Exhibited On loan to the Royal Armouries, H.M. Tower of London, and Leeds, (AL 37). Literature F. H. Cripps Day, "A List of Churches Containing Armour" in Laking 1920-2, Vol. V, p. 187. Victoria County Histories (Hampshire), Vol. IV, p. 242. The Wootton St Lawrence armet hung until recent years over a bracket in the church, marked with the initials T. H. of Sir Thomas Hooke, died 1677, whose monument it formed. He acquired Tangier Park in 1660 and built a house there in 1662, which his son sold in 1710. Although broadly conforming to the Italian fashions of about 1440-1520 (see Blair 1958, pp. 86-91 & 133, figs 117-8; and Laking 1920-2, Vol. II, pp. 71-98, figs 428-41), the Wootton St Lawrence armet, like all other examples of its kind preserved in English churches, lacks the marks usually found on Italian-made armour of that period. It further differs from its Italian counterpart in having ventilation-slots pierced in the right of its visor and hearing-holes in each of its cheek-piece. As such slots and holes are a common feature of Flemish armets and close helmets of the early 16th century, mostly deriving from English churches (for example, Laking 1920-2, Vol. II, figs 443 & 445-7), it seems probable that the Wootton St Lawrence armet, like much armour used in England in its time, would likewise have come from the Low Countries. The strong shaping of its cheek-pieces to the chin and nape, and the depth of the face-opening cut into their front edges suggest that Wootton St Lawrence armet dates from no earlier than the last decade of the 15th century, whereas the uncovered hinges of the arms of its visor and the turned rather than flanged edges of its vision-slit suggest a date no later than the second decade of the 16th century. Closely relating to the Wootton St Lawrence armet, is one in St Mary`s Church, Mablethorpe, Lincolnshire, lacking its visor and cheek-pieces (G. F. Laking 1920-2, p. 206, figs 1672a & b). It has precisely the same form of skull, the same form of brow-reinforce and the same form of piercings over the ears as the former. Other armets are recorded in the churches at Beverly, Yorkshire; Buckland, Berkshire; Hawstead, Suffolk; Aldenham, Herts; and Cobham, Kent (G. F. Laking 1920-2, Vol.II, figs 442a, b, d, & e; & Vol. V, figs 1580a-c, 1594a-b & 1801.
