Historical Description
On the west of Putney is the parish of Barnes. Heydegger, the master of the revels in George the Second’s reign, was for some time tenant of Barn Elms, and the following story is told of him. The king having given him notice that he intended to sup with him one evening, and that lie should come from Richmond by water, Heydegger resolved to surprise his majesty with a specimen of his art of amusing. The king’s attendants, who were let into the secret, contrived that he should not arrive at Barn Elms before night; and it was not without difficulty that he could find his way up the avenue that led to the house. When he came to the door all was dark, and he began to be very angry that Heydegger should be so ill prepared for his reception. Heydegger suffered the king to vent his anger, and affected to make some awkward apologies, when in an instant the house and avenues were in a blaze of light, a great number of lamps having been so disposed as to communicate with each other, and to be lit at the same moment. The king laughed heartily at the device, and departed much pleased with his entertainment.
The village of Barnes consists of a few straggling houses opposite the Common; of a mean street leading to the water-side, and a row of elegant houses facing the Thames, on a broad terrace nearly half a mile long. Barnes is described in Domesday Book under the title of Berne, in the hundred of Brixistan, as belonging to the church of St. Paul’s. The parish is bounded on the north by the Thames; on the east and south by Putney, and on the west by Mortlake. The church of Barnes exhibits considerable antiquity, and is supposed to have been erected about the time of Richard the First; though it has since undergone many alterations. The windows of the north wall of the chancel are in their original state, narrow, and pointed. A considerable part of the walls are chiefly of stone and flint, but the square tower, built of brick, was probably erected about the end of the 16th century, if not later. —The most ancient monument recorded as once existing in this church was to the memory of William Millebourne, Esq., who died in 1415. This consisted of a figure in brass, upon a slab, representing a man in armour bearing a dagger on his right, and a long sword on his left side. —Mr. Lysons has preserved the memory of this brass by an engraving, and Mr. Bray mentions an old house on Barnes Green as belonging to the family of Milbourn, who continued in this parish till the reign of Henry VIII.
On the outside of the church, in the south wall, is a small tablet of stone, to the memory of Edward Rose, of the city of London, who directed that rose-trees should be planted on each side of the wall, on each side of his tablet, and bequeathed the sum of 20l. to the poor of this parish, upon condition that the churchwardens should keep in repair the paling which protected the trees.
At his seat at Barn Elms Sir Francis Walsingham was honoured with several visits from Queen Elizabeth. While Barn Elms belonged to the family of Cartwright, the mansion afforded a retreat to the poet Cowley; but during his short residence here, he is supposed to have contracted a lingering fever, of which he died at Chertsey, in July, 1667.
In the reign of George the Second this house was tenanted by the celebrated Heydegger, the king’s master of the revels; but in 1750 this and the lands were purchased by Sir Richard Hoare, who was succeeded in his property by his eldest son, who was created a baronet in June, 1786, and on the death of his widow in 1800, the property descended by will to Henry Hugh, eldest son of Sir Richard.
The grounds attached to Barn Elms comprise above 600 acres of land, and being surrounded nearly on three sides by the river Thames, possess the combined advantages of rural beauty and perfect retirement. One footpath only leading from the river to the village of Barnes, intersects its peaceful and elegant demesne. A row of fine elmtrees decorates its border on the river Thames; and the house is approached through a venerable avenue. The mansion-house, built of brick, was considerably enlarged by the late Sir Richard Hoare, Bart., in 1771. The gardens at the back are well laid out, and are enriched by much tine wood and a large ornamental sheet of water. — Sir Richard Colt Hoare, the second baronet, and elder brother to the present possessor, Henry Hugh Hoare, is distinguished by his literary attainments, and the parish of Barnes has at different times afforded a residence to several well-known characters in the annals of literature and the arts, among whom may be mentioned Henry Fielding, Handel, and Hughes, the poet, who wrote a short poem, entitled Barn Elms, &c.
The celebrated Kit Cat Club was also held here, which derived its name from a person called Christopher Cat, who was either a pastry-cook or a tavern-keeper, and supplied the members with delicious mutton-pies, at the original place of their meeting in London; but at Barn Elms they met in a house belonging to Tonson, the bookseller, secretary to the meeting; and the portrait of each member was painted by Sir Godfrey Kneller, who, adapting a shorter size, on account of the room, this was called the Kit Cat size. —The number of the members of this celebrated club was at least forty-seven.
