tions had becn made under the direction of Sir P. P. 

 Acland in several places in and around the remains of thc 

 Castle of Stoke de Courcy, but very few characteristic por- 

 tions of the original structure remain, with the exception 

 of the ancient bridge across the moat, and parts of the 

 main entrance. Its general plan corresponds with the 

 Edwardian type. The Church was then visited, the inte- 

 resting characteristic features of which will form, as they 

 deserve, the subject of distinct and separate notice. In the 

 raeanwhile the Cornmittee have given arnong the illustra- 

 tions sketches of the examples the Church supplies of the 

 early and later Norman capitals in close proximity. 



In consequence of the weather, the Excursion planned 

 for the following day was abandoned, and the proceedings 

 closcd with a cordial vote of thanks to Sir P. P. Acland, 

 Bart., for his generous hospitality, and also to the Hon. 

 P. P. Bouverie, M.P., as President.
