- Anecdote*: THE "BONNETTS" PROPERTY
The property known as Bonnetts is located on Rotherfield Hill on the northern side of what is now known as Church Road. It is opposite the western boundary of the Rotherfield St Denys church yard.
The Bonnetts property comprises four elements:
1. A messuage & garden of 1 rood [1/4 acre] with a barn called Bonnets and a "Way" from the messuage to the barn.
2. A garden of 1 rood called Bachelands next to the barn.
3. A parcel of meadow 1/2 acre
4. A kitchen (later described as a wooden building, and a lodge or hovel) once of Alice A'Downe and a garden once of Adam Fermor.
The property can be found on the 1842 Tithe map of Rotherfield [ESRO TD/E 156]:
1. Plot 2413 is identified on the tithe map as a a garden, 31 perches or 0.78 roods in area, and this is considered to be Bachelands.
2. Plot 2415 is identified on the Tithe map as Town Hill House and garden, 1 rood and 34 perches, or 0.46 acres in area. This is considered to be the parcel of meadow of 1/2 acre.
3. Plot 2414 is identified as a lodge and yard, 37 perches or 0.92 roods in area, and is considered to be the lodge or hovel once of Alice A'Downe and a garden once of Adam Farmer.
4. There is a"Way" in the middle of the properties lying between plots 2413 and 2415 together with a curiously shaped plot, possibly a garden, all with no plot numbers on the tithe map. The description of the property in 1627 of "Mes & gdn at Retherfeild Hill [sic.], of 1 rod [rood], and a barn called Bonnetts, with a Way from sd mes to the barn" could mean that the messuage, garden, way and barn totalled 1 rood in area, and if so then this would be close. The messuage (dwelling) may have been located where Town Hill House is located now on the main street, or it could have been in that curiously shaped plot in the Way between the existing barn and Town Hill House. The original cottage called Bonnets may actually be part of the existing barn or could also be in that curiously shaped plot in the Way.
Various transactions relating to this property have been discovered (mostly manorial surrenders and admissions) and are listed below:
On 27 Sep 1516 Thomas Morely is admitted to the property [Latin]: "27 Sep 1516 Copy Surrender of Alice A Downe, wd, to use of Tho Morley. Small pcl [parcel] land (?belonging to) a Cottage called Bonetts on Retherfield Hill." [ESRO SAS AB 395]
On 11 May 1530 John Nynde is admitted to the property [Latin]: "11 May 1530, Copy Surrender of Tho. Morley & Rose his wf [wife] to use of Joh ?Synde & Joan his wf. Cott with ?Kitchen (coquina), & gdn, in Retherfield also small pcl land of 1/2 acre, & garden belonging, late Alice Downe's." [ESRO SAS AB 396]
On 23 Sep 1591 George Nynne is admitted to the property "Comes George Nynne & prays 1 mes. with garden on R. hyll cont. 1 rod & 1 barn formerly called Bennetts with a road to the sd mes. & barn & a garden cont. 1 rod called Bacheland near the sd barn & a parcel of meadow cont. 1/2 ac. & 1 kitchen formerly Alice Adowne's & 1 garden formerly Adam Farmer's of which John N. his father died siesed". [Pullein Transcripts Vol III pg 58]
It appears that Bachelands may have been acquired between 1530 and 1591, as it is not specifically mentioned in the 1530 admission but is mentioned in the 1591 admission. We know that George Nynne alias Barber was a merchant in skins (fellmonger) (Pullein pg 281) and that he also inherited a freehold 22 1/2 acre property in the High Cross area of Rotherfield called Drapers (Pullein Transcripts Vol III pg 57) which is clearly shown on the 1597 survey map. Tanning and leather work were a major industry in Rotherfield (Pullein pg 281).
