The Wilfred Blunt Archive. Important archive of
papers, 1869-1922, relating to the poet, adventurer, associate of the
pre-Raphaelites and founder of modern anti- colonialism, Sir Wilfred Blunt,
of Worth, Sussex, as well as his wife Lady Anne, the granddaughter of Byron,
and their world famous Arabian horse racing stud at Crabbet Park (near to
modern day Gatwick Airport), including a copy of Blunt's original marriage
settlement, mentioning Byron's daughter, Augusta Ada, various copies of
Blunt's will and codicils to it, most signed by Blunt, legal papers relating
to the Crabbet Park Arabian Stud, a copy of Lady Anne's will, an indenture
involving the Rev. Augustus Byron, papers relating to the High Court lawsuit
Blunt took out against his daughter, Lady Wentworth, sundry legal papers,
letters etc. A fascinating archive which will doubtless shed new light on one
of the most colourful characters in late Victorian England, as well as
providing new information on the immediate descendents of Lord Byron. Blunt,
(1840-1922) famed for his Victorian love sonnets, was also a leading diplomat
of his day, a seasoned traveller and adventurer, particularly in Egypt and
Arabia, revered by his fellow poets, such as W B Yeats, and also a close
associate of the pre-Raphaelite Brotherhood - so close in fact that he had a
torrid love affair with one of their most famous models, Jane Burden. He
married Byron's granddaughter in 1870, and together they developed one of the
most famous Arabian Racehorse studs of all time - the Crabbet Park Stud.
Indeed the name 'Crabbet' is today a byword for quality Arabian bloodstock.
Sadly his daughter did not take any interest in the stud and it was quickly
disbanded on his death. He hated the concept of the |

Conveyance
between John Smalley of Turn Free House Whittlesay, Harold Warren Coleman of
Kingswood Grange Reigate and Lieutenant Colonel Robert Wilson McKergow of Twineham
(purchaser) relates to 88 acres and 29 perches of land known as Furze Field
Farm and Rectory Cottages (and East Lodge) Shermanbury. as delineated on the
plan annexed and coloured yellow dated 7th September 1923. Purchase price
£3,953-00.The southern boundary of the property is formed by the River Adur.
(see scans) Document covers 6 sides of document plus Map. Cover is
additionally annotated with details of conveyance of all property with
exception of Rectory Cottages to Robert Wilson McKergow, Peter Corrie Drabble

Sussex between Cowfield and Henfield, north of Brighton. The Indenture
incorporates a schedule of the various fields and properties included within
the title.(see scans) Nice old document, might be of particular interest to
residents of Shermanbury and nearby villages. Lt-Colonel McKergow of the
Sussex Yeomanry was Officer in Command of the 4/4th Battalion Queens Own
Royal West Kent Regiment from 1st January 1917 until disbanded in 1919. I
believe that a biography of ‘Sussex Squire’ Bob McKergow was written a couple
of years ago. The Indenture bears a £40 orange Revenue Stamp. Deed measures
approx 9 inches x 12 inches (say 23cms x 31 cms) |

Two
items, acquired simultaneously from the same source and most probably (but not
certainly) relating to the same Wheelwrights shop and premises owned by the
apparently long term Henfield residents the ‘Martin’ family. Surely the last
Wheelwrights of Henfield. Henfield is between Brighton and Horsham near
Cowfold, Hurstpierpoint etc. Of particular local history interest to present
and former residents of Henfield, flint wall enthusiasts! ,and those
interested in Wheelwrights generally. These are interesting evocative items
which could benefit from research. 1)
Handwritten letter headed ‘Memorandum’ dated 27th May 1840. Paper bears an
ornate fleur-de-lis watermark and with the words (HA?) RRIS &TREMLETT
1837 also present in watermark alongside. The letter is signed by William
Borrer of Henfield in the County of Sussex Esquire and John Martin of the
same place Wheelwright, and reads (extract only) ……..’do hereby declare that
the Brickwall which the undersigned William Borrer has at his own expense
erected on the West Side of his Yard and Premises forming the East boundary
of the undersigned John Martin’s House Yard and premises and also the Flint
Wall which the undersigned William Borrer has also at his own expense erected
at the North end of his garden and premises forming the South boundary of the
undersigned John Martin’s yard and premises and……..etc. etc.’ Each page of
this letter measures approx 12 inches x 7.5 inches and the letter almost
fills three pages with the fourth side bearing the date and a brief
description of the document. The letter is signed by William Borrer and John
Martin and witnessed by Dawson Borrer. Item is in remarkably good condition
with just a couple of pinholes and a few minor marks and Solicitors
pencilling etc. 2)
Conveyance dated 30th July 1904 between ‘Thomas Knight of Eastbourne in the
County of Sussex Ironmonger, Samuel Denman Of Brighton in the County of
Sussex Architect (the vendors)(acting for the estate of Elizabeth Williams
Martin widow deceased) of the one part and John Eardley Hall of Barrow Hill

to the sale of ‘All that House Wheelwrights and Carpenters Shop Buildings
Yard and premises situate at the Southern end of the High Street in the
parish of Henfield and having a frontage to such street of one hundred and
thirty three feet six inches or therabouts as the same premises are more
particularly delineated in the plan drawn on these presents and therein
coloured pink and all mines and minerals down to two hundred feet from the
surface of the ground’. The Sale price of this property very nearly 100 years
ago was £700. Document is folded to give four pages measuring approx 15
inches x 10 inches (say 38 cms x 26 cms) and is in good condition. Over time

orange revenue stamp dated 3rd August 1904 and is generally in good
