Affledwick otherwise Beauchamps *COMPLETED* thanks
« on: Friday 03 April 09 23:36 BST (UK) »
Hi All,

I'm trying to find the location and/or picture of a house called "Affledwick otherwise Beauchamps" somewhere near the Buntingford/Wyddial area in Herts.

There appears to be an old place, possibly a village, called Affledwick in the very early years and I'm wondering of they are one and the same.

Also would like a pic of a place called "Little Court" in Buntingford.

Any ideas or suggestions on where to look or who to ask would be most welcome.

Thanks

Di

Hi,

There is quite a bit about this place on the National Archives Site.  If you google it, it comes up with quite a few details.

Ohhh Lovely Peter - Thank you so much. You never fail to deliver miracles.  :-*

Last I heard Layston Church was on the market as well - sounds like a few of the antiquities in the area are looking for buyers - sad, but that's the way of the world.

I'd been looking for a picture of Little Court for ages so many thanks for that one as well.

Thanks Marg for the TNA suggestion. I have seen (ie copied  ;) ) everything I could find about this place - I just couldn't find the exact location.

Thanks for your help

Di

Hi Di,

Have now located a copy of the engraving of Little Court which appeared in Sir Henry Chauncey's History of Hertfordshire (1700)   ...  it's on the way to you.

Regards   ...   Peter

Hi all, I'm new to this so please make allowances for me ...
I have come across a message from Lady Di asking for the location and/or picture of a house called "Affledwick otherwise Beauchamps" somewhere near the Buntingford/Wyddial area in Herts.  I too am interested in this and would love a picture of the house but don't seem to be able to send Lady Di a personal message.  If you're out there Lady Di, would you kindly email me please?
Thanks very much.