On 11 Oct 1627 Thomas Nynne als Barber is admitted to the property on the death of his father George [Latin]: "11 Oct 1627 Mes & gdn at Retherfeild Hill [sic.], of 1 rod, and a barn called Bonnetts, with a Way from sd mes to the barn; Also a gdn of 1 rod called Bacheland next to sd barn; Also a pcl meadow of 1/2 ac, & a Kitchen (coquinam) once of Alice Adowne, & a gdn once of Adam Farmer." [ESRO SAS AB 398]
On 7 Jan 1661/62 Thomas Barber alias Nynne leases the property from his mother: "7 Jan 1661/62 Lease by Samuel Theobold of Tonbridge, Kent, clothier and Ann his wife, to Thomas Barber alias Nine, of Frant, Sussex, then servant to Thomas Weller, gent., of a messuage or tenement, outhouse, barn and stall and a small piece of land lying near the said barn, together with all gardens, closes, backside, etc. in Rotherfield Town. Also, 4 pieces of land and wood containing 22 acres, called Drapyers in Rotherfield; all which premises the said Samuel held by right of An his wife made to her by jointure and lease from Thomas Barber alias Nine, her former husband, father of the above named Thomas. Term, the life of the said Ann Theobold party to the deed and mother of the said Thomas: rent yearly 11 pounds/5s. Signature of Samuel Theobold, and mark of Ann Theobold & seals. Witnesses: William Jeffrey, Ann Barber (mk)" [ESRO SAS FA 781]
On 6 Dec 1677 Thomas Nynne alias Barber surrenders the property and Edmund Latter is admitted: "6 Dec 1677 To this Court came Thomas Nynne alias Barbour and surrendered into the hands of the Lords, by the acceptance of their aforesaid steward, one messuage or tenement, one garden and one barn, called Bonnetts, and a certain way leading from the messuage to the aforesaid barn, and also one other garden containing one rood of land called Bathelands lying near the aforesaid barn, and one piece of meadow containing half an acre, and one wooden building, in English a lodge or hovel, and one garden previously Adam Fermor’s, situated and lying in Retherfeild, held by rent of [blank], heriot, relief and other services, to the use of Edmund Latter and his heirs, according to the custom of the aforesaid manor. And thereupon to this court came the aforesaid Edmund and sought that he be admitted to the messuage, tenement, barn, garden, lands and premises aforesaid, with the appurtenances, to whom the lords, through their aforesaid steward, granted seisin thereof by rod, to have and to hold to the same Edmund and his heirs, at the will of the lords, according to the custom of the aforesaid manor, by the rent and services formerly due in respect thereof and by right accustomed. And he gave to the lords, as fine and heriot, a composition, £3 13s 4d. And he is admitted as tenant thereof. And he has seisin by rod. And he makes fealty to the lords." [ESRO ABE 7401]
On 24 Oct 1678 Edmund Latter surrenders the property as settlement on his intended wife Mary Lashmore: "Copy Surrender of Edmund Latter to Use of sd Edmund for Life, & then to Mary Lashmore his intended wife, then to their issue; & his Admission thereon. Mes in which sd Edmund [Latter] dwells, with gdn, on Retherfeild Hill, of 1 rood, & barn called Bonnetts with Way leading from sd mes to sd barn; Also gdn of 1 rood called Bachelands next sd barn, and piece meadow of 1/2 ac, also Lodge or Hovell (tigellum) and gdn formerly of Adam Fermor, in Retherfeild. (A rough endorsement states "Latters Settlement on His Wife. This is copphold [copyhold?] from a thorn left in the fence of the Lawrel Hedg the other side of sd Lawrel hedg westward is freehold")." [ESRO SAS AB 405] This transactions illustrates one means of ensuring that a property belonging to a male could be used for the benefit of his wife after his death but still go to his heirs in the event that his wife remarried (otherwise a woman's property became her husband's property on marriage, but in this case she does not own the property and only has a right to use). Jointure is the term used to describe a provision made by a husband for his wife by settling property upon her at marriage for her use after his death.
On 5 Oct 1706 Mary Latter, widow, & relict of Edmund L., cordwinder [sic.] and Humphrey Latter of Groombridge, Kent, mercer, only son & heir of said Edmund, sign a covenant (a contract of sale) for 125 pounds to surrender the property at the next Court Baron of the Manor of Rotherfield to Humphrey Fowle of Rotherfield, esq. "A Mes with gdn upon Rotherfield Hill, of 1 rood; Also barn called Bonnetts with a Way from the Mes aforsd to sd barn; Also gdn of 1 rood called Bachelands nr sd barn; & pcl meadow of 1/2 ac; Also Lodge or Hovell heretofore a Kitchen & now one gdn heretofore belonging to Adam Fermor; All held of Manor of Rotherfield & now in occpn of Jas Mugridge & late the lands & tenmts of sd Edmund Latter, deed, & by him surrendered on 4 Oct 1678 to Use of sd Edmund for Life & Remainder to sd Mary by name of Mary Lashmore his then intended wife for her Life." [ESRO SAS AB 408]
On 19 Sep 1747, John Latter of Tunbridge, Kent cordwainer, paid Humphrey Fowle 140 pounds for the property and a more detailed description is given: "Mes or tenmt with barn, bldgs, closes, gdns, orchds, etc, in Rotherfield, bounding to High St on S [South], to mes and gdn of sd Humphry F. on W, & to mes and lands of sd Humphry F. now in occpn of Jas Mugridge the elder on N & E, all of 1 ac, in occpns of Hen Latter & Edw Taylor." [ESRO SAS AB 410]
On 23 Dec 1854 the property was surrendered by Spencer Shelley on the death of Sir John Shelley, and the Earl of Chichester & Viscount Gage were admitted as the new owners. The property was described as: "Mes [messuage] with gdn [garden] on Rotherfield Hill, of 1 rood; Also Bn [barn] called Bennetts [sic.] with a Way leading from sd mes to sd bn [said messuage to said barn]; Also a gdn of 1 rood called Backland [sic.] nr sd bn, & 1 piece of meadow of 1/2 ac, & a Lodge or Hovel, afterwards a gdn, once Farmers since Latters;" [ESRO SAS AB 1461]
Notes Concerning Some of the People Mentioned:
1. Bonnett - the court rolls for the manor of Rotherfield in 1456 has the entry: "The homag present that the tenement of Simon Bonnet viz the plastered hall & grange, are ruiness. Therefore he has a day before Easter next under pain of 13/4 [13s/4d fine?] 34HVI [1456]". It gives some description of the house, if indeed this was "Bonnets". Note that a grange, in this context, probably means a barn or granary, as this is the old meaning of the word. Two years earlier, in 1454, Simon Bonnet was also mentioned again in the court rolls for the same problem: "The Homag present that the buildings of John Astyn are in decay in everything. And the house of Simon Bonnet. And the houses of John at Fryth, John Hunt & Thos A'Downe". At least this is evidence of a family called Bonnet in Rotherfield in the 15th Century, although we cannot be certain about the house.
