Extract from “The Horfield and Bishopston Record”

February 4th, 1911 An Old Bristol Directory

“By special arrangement with Mr. W.J. Jackson, who has been at considerable pains in the matter, we are about to present our readers with an interesting transcription of the oldest Bristol Directory, dated 1775, and published by Sketchley. The introductory notes are given this week. Our readers will no doubt take pleasure in watching the streets as they appear, and noting the great changes that have occurred. Some may even by this means be able to locate where their ancestors resided in the 18th century. We shall be glad to hear from any readers who can throw any further light on any of the names or facts contained in the directory. Among the literary curiosities of Bristol, perhaps one of the greatest interest is the scarce first Bristol Directory, published in 1775. It was compiled by James Sketchley, “broker, auctioneer, appraiser and printer”, whose business premises were at 27 Small Street. The little volume, which contains as a frontispiece, a view of the “Front of ye Exchange”, consists (in addition to the title page, preface and advertisment) of 126 pages, those from 1 to 110 being occupied by a roughly alphabeted list of Bristol’s inhabitants arranged by their names. This list has now for the first time been re-arranged to form a street directory - the names of the inhabitants appearing under the streets wherein they resided. It might be mentioned here that we have no directory of Bristol arranged by streets until far into the nineteenth century. The work as now edited is a practical illustration of the extent and condition of Bristol in 1775, and shows exactly which streets were then in existence. During the last 135 years many changes have, of course, occurred, hundreds of new streets have sprung up, and old streets have been demolished for the construction of new ones. For instance, Hallier’s Lane then occupied the site of Nelson Street; Limekiln Lane that of St. George’s Road; while the Butts, Temple Cross, Steep Street and other thoroughfares have been swept away. A perusal of the directory will also show some curious changes in the names of existing streets: Tankard’s Close was then Tinker’s Close; the old Aldersgate Lane had become Aldridge Key Lane, it since having degenerated into Aldersquay Lane (now demolished); while Queen Street has become Christmas Steps. A strange circumstance relating to the streets in connection with Redlodge Street (Trenchard Street to Park Row). Mr. Latimer states (Annals, 18th cent., p:456) that this street was first laid out in 1784, but we now find that it was in existence and occupied by at least fifteen persons nine years earlier. One result of this compilation should be the more positive identification of the homes of famous inhabitants, since the numbering of the houses was carried out by Sketchley on a uniform plan. Previous to the issue of the first directory, the houses were not universally numbered, some being distinguished by signs only, but the compiler adopted the system of beginning the numbers in every street at the end nearest the Exchange, starting at the left-hand side. He says in the Preface: “if a first or last Number is wanted, it will be found at that end nearest the Exchange, if a middle Number, at the other end of the Street”. A curious side-light is thrown on the social history of the 18th century by the occupations of the persons included in this directory. In spite of the extent of its shipping and trade, the city was served by one postman only, that individual in 1775 being James Barton, who resided at 6 Chapel Row, where he augmented his income by letting apartments. The occupations of hour-glass maker, night-constable, bleeder, barber-surgeon, pattern-maker, peruke-maker, post-chaise man, and many others reminiscent of past times are also included. The present arrangement of the inhabitants under streets shows for the first time that there was no East and West ends in Bristol in the modern sense, for although Park Street and the large Squares were occupied almost exclusively by the professional classes and merchants, the majority of streets

displayed more catholicity; aldermen, merchants and labourers being sometimes found residing in the same street. By way of illustration one might turn to Charles Street, St. James’, where at No.1 the City Chamberlain, Richard Hawkswell, resided, and at No.3 the name of Charles Wesley, the evangelist, appears, while a surgeon, a “gentleman”, a shoemaker, a stone-cutter, and several carpenters also appear as neighbours. Although Charles Wesley’s name is mentioned as a resident of Charles Street, we know that he had removed from Bristol before this date, and the conclusion is drawn that some years must have been occupied in collecting the names for the directory. Other well-known names contained in the volume include that of Edmund Burke, who was one of the Members for Bristol in 1775. The boarding school of the Misses More at 10 Park Street, where Burke had been a frequent visitor during the preceding year, is also mentioned; William Barrett, surgeon and historian, appears at 41 St. Augustine’s Back; the partners Burgum and Catcott, pewterers and dupes of Chatterton, at 2 Bridge Foot. The father of Matthew Wasbrough, inventor of the fly-wheel or rotative motion of the steam-engine, appears here at 4 Narrow Wine Street, although No.3 is the house generally associated with his name. Another inventor resided at 126 Redcliffe Street - William Watts, who as the result of a dream, it is said, patented a new process for the manufacture of shot. The famous Bristol China Works of Richard Champion we find at 15 Castle Green, and Nicholas Pocock, who acquired distinction as a painter of naval engagements, is mentioned at 41 Prince’s Street as “Captain of the Minerva”. The name of Robert Southey’s father appears at 11 (afterwards re-numbered 9) Wine Street, and the future poet-laureate was born at that address during the year previous to the publication of the directory. At 25 in the same street is recorded Martha Powell’s school, where little Robert became a pupil at the age of three. The old Library in King Street to which Southey afterwards became a subscriber is not mentioned in this part of the directory, but the name of the librarian at that time, the Rev. Thomas Johnes, is given. The Library has been removed from King Street within recent years, but it may be of interest to note that its old next-door neighbour, Mr. Ford (or, rather, his descendant), still occupies the same premises as in 1775, ie King Street Hall, between the old Library building and the licensed house, now the Bunch of Grapes. The ancestor of Vincent Stuckey Lean, the donor of the new Reference Library, appears also - John Lean, linen factor, at 33 Wine Street. Several names well-known at the present time are duplicated in the directory of 1775, amongst them being Jeremiah Osborne, attorney, at 4 Redcliff Parade; while Fry and Vaughan, chocolate-makers appear at 8 Narrow Wine Street; and Thos. Tyndal resided at the Fort, which is occupied today by Miss Tyndall. In the 110 pages dealt with, about 228 streets are mentioned, and as now arranged contain altogether 4,086 items. Of this number the following streets furnish the largest number of entries: Temple Street heads the list with 125 entries, Redcliff Street follows with 124, then Thomas Street with 107, the fourth is the “Key” with 90 entries, Castle Street contains 85 and Stokes Croft 82 entries”. Abbreviations: M.C. stands for Master in Chancery; N.P. for Notary Public; Mer. for Merchant; L. for

