St. Peters Lane, Canterbury

~ ST. PETER'S LANE ~

CANTERBURY

St. Peter

Pre-1874 there were less houses on the West Side of the street due to large garden/nursery of William Masters that used to be here

Clearance of houses 46-66 St. Peter's Lane, 63-79 St. Peter's Lane

1909 Flooding of the River Stour showing St. Peter's Lane with the Abbot's Mill in the background. The Mill burnt down October 17th, 1933. These old houses are gone now, with new ones in their place. The wall still stands.

*William WANSTALL born in St. Peter's Lane c. 1859

"A person unknown left the yearly rent of a piece of land in St. Peter's Lane, amounting to 1£, to be divided among the poor of this parish annually." 1838D

"Henry SWORDER, in 1504, left three houses in St. Peter's Lane, to be enjoyed rent free by three poor people of the parish. These were sold in 1806 for 62£ 12s., which was conveyed to the churchwardens to be invested in the funds. This was never done; and, after the death of one of the churchwardens, John CHANDLER, his widow, in 1828, having an account of £34 7s. 5d. with the churchwardens then in office, paid them the balance of 28£ 4s. 7d., which was applied towards the expenses of a new churchyard. Since then the sum of 2£ 9s. has been distributed, as interest of the original sum, annually among the poor of the parish." 1838D

"We shall have "Venice in Canterbury" if the rain continues. In St. Peter's Lane, on Thursday (23rd), all that was wanted was the city barge and the bridge that was washed away at Westgate, and the illusion would have been perfect." The Meteorological Magazine 1894

Grant by John WILLIS late of Canterbury to Thomas Buyssh' of the same of a tenement with garden in the parish of St. Peter, Canterbury, in a place called 'Seyntpetrislane*,' which he had by gift of Ellis Curteys, deceased. Witnesses:—William Byllyngton and William atte Wode, bailiffs of Canterbury, and others (named). 25 January, 17 Henry VI. - (C. 4625)
From: 'Deeds: C.4601 - C.4700', A Descriptive Catalogue of Ancient Deeds: Volume 6 (1915), pp. 105-119, BHO

*likely is St. Peter's Lane

In St. Peter's Lane, near the church, was found at eight feet deep a mortarium nearly entire, an amphora, and other Roman pottery. 1877

At Canterbury, the heavy rains which fell during the latter part of the last week have inundated the vale of the Stour, both above and below that city, and the water has risen in its vicinity to the ground floors of many of the houses adjoining the banks in North Lane, St. Peter's Lane, &c. Below Canterbury the valley to Starr had the appearance of a lake, and the adjacent levels of St. Nicholas, Minster, and Monkton, were so completely inundated as to give the idea of an estuary, and reduce Thanet literally to an island. The waters has since subsided. TGM, 1810
