CANTERBURY

St. George the Martyr

Destroyed in the bombing of 1942

"...in the past there has been much uncertainty as to the exact position of the mound called in the records of the city 'Little Dungeon Hill'. We now learn that it lay between St. George's Gate and Riding Gate - apparently where St. George's Terrace now stands" Woodruffs List

Houses were built in St. George's Terrace between 1822 and 1826. George NEAME, built no. 1 - 6. It is likely that William WHITE built no. 22.

Obituary, August 2nd, 1825 - At her house, St. George's terrace, Canterbury, in her 62nd year, Anna Maria Duncombe, only surviving daughter of Joseph Highmore esq. well known to the world, not only by his pencil, but by his other extensive knowledge, and literary pursuits. She had suffered a painful and lingering illness, which encreased towards the time of her decease, and was an exemplary instance, throughout her life, of filial regards and veneration for her parents. Interesting memoirs of both, and also of her grandfather the Rev. Wm. Duncombe, may be seen in vol. viii. of Nichol's Literary Anecdotes.

*Mr. Duncombe's widow died, at an advanced age, October 28th, 1812. She inherited much of her Father's taste for the Fine Arts, and of his genius for letters, softened by a refined judgment and feminine delicacy. Her union with Mr. Duncombe tended to expand her natural talents and to exemplify her education; which enabled her justly to venerate the eminent circle in which she was born to shine - Young, Harris, Hawkesworth, Richardson, Isaac Hawkins Browne, Chapone, Carter, and others equally dear to Literature. Mr. Duncombe's preferment at and near Canterbury led them to fix their residence there, where her Father soon after joined them, and continued with them until his death. After the decease of Mr. Duncombe, she adopted a more retired life, accompanied by her only surviving daughter*; and although her advancing years cast their autumnal tints over her once brilliant mind, yet they sufficiently marked the beauty of the days that had passed, and rendered perhaps more eminent the "light that now shines more and more perfect day." She has not left any literary work to perpetuate her fame; but her story of "Fidelia and Honoria" in the Adventurer, and some small contributions in the Poetical Calendar, and Nichols's Poems, and a few transient effusions of genius that never met the public eye, principally in the Gentlemen's Magazine, have assisted to cheer her friends with the remembrance of her with respect and delight. She was interred in the church of St. Mary Breadman, in the same vault with her husband, whose tomb is thus inscribed:

"The Rev. John Duncombe, M.A. Rector of this Parish, with that of St. Andrew annexed, Vicar of Herne, and one of the Six Preachers in the Cathedral. Ob. Jan 19, 1786, aet. 56"

*one daughter and two sons died as infants viz. Sarah-Elizabeth, October 17, 1764, William February 26, 1767 and John February 13, 1769.

In 1763 he married a daughter of Mr. Highmore, the painter. (John Duncombe)

To the Gentlemen's Magazine Mr. Highmore was almost a monthly contributor; as his numerous and valuable communications on various subjects under the signature of A. H. abundantly testify. Mr. Highmore traced his ancestry through several centuries on the paternal side, wherein the church, the army, the medical profession, and the private gentleman, embrace the whole list of his progenitors, up to several in the 15th century, who possessed and resided upon a large estate at Harbybrow in Cumberland, consisting of seven manors and mansion houses, which were afterwards disposed of to a member of the Blencowe family, by Abraham Highmore, a Colonel in the service of Charles the First, in order to defray the charges of raising, equipping, and maintaining a volunteer corps of 1000 men, in the cause of that unfortunate, obstinate, and ill-advised monarch. And it may perhaps here be mentioned, that among those of more recent date, he numbers the late Mrs. Duncombe of Canterbury (his aunt) a name "not unknown to fame," of whom, as well as of her amiable and estimable husband, the Rev. John Duncombe, he furnished memoirs to the Gentlemen's Magazine; and that he was a grandson of Mr. Joseph Highmore, an artist of celebrity in the reign of George the Second, and pupil of the celebrated Godfrey Kneller, whose style he so successfully acquired as to have been frequently denominated "the rising Kneller," and more particularly in some lines addressed to him by Mr. John Bunce, of Trinity Hall, Cambridge, and published in the Whitehall Evening Post of August 12 to 15, 1727. Mr. Joseph Highmore is also mentioned in Walpole's Anecdotes, vol. iv. p. 105., and more at length in the Gentlemen's Magazine for April 1780, where there is a portrait of him......

