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

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

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

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

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

THK CHANTRY. 17

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

of the jambs; and below each of these, on the south,

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-

in a laced coat, full bottomed wig, and high-heeled
shoes with rosettes ; the woman in a black gown, with
weepers and black hood.

ANTIQUITIES. 25

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.

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.

T. V. Wollaston, Esq., and myself from a dead
fox at Middlemarsh, May 80th, 1878.

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.

The above are the total number of species, as far as
I can make out.

LEPIDOPTERA. 141

The following seven Lepidoi:)terous insects (usually
found on heaths) have heen taken in this parish : —
Satyrus Semele, Saturnia pavonia-minor, Euthemonia
russula, Noctua neglecta, N. porphyrea, Fidonia
atomaria, and Aspilates strigillaria.

Those found on the chalk are twenty in number : —
Arge Galathea, Lycfena Cory don, Lyciena Alsus,
Geometra vernaria, Zerene procellata, Phibalapterex
tersata, Eupithecia isogrammata, Spilodes cinctalis,
Scopula lutealis, Halonota Brunnicherana, Dicro-
rampha simpliciana, D. plumbagana, Catoptria
Hohenwarthiana, C. Scopoliana, Euchromia pur-
purana, E. ericetana, Sericoris conchana, Argyrolepia
cnicana, Antispila Pfeifferella, Pterophorus trigono-
dactylus, and P. baliodactjdus..

The following, which are found in gardens, have
probably been introduced : — Sesia tipuliformis,
Acherontia Atropos, Mamestra brassicse, Cidaria
dotata, and Pionea forficalis. Geometra papilionaria,
which is found on birch, and Trachea piniperda, &c.,
which are attached to fir trees, must also have been
introduced.

The larv£e of the following five moths feed on plants
growing in water : — Hydrocampa stagnalis, H.
nymph^ealis, H. stratiotalis, H. lemnalis, and Acen-
tropus nivosus.

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 : —

LEPIDOPTEEA. 143

Melitffia Artemis, of which the last specimen was
taken by myself at Midcllemarsh, June 3rd, 1875.

list of the butterflies and moths which have been
taken in the surrounding parishes, but not in this
one : —

1815, onWhitedown; and August 17th, 1815,
on Newland Common (which specimen is still
in my collection), was the last day on which my
father took it, although he saw one on Dungeon,
June 22nd, 1816, settled on a thistle. It used
to smell strongly of mint. Drainage, culti-
vation, and the keeping of more cattle, seem to

li

140 HISTORY OF glanvillp: s wootton.

be the chief causes of the disappearance of this

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.

243

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

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-
