*Leicestershire Manuscript Survey. A manuscript survey entitled 'An Exact and Perfect Survey of the Lordship of Bringhurst in the County of Leicester, being taken and admeasured by the Purch of 16. 1/2. foot, according to the Statute. De Terris mensurandis, by Vincent Wing Supervisor, Octob: 1658', ink on paper, 11 leaves (half-title, title, text, final 2 leaves blank), half-title torn with loss and laid down, large tear to title affecting blank areas and border only, several text leaves torn across without loss and leaves strengthened on foremargins, stitched and rolled in a contemporary vellum sheet with original ties intact, contemporary manuscript surveying notes to vellum inner surface, 4to (text leaves 20 x 15cm unrolled) Vincent Wing (1619-1668), English astrologer, astronomer and land surveyor. Born in North Luffenham, Rutland, he was a highly accomplished mathematician and by the age of 20 he was already a professional land surveyor, almanac-maker and astrologer. He is now chiefly remembered as an astronomer and was notable as a champion of the new astronomical systems of Copernicus and Tycho Brahe. However, it was mostly through his work as a land surveyor that he made his living and, in 1664, he published 'The Art of Surveying'. This manuscript survey gives a rare insight into his practices and presentation of his work. It refers to an open plan field system with the strips of land held by various tenants; a mixture of freehold and copyhold, as the land in Bringhurst was not enclosed until 1804. Tenant names include Sir John Norwich (freehold land) and Richard Green (freehold and copyhold land). Although a few of his maps are known to have survived, no other of his land surveys have been located. (1)
