The Cartae Antiquae of Lord Willoughby de Broke. 

 Fart IV., Wiltshire. Fulton, Bathampton, 

 Codforde, Hanging Langforde, West Harnam. 



Edited by the Eev. J. Harvey Bloom, M.A., Rector of Whitchurch. 

 Printed for the subscribers (5*.) by C. E. Turner. Hemsworth. Cloth, 

 sm. 4to, pp. 15 + 2 pp. of index. Fifty copies only printed. Frontis- 

 piece, photo of Charter of Robert de Builliers of land in Poulton. 



Mr. Bloom is issuing to subscribers full calendars of the deeds belonging 

 to Lord Willoughby de Broke preserved at Compton Verney, giving every 

 name mentioned therein. They are being most conveniently issued in 

 separate counties, but as the Wiltshire deeds only number twenty-four 

 in all, of which sixteen are concerned with Bathampton in Steeple 

 Langford, and three with Poulton — now in Gloucestershire, — and the index 

 gives a total of eighty-four names mentioned — it is only by the lavish 

 use of blank pages and wide margins that a volume can be made up for 

 this county. The preface contains a note on the family of Chesney, or 

 Cheney, of Guernsey and Jersey. The Bathampton deeds are chiefly 

 concerned with the Mompesson family. The volume is well printed and 

 excellently got up.
