As her father Prince George was the sole legitimate heir of George III, Charlotte was the heir presumptive to the British throne. After her parents separated in 1798, her father took formal guardianship of Charlotte together with her grandparents, King George III and Queen Charlotte. In 1816 Charlotte married Leopold of Saxe-Coburg-Saafiled, who would later become King Leopold I, the first King of the Belgians. The young royal couple led predominantly at idyllic Claremont in Surrey, but their happiness was tragically cut short when Charlotte died following childbirth in 1817. Charlotte had become extremely popular amongst the public at large in stark contrast to the unpopularity of her father, the Prince Regent, and her death sparked extreme deep mourning thought the whole of Britain. MARY ANN THYNNE, BARONESS CARTERETMary Anne was the third daughter of Thomas Master, the MP for Cirencester. In 1801 she married John Thynne, later 3rd Baron Carteret of Hawnes (1772-1849), son of Thomas Thynne, 1st Marquess of Bath and Lady Elizabeth Cavendish-Bentinck. John Thynne was Vice Chamberlain of the Household at the court of George III, and Mary Ann was appointed Lady of the Bedchamber to Princess Charlotte from 1815 until her death in 1817. As Lady of the Bedchamber, Mary Anne was with Princess Charlotte throughout her two day labour which resulted in the birth of her still born son followed by her own death in the early hours of 6th November 1817.After the death of Princess Charlotte, Mary Anne became Lady of the Bedchamber to Princess Sophia. In 1838 her husband inherited the title 3rd Baron Carteret of Hawnes, and she became Baroness Carteret. Mary Anne died in 1863 aged 86.

AN EARLY VICTORIAN GOLD AND PEARL COPY OF THE BALLYSPELLAN BROOCH WITH REGISTRATION MARKS FOR 25TH JULY 1849The hooped gold brooch set with half pearls in cut down collet settings, with Celtic knot style ground, verso etched with Ogham script, with applied lozenge registration mark Size/dimensions: 5.8cm diameterGross weight: 18 gramsThe pearls are untested and unwarranted for natural origin. The Ballyspellan brooch, also known historically as the Ogham brooch and the Clarendon brooch, was discovered in Ballyspellan, Kilkenny, Ireland in 1806. Originally owned by the Royal Dublin Society, the decorative silver brooch which displayed four rows of Ogham script to the reverse, was initially copied by Waterhouse Co., whose first example was bought by the Countess of Clarendon, who in turn inspired the young Queen Victoria's interest in similar pieces. Waterhouse was known to create the brooch in a number of materials including gold and Irish pearls as seen in this example. Details of Waterhouse's original illustration of the then titled Ogham or Clarendon Brooch can be seen illustrated in Charlotte Gere and Judy Rudoe Jewellery in the Age of Queen Victoria, 2010, page 449.Condition Report: The brooch has some signs of wear and use, a small split to one of the arms and to the sides of the setting, and other smaller split to the other arm. One of the pearls has slightly been pushed into the setting. The pearls are untested and unwarranted for origin Condition Report Disclaimer

Fragments of a Zeppelin metal, boxed, shot down in 1916In the First World War Britain suddenly became vulnerable to aerial attack. Alf Wilkinson records a memorable turning-point in the battle against the Zeppelin menace.On the night of the 2-3 September 1916 Lieutenant William Leefe Robinson became the first pilot to shoot down a Zeppelin raider over Britain. He was immediately acclaimed as a hero and awarded the Victoria Cross. He was feted wherever he went, and received a bounty of £4,200 – an absolute fortune at the time. What was so special about Lieutenant Robinson’s action, and did he deserve a VC?We are used to talking about the Blitz during the Second World War but in 1914 nothing like aerial bombing had taken place before. It was only a few years since Bleiriot had managed to cross the Channel, and the old idea of Britain as an ‘island fortress’ was still strongly held. And yet, soon after the start of the war, the German Navy had bombardedeast-coast ports – especially Hartlepool – inflicting casualties. Count von Zeppelin had been developing airships since 1900 and both the German Navy and Air Force had ordered some, seeing them primarily as airborne reconnaissance, although one did bomb Brussels in August 1914. The Kaiser was very reluctant to order bombing of Britain, feeling that the reaction of neutral countries would have an impact on Germany
