R.D. & C
I was given to
understand by
Them — 1. who
Sir
Upon attending the Dean & Chapter of Westminster hold this day,
I understood what I had occasion to observe of the disposition
of that body from conversation for they declined
making a ate as from the Body committing any thing to writing is as follows.
1. There is a disposition to trial, but the first
condition mentioned, by the Bishopand that as a condition sine
qua non, the is that whatever allowance of
ground may be made, shall be made over, not
in fee, but only for the years — in length of
time objected to — 1000 years acceded to — a
condition to which on my own part to this I see no
objection —
Other conditions were
I found a disposition to treat, on some such conditions
as the following —
1. That a part of Tothill Fields be allotted to the Parish or
United Parishes, whereon to build a Poor House.
2. That another part be allotted to the Dean
and Chapter, for a Cricket Ground for the Westminster
Scholars.
3. That a thirdanother part be allotted to the Dean &
Chapter and Parish or Parishes jointly or severally to
be improved by for their mutual conscious benefit by
building or otherwise.
By building or
otherwise
4. That the remaining part remainder only &
that as small as possible, might be hand out to
the Crown, suppose for 1000 years, for the purpose of the Penitentiary
House. A wish pretty generally expressed was
to confine the grant to the very site of the Building
itself, with no greater quantity of ground then
would be contained between that and the surrounding
Wall — [Diameter to the principal building 18 feet. Space
occupied by the Building and Year, a square of 500 foot a side — content 6 Acres.] Whether