Joseph Highmore, a portrait and historical painter of some reputation in his day, was born in London in 1692. he was the nephew of Highmore, Serjeant-painter to William III., and was originally bred to the law, but having a decided disposition for painting, he gave up the law and became a pupil of Sir Godfrey Kneller, in whose style he painted. He painted several pictures from the works of Richardson the novelist, but his chief works are taken from the Scriptures. He died at Canterbury in 1780, in the house of his daughter, who was married to one of the prebendaries of that city, and he was buried in the Cathedral.

"We know there was a lesser mound. It was called the "Little Dunghill," and stood near the Terrace and the present Gravel Lane, almost on a line dividing the parishes of St. George and St. Mary Bredin. From an abstract of an ancient deed, dated 6th December, 1757, in the possession of Mr. FRYER, the present owner of the Property, I find it was situated adjoining the house of a Mr. Tassell. It is alluded to afterwards in 1782 as being on the property of Mr. William LONG, one of the Alderman of the city. The house, now No. 21, in Saint George's Terrace, is in the parish of Saint Mary Bredin. The house adjoining, No. 20 is in Saint George's Parish. The mound stood on the site of these two houses, next to a lane called Sheepshank Lane, now Gravel Lane, extending to the brick wall next to the wall of the city. Mention is made in the said deed of there being a messuage upon it. We have no account when this lesser mound was levelled, probably, however, it was demolished when the houses abouve alluded to were built; now are we sure it was in existence at the date of the deed." cot

