[edit]DescriptionHeraldry EltonHall & EltonChurch Huntingdonshire Visible1613.png |
1613 drawings of heraldry seen in stained glass windows in Elton Hall and in stained glass windows and on stone monuments in Elton Church, Huntingdonshire. Mostly relating to the Sapcote family of Elton Hall. Seen and drawn in 1613 by the heralds conducting the Heraldic Visitation of Huntingdonshire in 1613. See pedigree of Sapcote in Ellis, Sir Henry, ed. (1849). The Visitation of the County of Huntingdon, under the authority of William Camden, Clarenceux King of Arms, by his deputy, Nicholas Charles, Lancaster Herald, A.D. 1613. Camden Society, 1st ser. 43. London: Camden Society, p.12[1]. Text from: 'Parishes: Elton', in A History of the County of Huntingdon: Volume 3, ed. William Page, Granville Proby and S Inskip Ladds (London, 1936), pp. 154-166 http://www.british-history.ac.uk/vch/hunts/vol3/pp154-166 : It seems probable that Sir Richard Sapcote (d. 1477) was the first builder of Elton Hall. Presumably he built the house as three sides of a quadrangle with the hall on the north-west, the private apartments south-west and the kitchens north-east. On the south-east side of the courtyard stood the gateway tower, but the rest of this side was apparently inclosed only with fence walls. To this house, at a slightly later date, a large chapel was added at the south corner by Sir John Sapcote (d. 1501) and his wife Lady Elizabeth. It is described as being adorned with beautiful painted glass windows, the arms in which were recorded by the herald in 1613. This house was surrounded by a moat, now long since filled up, indications of which, 13 feet deep, were found in 1894. Robert Sapcote, who died 4 January 1600/1, was probably the last of his family to live here, and in 1617 the property was sold, finally coming into the possession of Sir Thomas Proby.
