 arundinacea, Episinus truncatus, Steatoda quadri- 
 punctata, Linyphia frenata, Ero thoracica, Zilla atrica, 
 Epeira Wastrugii, Xysticus trux, and Philodromus

 Class VIII.— MYEIOPODA. 
 
 As far as I am aware of the only British authors 
 who have written on this class are Dr. Leach, in his 
 ' Zoological Miscellany,' and the eleventh volume of 
 the Linnean Transactions ; and Mr. Newport, in the 
 nineteenth volume of the last-mentioned work. In 
 Glanville's Wootton I have found ten of the twelve 
 British species of the order Chilopoda; and nine of 
 the fourteen British species of the order Chilognatha. 
 
 In the next class, Crustacea, this parish is of course 
 very deficient, as out and out the greatest number of 
 species are marine. 
 
 Cliilopoda. 
 
 1. Pauropus Huxleyi, Lubb. Of occasional occurrence 
 amongst dead leaves in the autumn. 
 
 1. Lithobius variegatus, Leach. Large-headed Centi-

APPENDIX. 
 
 Perhaps the following summary may be interesting. 
 I may as well observe that by far the greater number 
 of species belonging to the classes — Pisces, Crustacea, 
 Mollusca, Echinodermata, Cselenterata — are marine, 
 as are also most of the Algffi.
