Same to the Surveyor General of Crown Lands for
a particular and ratal of a long strip of ground
lying on the east side of St. James's Park wall
extending from William Storey's house at the
south end next Long Ditch to Webb's house towards
the north, being 570 foot long by 30 foot broad
(including both Webb's and Storey's houses) and
bounded on the east by an old drain or sewer which
is since filled up and encroached upon by the late
builders of the new street next adjoining (now
called Duke Street) and not now left above 25 foot
deep in most places : all with a view to a lease thereof
to Sir Henry Fane for 31 years at 6s. 8d. per an.
rent : with a covenant that the lessee shall make
such compositions and agreements with the respective
adjacent owners or inhabitants as the Treasury
Lords shall approve and not to build thereon without
said Lords' approval.
Prefixing : report by William Harbord, said Surveyor
General, dated March 22 last, on said Fane's petition
for same. The premises were petitioned for in
1681 by Henry Vaughane, who then proposed to
give 500l. fine and 10l. per an. rent for 99 years'
term if he might have liberty to build. They were
petitioned for again in 1685 by Mris. Mary Gounter :
on both which petitions Mr. Fisher reported, shewing
that the premises were formerly in the hands of
Edward Jolley, an ancient servant to Charles I,
by licence [of] Philip, Earl of Pembroke, then
keeper of Whitehall with the Cockpit and [St.
James's] Park ; that said Jolley, having bestowed
cost in building thereon, obtained a new grant
thereof from the Duke of Albemarle when keeper
of the said park : but in 1663 Charles II being
informed that the said houses and ground were
convenient for his service, commanded Sir Charles
Harbord [then Surveyor General of Lands] to
view same and contract with Jolley for his interest
therein and he advised payment of 160l. (which
Jolley had paid to said Duke for his said grant)
and 100l. for his charges in building. Upon the
payment of said 260l. and the surrender of said
Jolley's interest the premises were delivered to
Webb and same has been enjoyed by him and
Storey for feeding and looking to the fowls and
birds in the park. But this 260l. was not esteemed
the full value, for the ground was the King's before,
and the Duke's right was but as keeper for life and
Jolley's interest was only an equitable one. Neither
Vaughan nor Gounter obtained a grant of the
premises and since the finishing and new building
adjoining, several parts of the ground have been
separated and used with the houses contiguous,
the whole having been let by Webb to Moses Pitts,
one of the builders, for 50l. per an., and by him
[Pitts] to several others upon improvement. In
1687 Sir Edward Hales obtained a grant of 70 feet
by 40 feet of the premises next to a house he had
then lately purchased and 30 foot more northerly
against a house in the possession of Avis Fashions,
widow ; which was valued to him by Mr. Fisher
at 5s. a foot or 17l. 10s. per an., but was passed
for 31 years at 10l. per an. rent, with a power to
erect kitchens thereon. There is about 100 foot
more that lies adjoining the house late in possession
of the late Lord Jefferyes, upon which very considerable
buildings are erected at the charge of
said Pitts, who made some proceedings towards a
grant thereof by the help of said Jeffryes, who had
(as is alleged) procured a warrant therefor from
the late King James. But the grant was not
perfected and Mr. Pitts' interest in the house
adjoining is now disposed to Mr. Adiel Mills, a
stationer in Paternoster Row : and this 100l. foot,
considering its convenience to the great house
adjoining, may well be worth a ground rent of
10s. a foot. The remainder (except Sir Edward
Hales's) is about 400 foot (including both Webb's
and Storey's) and will be 100l. rent if valued at
5s. per foot front, as Sir Edward Hales's was, and
as some of the others have agreed to pay to the
assigns of Webb, who claims the custody of the
whole by permission from the Crown. This total
rent of 150l. may be capable of some farther improvement
if the lessee may have liberty to build.
