ADDINGHAM a Description;

ADDINGHAM PARISH contains the four townships of Gamblesby, Glassonby, Hunsonby with Winskill, and Little Salkeld. It extends about six miles in length from E to W and two and a half in breadth from N to S; is bounded on the east by HartsideFel l, on the west by the river Eden, on the north by Kirkoswald, and on the south by Melmerby and Langwathby parishes. The soil is generally fertile, and in a high state of cultivation. On Finch Fell is a bed of fire stone, of superior quality.It has no village of its own name, the church being situated in the township and manor of Glassonby.

GAMBLESBY is a neat and well-built village, pleasantly situated ten miles NE of Penrith, near to Hartside Fell. It contains about 320 residents. Here is an Independent, and also a Wesleyan chapel. UNTHANK is a hamlet in this township.

GLASSONBY is an irregularly built village, situated on an eminence about half a mile N of the parish church, two miles SE of Kirkoswald, and eight miles NE by N of Penrith. It contains about 170 inhabitants. The manors of Glassonby andGamblesb y were formerly united in one seniority, which was given by Henry I to Hildred, to be holden by the payment of 2s carnage. It afterwards passed successively through the families of Ireby, Lascelles, Seaton, Latimer, Nevill, Dacre andMusgrave, and is now the property of the Duke of Devonshire.

The Church dedicated to Saint Michael is a vicarage in the patronage of the dean and chapter of Carlisle. It was an appendage to the manor till about the year 1245, when Christian, widow of Thos. Lascelles, granted it to the Priory ofCarlisle; and Bishop Irton confirmed the appropriation, with the chapel of Little Salkeld, to the prior and convent, in 1282, ordaining that they should make sufficient provision for the cure. About the year 1678, the dean and chapter granted alease of the tithes of Little Salkeld in augmentation of the vicarage which is valued in the king's books at 9 pounds 4 shillings and 7 pence. It was held from 1792 till 1805, amongst other livings, by the eminent writer Dr. Paley. The Revd. WmSharpe, B.A. is the present vicar.

MAUGHAMBY is a hamlet in Glassonby township, seven miles NE of Penrith. Lieut. Col. Lacy is the principal land owner. Here is a Free School, founded in the year 1634, by the Rev. Edward Mayplett, prebendary of Carlisle and vicar of thisparish, who endowed it with 80 acres of land adjoining, now let for about 80 pounds a year. for which the school is free to all the children of the parish who wish to avail themselves of the charity, and are admitted as soon as they havelearned the alpha bet.

HUNSONBY village forms a join township with Winskill, and is situated six miles NE of Penrith. It contains about 150 souls. Here is a Methodist chapel erected some years ago. In 1726, Joseph Hutchinson, yeoman, endowed a school here, with 50ac res of land, at Gawtree, for the education of all the poor children of Hunsonby and Winskill, and he left an estate at the latter place, consisting of about 31 acres (with 10 pounds) to the poor of Hunsonby quarter. The school estate is nowlet for 53 pounds per annum, by the churchwarden and overseer of the township, who are the trustees for the time being, both of this and the poor's land, which lets for 65 pounds a year.

WINSKILL is a small village and joint township with Hunsonby, six miles NE by E of Penrith. ROBERBY is a hamlet in this township, six and a half miles NE of Penrith.

SALKELD (LITTLE) is a scattered village near the Eden, one mile south of Addingham Church, and six miles NE of Penrith. It contains about 110 inhabitants. The township and manor of Salkeld, which includes Hunsonby township, was granted byWalte r, a Norman, in the reign of William Rufus, to the priory of Saint Mary, Carlisle; and this grant was confirmed by Edward I in 1292. After the dissolution of the religious houses, it was given, with other estates, to the dean and chapterof Carlisl e who are its present lords. There was anciently a a chapel or church at Salkeld, which having been polluted by the shedding of blood in 1360, and the parish church being 'at great distance' the vicar celebrated the holy offices inhis own house ti ll the interdict was taken off the chapel, which tradition says, was seated in a village called Addingham, on the east bank of the river. Human bones, crosses and other relics have been found here, and pieces of cemented stonework, said to be part of the church, have been seen in the bed of the river. About half a mile south of the church of Addingham in this township, is the Druid's temple, commonly called 'Long Meg and her Daughters'. Between these remains ofBritish antiquity and the Ede n, is Salkeld Hall, originally the residence of the ancient family of Salkeld, one of whom, Mr. Geo. Salkeld is stated to have been obliged to part with the seat of his ancestors during the civil wars, for atrifling consideration. Before the year 1688, it became the property of the family of Smallwood, and was purchased in 1790 by the late Lieut. Col. Lacy, who added a new front to it, and formed on the romantic banks of the Eden, four cavescalled the 'Grotto' excavated out of solid rock, similar to those at Corby Castle. He sold the mansion in 1836 to Robert Hodgson, Esq. the present proprietor, who has made great improvements.
