borough.) At Charlton was an Alien Priory Cell to the Pre- 
monstratensian Abbey of L’isle Dieu, which was founded by 
Reginald de Pavely, A.D. 1187: ard he being a great Wilts 
landowner, added to its support by some of his property in 
this county. On suppression, temp. Rich. II., Charlton Cell 
was given to St. Katharine’s Hospital, near the Tower, London. 
Eton Oollege had it for seven years, temp. Hen. VI. A grant 
to the Canons of Windsor, in Edw. IV., had no effect, owing 
to a prior grant to Fotheringhay College: with which, at the 
Dissolution, it was sold to Sir William Sherington. 
Charlton Church (St. Peter’s), was formerly a chapelry of 
Upavon: and Upavon Church, belonged (as an Alien Cell) to St. 
Wandragesil’s in Normandy. When taken, upon suppression, 
from the Norman House, Upavon Church was given to Ivy 
Church monastery in Wilts, 1 Hen. VI. Charlton Vicarage 
is now in the gift of Christ Church, Oxon. 
A small chapel on the north side of the nave of Charlton 
Church, was (according to an inscribed brass now against the 
wall) “defied by William Chaucey, who died A.D. 1424, 
and was there buried.” A piscina in the wall shows that 
there was once an altar: but there is no record to throw fur- 
ther light upon its history. [See Kite’s Wilts Brasses, p. 49. ] 
 Cuetworty, near Cricklade, (Hundred of Ditto.) A ruined chapel 
here is mentioned in a grant by Walter Camme, Abbot of 
Malmsbury, c. 1361. “Two crofts near the decayed chapel of 
Chelewrden on the westside,called Church-croftes,[apud fractam 
Capellam de Chelewrden ex parte Occidentali quee Church- 
croftes appellantur.” [See Mr. J. Y. Akerman’s paper, 
Archeologia, vol. xxxvii., 1857, p. 264. ] 
Cueverett, Lrrriz. (Swanborough Hundred.) In the parish 
church was a chantry of St. Mary. The first patron named 
is Sir Alexander de Cheverell, A.D. 1297. [Wilts Inst.] It
