"Before we leave Gowbarrow Park, (for the bounds of which see the Plan,) it may not be amiss to mention some particulars of its history. This Park was one of the forests proclaimed by William Rufus, and is now the property of the Right Honourable Charles Howard, Earl of Surrey, of whose illustrious family and titles I shall inform my readers more at large hereafter." "The lower part of Gowbarrow was formerly meer'd out of the tenants of the manor of Water-Millock, who were to have as much of the produce as they could take with scythe, together with hay bounds, fern bounds, green hue, &c. These they lost in a law-suit with the lord, into which they were inadvertently drawn; for the whole of the tenants of the barony of Graystock quarrelling with their lord about some of their privileges, instituted a joint suit against him: in this complaint, it was set forth, that they had all enjoyed these privileges time out of mind, (which in fact none but the tenants of Water-Millock ever possessed.) The Attorney having made the complaint general, the whole were nonsuited, and in consequence thereof the tenants of Water-Millock lost their undoubted rights." "Another custom, (likewise lost,) was, that the Bailiff should keep dogs for the hunting and destroying of foxes and other vermin which infest this neighbourhood, and for which he received 40 quarts of tolerable, (though not the best) oats, from every tenement, under the title of Forester's Corn. At last the Bailiff refused to keep the dogs, and the tenants upon this refused to pay the corn: in consequence of these disputes the agent for the lord came in person and demanded it, when some of the tenants instantly paid it; but others, alleging that the corn was merely an hire paid to the Bailiff for destroying noxious vermin, positively refused, and during their lives paid none: Their heirs, however, either in order to renew their leases upon easier terms, or by some other persuasions, consented to pay it, (one single tenement excepted,) and the lord now receives it." "We may naturally suppose, that in consequence of no dogs being kept, the vermin would multiply very fast: this they did to that degree, that one man, out of thirty-two lambs lost fourteen, and many others suffered proportional losses. Upon these repeated damages, the inhabitants called a vestry meeting, that they might consult for immediate remedying this evil. Some were of opinion, that an action should be brought against the lord to compel him to keep the hounds, as he received the corn paid for that purpose: but the more general opinion was, that since damages were every night done, and immediate relief must be had, it was better to hire men to destroy the vermin, than risque the precarious issue of a tedious and expensive suit at law. They thereupon raised a sum by way of cess for that purpose, and appointed the following rewards, (which are still paid) for the destruction of these noxious animals." |
|||||||||||||
source data:- | goto source Page 30:- "They likewise procured the swiftest fox-hounds from the mountainous environs of Keswick, &c.; skilful sportsmen were also hired to attend with guns, and every other engine, for the destruction of these annoyers. Witsun-week, A.D. 1759, was fixed upon for the attack, when I myself was an eye-witness to the death of twelve foxes within the week. The sum-total of vermin destroyed, were fifteen foxes, seven badgers, twelve wild-cats, and nine martens, (called here, by way of distinction, Clean Marts;) besides a prodigious number of foul-marts, eagles, ravens, gleads, &c. The wiles and policy of the foxes were truly astonishing; such as jumping from the rocks upon trees covered with ivy, where they would sometimes conceal themselves, and defeat their pursuers; at other times they run just within the edge of Ullswater, so that no scent remained; and many other instances of sagacity, which, were I disposed to trespass upon the patience of the reader, I could relate. Gowbarrow Park contains about 2000 acres of ground, and is admirably well adapted for the preservation of deer, of which there are six or seven hundred; they divide themselves into herds, and never intermix unless when alarmed. As to the names by which they are at different ages distinguished, I must refer my reader to that part of the appendix wherein I propose to treat of the natural history of this country."

Dorothy Wordsworth wrote in her journal, 15 April 1802:- |
|||||||||||||
"When we were in the woods beyond Gowbarrow Park we saw a few daffodils close to the
water side. We fancied that the lake had floated the seeds ashore and that the little
colony had so sprung up. But as we went along ther were more and yet more; and, at
last, under the boughs of the trees, we saw that there was a long belt of them along
the shore, about the breadth of a country turnpike road. I never saw daffodils so
beautiful. They grew among the mossy stones about and about them; some rested their
heads upon these stones as on a pillow for weariness; and the rest tossed and reeled
and danced, and seemed as if they verily laughed with the wind, that blew upon them
over tha lake; they looked so gay, ever glancing, ever changing. The wind blew directly
over the lake to them. There was here and there a little knot, and a few stragglers
a few yards higher up; but they were so few as not to disturb the simplicity, unity,
and life of that one busy highway. ..." |
