More about this scene

The tower of the church dates from the 14th century. Otherwise, much of the church was rebuilt in the late 1800s. Inside is a wonderful window by William Morris and Edward Burne-Jones that dates to the 1870s.

Sparked a Memory for you?

If this has sparked a memory, why not share it here?

James Holt was my gg grandfather on my mother's side, and worked as Head Gamekeeper for the Duke of Sutherland from 1875. He died in 1899. My grandfather, Ernest Holt, James's grandson, lived with them when he was a boy, attended Rosemount School, and named his own home (now sadly demolished) in Banstead, Surrey, after Chetwynd. I would love to know if anyone knows anything about the Holts. Thankyou very much. Jo Clutton
