Treasury reference to William Harbord, Surveyor
General of Crown Lands, of the petition of William
Lambard, shewing that Charles II granted 1671,
June 13, to Henry Broncker, esq., the site and manor
place of Gillingham in Kent and the two marshes
called Court Marsh and Oxe Marsh for 41 years for
10l. 13s. 4d. per an. and all the wood in Hawth
Wood, Frith Wood and Westwood, "paying 6l.
per cent.," and several other pieces of land and
woods : all which premises Broncker in 1674
assigned to Allington Painter of Gillingham, esq.,
who died in 1679, leaving William Lambard of
Lennoche in Kent, executor and guardian to his two
sons : that in the lifetime of said Painter Charles II
erected a fort called Gillingham fort on said freehold,
"where has all along been kept about 40
guns and several gunners there constantly on duty,"
who do great spoil to all the lands thereabout and
take part of the lands away : that in James II's
time a platform was built on Court Marsh on which
20 guns were mounted and room for 60 more, five
gunners doing duty there and other sentinels kept,
who did great spoil, taking their sheep and hay
and trod down the walls to the great charge of
the owners : therefore praying that in consideration
of such losses their Majesties will order their marsh
men to inn it, or [alternatively] to abate the rent
16l. 9s. 4d. yearly and grant a longer term and they
[petitioners] will inn it themselves ; which if not
done will be prejudicial to the river and so to their
Majesties' men of war. |

Same to the Deputy Surveyor General of Crown
Lands for a particular of the island of Holy Island
with a view to an extension of lease thereof to
Mris. Barbara Collingwood for 20 years at 26s. 8d.
per an. and fine of 150l.
Prefixing : report by William Tailer, Deputy Surveyor
General, on said Collingwood's petition for same,
ut supra, p. 1650. The island was petitioned for
in April, 1672, by Mr. Daniell Collingwood (supra,
Calendar of Treasury Books, Vol. III, p. 1223), and
thereon Sir Charles Harbord, then Surveyor General
of Crown Lands, reported that it was granted out of
the Crown by James I to the Earl of Dunbar, from
whom it descended to the late Earl of Suffolk (by
his mother's right as daughter to the said Earl of
Dunbar), who sold it long since to Sir John Brook,
afterwards Lord Cobham, for about 600l. ; and
Charles II was induced to re-purchase it (at what
price appears not) for a fishery, for which it was
reputed to be extraordinarily well situated ; that it
had been certified in 1670 by Mr. Daniell Collingwood
and others to be almost circular, about nine
miles in circumference, containing the best and
safest port in the North, having a depth at low
water of 2½ fathom or more and 5 at full water,
the haven capable of receiving 100 sail of ships,
and with the expense of 200l. might be enlarged to
hold as many more, with an old town and castle
situate on the south-west part, nigh the harbour,
and consisting of a manor and about 50 or 60 freeholders,
the revenue thereof being then 50l. per an.
The lease to Collingwood is dated 1672, May 20,
for 31 years at 1l. 6s. 8d. rent, and contains the
whole island with all tithes, houses, mills etc.,
wrecks etc., tolls, Customs, anchorage etc., as amply
as granted to the King by Christopher Lister, except
the use of the port, haven and castle, with power
to enlarge and fortify same and all derelict and
accressed lands : which exceptions ought to be
continued in a new grant.
Daniel Collingwood is long since dead and did
not assign in his lifetime. In 1685 Ralph Milborne
petitioned for a reversion, alleging the consent of
George Collingwood, brother and administrator to
Daniel, and since dead. The present petitioner
alleges that her said brother designed the premises
for her and her sisters with whom she is agreed. No
improvement was made of this island in Daniel
Collingwood's time, "as he thought it capable of,"
nor was any fishery established. The collection of
the small rents is expensive and the Governor takes
4l. per an. out of the profits, which sum he claims
for the anchorage. The chief profit arises out of
the warren, which is lately much destroyed by
soldiers, and the place very poor. A fine of 150l.
is therefore sufficient for the new lease. |

Report to the King [Queen] from the Treasury Lords
on the petition of Charles, Earl of Monmouth, in
behalf of himself and the rest of the owners of the
South Dyke yacht : on a reference from the King
[Queen] dated the 3rd inst. : petitioners setting
forth that said yacht was sent express from the
coast of England to give notice to your Majesty's
Fleet that the French Fleet were on our coast ; and
in her voyage back met with a vessel called the
Prince William, Jaques Verdonck master, laden
with French wines, brandies and other goods of the
growth of France, which she took as prize, and
brought her into Portsmouth ; but the yacht
having a commission from your Majesty as other
men of war have (but manned and victualled at
petitioners' own cost), they are informed they can
have no benefit of the said prize ; wherefore they
pray a grant of the said prize to their own use.
Hereon the Treasury Lords report "your Majesty
may, if you so please, grant to the petitioners such
right or interest as your Majesty hath or may have
in or to the said ship or her lading." |