2. Alice A'Downe - no connection identified. Although A'Downe of Rotherfield is a name which appears in the Barber family tree, it is via the Latter family who married into the Barber alias Nynne family much later in 1639.
3. Thomas Morely - at present no connection has been proven. However, he surrendered a second property called Drapers to the Nynne alias Barber family in the 1500s. While there is no actual record of surrender, he did own Drapers in 1509 as evidenced in a quit rental, and from c1580 it is in the hands of the Nynne alias Barber family up until 1787. The two transfers lead one to suspect a family connection but there is no proof.
4. Adam Farmer/Fermor - suspected of being a family relative of the Nynne alias Barber family, as "John Nen married Alis Farmer" on 8 Apr 1554 in Rotherfield. He is possibly a brother to Alis Farmer. John Nynne's will (probate 25 May 1591) named Adam Farmer, son of John Farmer, as one of the overseers.
5. Samuel Theobold - third husband of Ann (nee Latter, married first husband William Heath 1630 and married second husband Thomas Nynne alias Barber 1639). Ann Latter is the daughter of Edmund Latter and Agnes Alchorne (nee A'Downe), baptised 11 Dec 1608 at Rotherfield. According to Pullein, Edmund Latter acquired a property called Salters in Rotherfield in 1595 (Pullein p303).
6. Edmund Latter - likely the grandson of Edmund Latter and Agnes Alchorn (nee A'Downe) - and the son of John Latter bap. 15 Jan 1636/37. He is mentioned in Edmund Latter's will of 1654 in Tonbridge. Another possibility is that he is actually Edmund Heath, son of Anne Latter (to William Heath, her first husband) who may have changed his surname to Latter (a possibility?).
7. Humphrey Fowle - notes from Bill Green (a Fowle family researcher): In the autumn of 1747 Humphrey Fowle was approaching 65 years of age and was apparently selling at least some of his many holdings (sold messuage etc in Balcombe in November). It should be noted that he was a Rotherfield church warden in 1714-16. As an interesting side light when he died in 1756 he had no male heir so he left everything to a Thomas Peckham with whom he lived. Mr. Peckham was to take the Fowle name to preserve the Fowle line. Peckham died without issue and that was the end of the Rotherfield junior Fowle line. See also Pullein - there is a lot of history on the Fowles.
Author's Comments:
The Grade II listed property Town Hill House in Church Road, Rotherfield (also known as Kingsclere in the past) incorporates the major part of the property known in the old manorial records as "Bonnetts" – in particular the barn and the way. The house dates from the 18th Century, so is later than the period of interest here.
The piece of land referred to as Bachelands fronts on to Church Road and has a surviving stone wall on the road boundary which was the subject of archaeological investigation in 2003, and some parts were dated to the 15th and 16th centuries. The house behind the wall is known today as "The Friars" and is fairly recent. It seems to have always been a garden, at least up until 1854. There is speculation of an association between Bachelands and John Bache/Bathe, rector of Rotherfield 1406 to 1430.
The outline of the Way on the 1842 tithe map has curious indentations and shapes, and the description of the property refers to a number of gardens and structures. It would surely be an interesting site for archaeological excavation in the future.
IMAGES. - Anecdote: Image: An early 20th-century postcard of the Bonnetts property now called Town Hill House (called Kings-clere at that time) in Church Road, Rotherfield. Note the high brick wall in front of the plot called Bachelands (now a house called The Friars), with the plot appearing to be vacant land at that time. The entrance to the "Way" between Bachelands and Town Hill House is clearly visible.
