Moreton-in-Marsh


Moreton-in-Marsh the Name
A market town and parish in the upper division of the hundred of WESTMINSTER, county of GLOUCESTERSHIRE, - (1831 Topographical Index of England). The earliest signs of a settlement around Moreton dates back to 1st century Roman earthworks predating the Fosse Way, the Roman road that runs through the centre of Moreton-in-Marsh. The town is of Saxon origin and is over 1000 years old, the name Moreton meaning 'Moorland Settlement, and the much misunderstood 'in Marsh' originally being 'Henmarsh' - boggy land where wild birds were to be had.

*Gloucestershire 1730 Magna Britannia:
Moreton-Hendmarsh, a small Market Town, and Parish consisting most of pasture, the Evenlode running on the borders of it. It had a Market in the Reign of K. Henry III. but has long been disused. It lies in the great Road from London to Worcester, and the Roman Fosse-way passeth thro' it. About a Mile from hence in the London Road, are four shires Stones, where the four Counties of Glocester, Oxford, Worcester and Warwick meet and join.
Ansfred of Cormeille held this Manor in the Conqueror's Reign, and it continued some Time in his Family; but it came to the Abbey of Westminster in King Henry III's Reign, in which it continued till the Dissolution, and then was given to the Dean and Chapter, who now enjoy it, but have leased it out to Mr. Batson of Bourton-on-the-Hill, who is the present Lord of it.
The Church is a Chapel of Ease to Bourton, and is supplied by the same Minister, dedicated to St. David, the Patron of the Welsh Nation, who is said to have lived 147 years, and done many Miracles; but has a Right of Burial granted to it by Pope Julius in 1512. The building is small, but has a North Ile, and a Tower at the West End, with Battlements.
There are several Inscriptions in it for the Creswick's Family, and besides some small Gifts to the Poor, they have a Stock of £60 to set the Poor on Work, given by several Persons.

The nave has very few monuments. Of those which remain, the foremost place must certainly be taken by the dark mutilated slab under the easternmost arch on the north side. Remigius, it will be remembered, was originally buried near the altar of the Holy Cross, where his tomb-slab was broken by the beams which fell in flames from the roof of the Norman church. Some years ago, a monumental slab, in two parts, with carved subjects, which might very well date back to the time of Remigius, was brought to light in the cloisters. Canon Massingberd had this removed to the spot where it now lies, not far from the original burial-place of the bishop. The carving consists of various sculptural subjects in low relief; it is now much worn. The surrounding inscription records the foundation of the cathedral by Remigius in the year 1072, and the restitution of the tomb-slab in 1872. On the opposite side, at the end of the aisle wall, is a marble tablet in memory of Michael Honywood (b. 1597: d. 1681)(, who was made Dean of Lincoln in the year of the Restoration. The present library was erected by him at a cost of £780, and received his collection of books.

4. On the west wall of the North chancel is a large monument with the recumbent figure of a lady, and figures of two daughters and one son and this inscription:-
Ann wife of Josias Clerk of Essex, Gentleman, daughter to John MOILE of Buckwell Esquire and of Mary his wife daughter to Robert HONYWOOD of Charing in the County of Kent Esquire She lived 31 yeares a fayre example of virginity, wedlock and singular pietye She dyed a happy mother of two daughters and one son whose birth conveyed her to a crown of glory in ye yeare of Grace 1631 August 24.

To the tender trust of that sadd earth which gave it birth We recommend this sacred dust. The pretious ointment of her name That had no taint that had no soyle We keep to oyle The wings of fame The higher storie Of her rare soule The heav'ns enroule In sheets of glorie If perfect good Did ere reside In comon flesh and blood In her it liv'd, with her it dyed Reader, tis thought our universall mother Will hardly ope her womb for such another.

Sub cruce tuta quies Et tu Alienigena Gratus ades, Silector ades Perlege Sever, Ver, Sincer Probitatis, Pulchritudinis, Pietatis Epitomen Sed nihil hic orbis qd Perenet Possidet Serius, Ocyus Omnium versatur urna Heri tuum erat, et hon est Hodie tuum est, et non erit Cras tuum erit, si vixceris Cuncta humana Fumus umbra vanitas Ad sumum Nihil Lector Valeao et Memento.
