Sir Alexander Glen was a former MI5 operative and friend of Ian Fleming, and on whom it is said he based his James Bond character. From his autobiography: Glen had a distinguished career in three fields: the Arctic, the Balkans and the City. While an undergraduate at Balliol, Glen found himself unexpectedly on an expedition to Spitsbergen and became so enthused by the Arctic that his work, continued on a further expedition in 1935-36, resulted in recognition from the Royal Geographical Society and the Royal Society. Here was a testing ground from which Glen gained the valuable experience that was of so much use in the war which was to come. Through another coincidence, Glen was in Europe in 1939. As a RNVR officer, he had been sent as Assistant Naval Attache to Belgrade, but escaped in 1941 when Hitler made his ruthless all-out attack on Yugoslavia. Within 24 hours of his return, he became involved again in the Arctic. After the fall of Norway it was decided Spitsbergen must be evacuated and its valuable coalmines destroyed. This was done - mistakenly, as quickly became evident. A small Norwegian force then returned to Spitsbergen and held this lonely outpost, vital to the North Russian convoy route. Glen accompanied both operations. Two and a half years after leaving Yugoslavia, Glen returned to assist the Partisan resistance. Decorated by both the Norwegians and the Yugoslavs for bravery, Alexander Glen moved after the war into the world of shipping and travel.

Provenance: Crookham House, Crookham, Newbury, Berkshire. In 1748 the neighbouring Chamberhouse estate was purchased by George Amyand, he later extended his landholdings in the area with the purchase of part of Crookham manor and by 1768 had built the first Crookham House on the site of the present one. The Chamberhouse manor and estates were sold to Henry Tull in 1798, his family were living in Crookham House by 1847. It was they who pulled it down in about 1850 and erected the first phase of the present house on the same site. It can be observed that the building in its present state shows much evidence of structure and detail pre dating 1850 despite statements of having been `pulled down`. In 1830, Crookham House was involved in the so-called `Captain Swing` riots when agricultural workers, concerned about their standard of living, roamed the countryside, breaking the agricultural machinery which they believed was keeping wages down. On the evening of 17 November 1830 a group of men arrived at Crookham House (the forerunner of the present building) intending to smash machines owned by the lord of the manor, Richard Tull. They were met by Tull himself, his own labourers and special constables, but the mob failed to disperse. Tull and his men seized the ringleaders and a dozen or so were taken to Reading gaol. Ironically, it was a relative of the squire of Crookham, Jethro Tull of Prosperous Farm near Hungerford, who had published his influential treatise on agricultural reform `Horse Hoeing Husbandry` a century before and invented the seed drill. Crookham House is in a simple neo-classical style and was built in three phases between 1850 and 1900. It was not destined to be a country residence for long: in 1939 the house, as well as a number of cottages and farms on the estate, was sold. Crookham House was bought by the Great Western Railway Company, and during the Second World War, their Chief Goods Manager had his offices there.