Lodgings to let; B. for Boarding; L.B. for Lodging and Boarding.

On the opposite side was at one time Sir Thomas Day’s “great house”, where Queen Anne was entertained. Close by on Bristol Bridge, Tobias Matthew, Archbishop of York, was born in 1546.

It derives its name from St. Mary-le-port Church, so called from there having once been an embankment or wharf descending from the vicinity of the church to the River Avon.

Jones, William, victualler, Star Quay (see Key) Queen Square Houses were first built here during 1700 to 1726. It received its name from the visit of Queen Anne to the city while the Square was in course of construction. Amongst the associations of he past connected with the Square may be mentioned the following:- David Hume, the historian, was a clerk in a merchant’s office here, Capt. Woodes Rogers, the privateering captain who discovered Alexander Selkirk (Robinson Crusoe), lived at No.19. Burke lodged in the Square in 1774, at the house of Mr. Joseph Smith, mentioned below. J.F. Weare (No.21) was elected Mayor in 1794, but declined to serve. The name Pellican, at No.51, is probably a mis-print for Peloquin, the testatrix of £19,000 to the Corporation for charitable purposes. It was the principal theatre of the Riots of 1831. An equestrian statue of William III stands in the centre of the Square. 1. Custom House 2. Eames, John 3. Lovell, Rob., West India merchant 4.

Recliff Street The finest parish church in England, St. Mary Redcliff, is in this street. The name is derived from the red sandy rock or cliff upon which it is built. Canynge’s house and other interesting relics of domestic architecture are contained here. The name of William Watts, of patent shot fame will be noticed at 126 below. The discovery that shot could be made by means of dropping lead from a height arose, it is said, from a dream of the wife of Wm. Watts. The patent was afterwards sold for £10,000. No.126 is also said to be the site of the birthplace of Richard Ricart, calendar and chauntry priest, and in 1479 Town Clerk of Bristol. The Red Lion Inn mentioned at No.7 below was an ancient hostelry, with a courtyard and galleries in the style of the 14th or 15th century.

On the site of the Gas Co.’s Offices once stood Hooper’s Hall, afterwards Lady Huntingdon’s Chapel, and later a meeting place for the Salvation Army. During the latter part of the 18th century it served also as a theatre.

The house at No.20, belonging to Sir Abraham Elton, was in 1778 suggested as a Mansion House for Bristol. The sum for its purchase was to have been £1,500, but the negotiations fell through, and Sir Abraham received £300 for compensation. 1. Gordon, Robert, Esq., West India merchant 2. Longdon, Sexa 3.

The name is a corruption of Wynch Street, a pillory having stood at one time near the centre of the street. Yeoman and Boucher were here executed for plotting to deliver the city to Prince Rupert. They were hanged nearly opposite the door of Yeoman’s dwelling, which was the house west of the narrow passage to the Grand Hotel restaurant. The old Guard House Passage is still a right of way to Martleport Street, and the “Dutch” House, at the corner of High Street and Wine Street, recently restored, is one of the curiosities of Bristol. Robert Southey was born in this street, and his father’s name aooears at No.11 below, while at No.25 appears the name of Martha Powell, his much disliked school-marm. The name of Thomas Cadell, the eminent bookseller, will be seen at No.8, and John Lean, linen factor, whose name appears at No.33, was the ancestor of Vincent Stuckey Lean, the munificent donor of £50,000 to the Public Libraries of this city. 1.
