Full Description

{1} Brass rubbing of Agnes, wife of Cuthbert Ogle (1616).

{8} A quarter of the houses that existed in 1727 in the Northamptonshire village of Potterspury survive today. This has been demonstrated from documentary evidence and buildings survey work. The starting point is a map of 1727, which shows each building in detail in respect of the number of storeys and bays and the positions of windows, doors and chimneys. The house sketches are compared with the existing surviving houses and show strong agreement on detail. Supplementing the map with other contemporary documents, a complete picture of the 1727 village has been reconstructed. Following this picture through the later documentary sources and examining the nature of surviving and lost buildings, has enabled a full history of each house to be established. For the period 1727 to 1910 the paper identifies the main periods of loss, the factors leading to loss and the nature of new and replacement houses.
