Feb. 1861, from portions of the chapelries of St. Thomas, Brampton,

a building with Norman and Perpendicular features, after being nearly
demolished by a Protestant mob and losing all its monuments, in the
reign of William III. was desecrated and used as a cowhouse : it
is now utterly desolate, though occasionally used as a place of interment
by the Eyre family, to whom it belongs. The register dates from the
year 1857. The living was declared a rectory 11 June, 1867, gross
