In the Wilts Instit., one Presentation only occurs, A.D. 1537. 
At Calne there was also a Free Chapel or Priory of St. John 
of Jerusalem, then worth £4 4s. 11d. In1 Edw. VI., William 
Blake aged 26 years was Incumbent. ‘“ Mem. The said 
Incumbent is no preest: but had the said Pryory or Free 
Chapel given hym for his exhibition, to fynd hym to the 
Schole.” (Augm. Off.) 
In or near the North Field at Calne is ground called “ The 
Armitage,” which is perhaps a corruption of Hermitage.

“% 

Church now standing close by the interesting old manor house 
of Chalfield is the parish Church of Great Chalfield. A small 
district adjoining is called Litt/e Chalfield, which, it seems, 
once had a church or chapel of its own. Great Chalfield 
church, now standing, is not much larger than a good sized 
room. The church of Chalfield Parva must have been very 
small indeed. The late Rector of Chalfield, the Rev. Richard 
Warner, says, (in Gent. Mag., March, 1838) that Little Chal- 
field belonged to Sherborne Abbey, co. Dorset. This is incorrect. 
He was misled by a similarity of names (Bradford, &c.) in the 
two counties of Dorset and Wilts. The patronage of Little 
Chalfield, from A.D. 13862 to 1537, (when it disappears,) was 
in the lay families of Percy, Rous of Imber, co. Wilts, John 
Boorne, John Westbury, and Hawise Westbury his widow. 
There are no remaius of the building.

In A.D. 1519 the Tropenell family had the manor of Neston, 
with the chapel of St. John Baptist, and a close adjoining in 
the Ridge in Neston. Of this chapel (destroyed and forgotten), 
I was first made aware by some extracts shown to me that 
had been taken by a Mr. Waldron many years ago, out of the 
“ Book of Tropenell,” a MS. volume (relating to the estates of 
that old Wilts family) which has been long lost sight of, but 
was in the custody of Mr. Dickinson, of Bowdon, in 1744. 
Further evidence has been since met with, viz., among the
