Edward Welby Pugin (1834-1875) [By or For]. A series of seven original designs for ecclesiastical statues or stained-glass windows, c. 1850-60, linen-backed cartoons in pencil & watercolour on paper, the largest measuring 200 x 92cm, the smallest 108 x 50cm, rolled. The illustrations came from St. Mary's Abbey in Oulton, Staffordshire, which was designed by E. W. Pugin and built in 1853-54. Statues in the church bear similarities to these designs, particularly those of Jesus, Mary holding baby Jesus, and Joseph. The church contains furnishings by Pugin, Hardman, Powell, and Pippet. The designs are unsigned, so the assumption is that these were produced by or for E. W. Pugin. The central designs are generally good but creased, the edges are dusty & dirty, some are better preserved than others, the smallest is torn, some appear unfinished, one is inscribed 'Belonging to The R. R. Lady Abbess' (7)

AUGUSTUS WELBY NORTHMORE PUGIN (1812-1852) OR EDWARD WELBY PUGIN (1834-1875) NEEDLEWORK RUG, CIRCA 1860 wool, with later linen backing, with later cotton binding to each end, the panel a section of a larger carpetDimensions:223cm x 147.5cmProvenance:Provenance: St. Leonards - Mayfield Chapel, Mayfield, Sussex, England.Note: Note: The remains of a medieval palace belonging to the Archbishops of Canterbury was converted into a school, Mayfield School of the Holy Child, by Edward Welby Pugin in 1863-6. This section of a needlework rug originally ran the entire length of the Chapel. Due to the sheer scale of the work, the rug was constructed in small, panelled sections and later stitched together to form the carpet. Hand-stitched by the sisters of Mayfield Chapel, the carpet was produced for Mother Cornelia Connelly, founder of the Society of the Holy Child Jesus. As in other projects, E.W. Pugin continued to use the decorative designs of his father of which this may be one.

Phillipps, Torquay; W.A. Foyle, Beeleigh Abbey (bookplate).The text begins with the foundation charter by Robert de Beaumont (1104-1168), second earl of Leicester, and the first 13 folios in the modern foliation are occupied by the full texts of 34 donations and royal and episcopal confirmations, including final concords levied in the honor courts of Sayer de Quincy (d1219), earl of Winchester, and his son Roger de Quincy in 1252-53. Folios 13-17 in the modern foliation contain summaries of 89 gifts, four of which are English translations from what must have been Latin originals. Many charters are accompanied by marginal comments of circa 1540.Elements of two further cartularies are at British Library, MS Lansdowne 415; most of that cartulary and an abstract of the present one are printed in John Nichols, The History and Antiquities of the County of Leicester 3 (2) (1804), pp. 805-30, 834-8. This volume is described in GRC Davis (ed., revised by Claire Breay, Julian Harrison and David M. Smith). Medieval cartularies of Great Britain and Ireland (London: British Library, 2010) Item 432.'Robert [Robert de Beaumont], second earl of Leicester (1104–1168), magnate and justiciar, was perhaps the most distinguished aristocrat of his day, educated to a high standard and a consummate politician and man of action. The curia regis seems to have been the place where he was happiest. He was a founder of two abbeys—Garendon (1133), a foundation which shows him to have been one of the earliest patrons of the Cistercian order in England, and Leicester (1138–9)—and of several hospitals and priories. His abbey foundations were, however, economical, employing the lands of other people, as at Garendon, or, in the case of Leicester, lands already given by his father to the church.' (ODNB)'Garendon Abbey, a Cistercian house, was founded in 1133 by Robert, Earl of Leicester. It was in all probability a daughter house of Waverley, the earliest Cistercian monastery to be established in England. The founder endowed the abbey with 5 carucates and 3 virgates of land at Garendon, a burgage tenement at Leicester, and other lands at Dishley, Shepshed, and Ringolthorp. During the 12th century various benefactors granted to the abbey lands at Eastwell, Ibstock, Welby, Burton on the Wolds, and Stanton under Bardon in Leicestershire, at Costock in Nottinghamshire and at Heathcote in Derbyshire. The wild country of Charnwood Forest, in which Garendon lay, gave the monks opportunities for agricultural development of the type accomplished by many other Cistercian houses. Before the end of the 12th century granges had been established in the vicinity of the abbey at Garendon itself, Stanton, Dishley, and Ibstock, and farther afield at Burton on the Wolds, Ringolthorp, Goadby, and Welby in eastern Leicestershire, the Peak and at Costock and Rempstone in Nottinghamshire. The abbey seems to have carried on sheep farming on a considerable scale; in 1225 the abbot obtained permission to export wool to Flanders or elsewhere, and there are references to sheep-folds at the granges. In 1341 the abbey was granted the royal chapel or hermitage of Cripplegate, at London, and in 1343 had licence to acquire four messuages in London. The advowson of Dishley was obtained in 1458, and the church was appropriated in the same year.Two daughter houses were founded from Garendon—Bordesley (1138) and Bittlesden (1147). There are indications, however, that in the late 12th century the Cistercians of Garendon failed to live up to the highest standards of their Order. One of the abbots, Geoffrey, seems to have been a married man, and one of the monks is said to have become a Jew. The resignation of Abbot William in 1195 was perhaps due to the displeasure of the general chapter of the Order at the Garendon lay brothers’ habit of drinking beer. A serious incident occurred in 1196, when the new abbot, Reynold, was attacked in the infirmary, and gravely wounded, by a lay brother. In consequence the general chapter of Citeaux ordered all the abbey's lay brothers to be dispersed. The command was not carried out at once, and in 1197 the abbots of two other Cistercian houses were instructed to proceed to Garendon and enforce the will of the general chapter. The abbey continued to contain lay brothers after this incident. In 1219 the conventual church was dedicated by the Bishop of St Asaph. At the end of the 13th century the finances of the house seem to have been in an unsound condition; in 1295 the king, at the request of the abbot and convent, appointed a special keeper to apply the revenues of the abbey to the relief of its debts, providing reasonable maintenance for the abbot and monks meanwhile, and two years later the abbot acknowledged that the house owed debts totalling £160. The depredations of a powerful neighbour, John Cornyn, Earl of Buchan, may have contributed to the abbey's difficulties at this period.'
