Unidad documental simple 7 - Photograph of stone plaque on rear of Grange

B+w photograph

This stone plaque is a copy, made by the Beckett family, of an earlier one originally erected by Benjamin Wade on his Grange rebuild of 1626. The lines echo an inscription at Bemerton Parsonage by the Poet George Herbert. Although these lines were not made popular until the 1630s after Herbert's death which suggests that the inscription was a later addition to Wade's 1626 mansion.

A crease runs along the bottom of this print.