We now learn that it lay between St. George's Gate and Riding Gate - apparently where St. George's Terrace now stands" Woodruffs List Houses were built in St. George's Terrace between 1822 and 1826. George NEAME, built no. 1 - 6. It is likely that William WHITE built no. 22. 1843 map above showing St. George's Lane (below is St. George's Terrace) and the Cattle Market Obituary, August 2nd, 1825 - At her house, St. George's terrace, Canterbury, in her 62nd year, Anna Maria Duncombe, only surviving daughter of Joseph Highmore esq. well known to the world, not only by his pencil, but by his other extensive knowledge, and literary pursuits. She had suffered a painful and lingering illness, which encreased towards the time of her decease, and was an exemplary instance, throughout her life, of filial regards and veneration for her parents. Interesting memoirs of both, and also of her grandfather the Rev. Wm. Duncombe, may be seen in vol. viii. of Nichol's Literary Anecdotes. Mr. Duncombe's widow died, at an advanced age, October 28th, 1812. She inherited much of her Father's taste for the Fine Arts, and of his genius for letters, softened by a refined judgment and feminine delicacy. Her union with Mr. Duncombe tended to expand her natural talents and to exemplify her education; which enabled her justly to venerate the eminent circle in which she was born to shine - Young, Harris, Hawkesworth, Richardson, Isaac Hawkins Browne, Chapone, Carter, and others equally dear to Literature. Mr. Duncombe's preferment at and near Canterbury led them to fix their residence there, where her Father soon after joined them, and continued with them until his death. After the decease of Mr. Duncombe, she adopted a more retired life, accompanied by her only surviving daughter; and although her advancing years cast their autumnal tints over her once brilliant mind, yet they sufficiently marked the beauty of the days that had passed, and rendered perhaps more eminent the "light that now shines more and more perfect day." She has not left any literary work to perpetuate her fame; but her story of "Fidelia and Honoria" in the Adventurer, and some small contributions in the Poetical Calendar, and Nichols's Poems, and a few transient effusions of genius that never met the public eye, principally in the Gentlemen's Magazine, have assisted to cheer her friends with the remembrance of her with respect and delight. She was interred in the church of St. Mary Breadman, in the same vault with her husband, whose tomb is thus inscribed: "The Rev. John Duncombe, M.A. Rector of this Parish, with that of St. Andrew annexed, Vicar of Herne, and one of the Six Preachers in the Cathedral. Ob. Jan 19, 1786, aet. 56" one daughter and two sons died as infants viz. Sarah-Elizabeth, October 17, 1764, William February 26, 1767 and John February 13, 1769. In 1763 he married a daughter of Mr. Highmore, the painter. (John Duncombe)* To the Gentlemen's Magazine Mr. Highmore was almost a monthly contributor; as his numerous and valuable communications on various subjects under the signature of A. H. abundantly testify. Mr. Highmore traced his ancestry through several centuries on the paternal side, wherein the church, the army, the medical profession, and the private gentleman, embrace the whole list of his progenitors, up to several in the 15th century, who possessed and resided upon a large estate at Harbybrow in Cumberland, consisting of seven manors and mansion houses, which were afterwards disposed of to a member of the Blencowe family, by Abraham Highmore, a Colonel in the service of Charles the First, in order to defray the charges of raising, equipping, and maintaining a volunteer corps of 1000 men, in the cause of that unfortunate, obstinate, and ill-advised monarch. And it may perhaps here be mentioned, that among those of more recent date, he numbers the late Mrs. Duncombe of Canterbury (his aunt) a name "not unknown to fame," of whom, as well as of her amiable and estimable husband, the Rev. John Duncombe, he furnished memoirs to the Gentlemen's Magazine; and that he was a grandson of Mr. Joseph Highmore, an artist of celebrity in the reign of George the Second, and pupil of the celebrated Godfrey Kneller, whose style he so successfully acquired as to have been frequently denominated "the rising Kneller," and more particularly in some lines addressed to him by Mr. John Bunce, of Trinity Hall, Cambridge, and published in the Whitehall Evening Post of August 12 to 15, 1727. Mr. Joseph Highmore is also mentioned in Walpole's Anecdotes, vol. iv. p. 105., and more at length in the Gentlemen's Magazine for April 1780, where there is a portrait of him...... Joseph Highmore, a portrait and historical painter of some reputation in his day, was born in London in 1692. he was the nephew of Highmore, Serjeant-painter to William III., and was originally bred to the law, but having a decided disposition for painting, he gave up the law and became a pupil of Sir Godfrey Kneller, in whose style he painted. He painted several pictures from the works of Richardson the novelist, but his chief works are taken from the Scriptures. He died at Canterbury in 1780, in the house of his daughter, who was married to one of the prebendaries of that city, and he was buried in the Cathedral. Marriage, April 13, 1761, The Rev.

STONE, 20 St. George's Terrace No. 21 "We know there was a lesser mound. It was called the "Little Dunghill," and stood near the Terrace and the present Gravel Lane, almost on a line dividing the parishes of St. George and St. Mary Bredin. From an abstract of an ancient deed, dated 6th December, 1757, in the possession of Mr. FRYER, the present owner of the Property, I find it was situated adjoining the house of a Mr. Tassell. It is alluded to afterwards in 1782 as being on the property of Mr. William LONG, one of the Alderman of the city. The house, now No. 21, in Saint George's Terrace, is in the parish of Saint Mary Bredin. The house adjoining, No. 20 is in Saint George's Parish. The mound stood on the site of these two houses, next to a lane called Sheepshank Lane, now Gravel Lane, extending to the brick wall next to the wall of the city. Mention is made in the said deed of there being a messuage upon it. We have no account when this lesser mound was levelled, probably, however, it was demolished when the houses abouve alluded to were built; now are we sure it was in existence at the date of the deed." cot 1840 Mrs. Mary Anne Flood, 21 St. George's Terrace 1847 Miss Mary Ann Flood, 21 St. George's Terrace 1882 Miss Mary Hubbard, Nurse 1889 Charles John Court Jane E.
