south arcade (cir. 1200) and some interesting brasses, &c., which 

 were described by the Eeetor, THE REV. F. WRANGHAM, who, 

 in conjunction with THE REV. W. SYMONDS, afterwards most 

 kindly entertained the Members at tea in the garden of the 

 Rectory, with its beautiful park-like view. After tea a ten 

 minutes' drive brought the party to ASHLEY CHURCH, where 

 the Rector, THE REV. J. L. REDFERN, read a series of notes on 

 the architecture by MR. C. E. PONTING, F.S.A. ASHLEY MANOR, 

 an interesting old house, close by, was then visited, by kind per- 

 mission of Mr. Holborow. Leaving Ashley at 6.10 the motor busses 

 arrived at Malmesbury at 7 p.m., a quarter-of-an-hour late, after 

 an Excursion which everyone agreed had been a delightful one, 

 through country which was quite new to most of those who joined 

 in it. 



At 8.30 the Evening Meeting was held at the Council 

 Chamber, twenty-six Members only being present, with MR. C. 

 PENRUDDOCKE, in the absence of the President, in the chair. 

 THE REV. E. H. GODDARD read a paper by MRS. STORY 

 MASKELYNE, "NOTES ON THE HISTORY OF WROUGHTON," 

 and THE REV. W. SYMONDS read a part of a paper by MR. V. R. 

 PERKINS on "KINGSWOOD ABBEY." ' 



At the conclusion the Chairman thanked the readers of the 

 papers, and Miss Sharpe and the other musicians who had en- 

 livened the proceedings with music. 



FRIDAY, JULY 7th. 



Leaving Malmesbury at 9.15 the motor busses went first to 

 CRUDWELL CHURCH, where, as throughout this day's Excursion, 

 THE REV. E. H. GODDARD called attention to the principal 

 points of interest in the building — the remarkable series of 

 sixteenth century bench ends and the glass of the window in the 

 north aisle still containing remains of representations of five of 

 the seven sacraments which once filled it. The architectural 

 history of this Church presents many interesting and puzzling 

 features and has never yet been properly worked out. From
