THat which beareth this name, is onely certain grounds lying within Wedgnok-park, where antiently g stood a Chapel, which was of the Earl of Warwick's patronage h. How long it is since that Chapel fell to ruine, is uncertain; but in 16 H. 7. the K. by his Letters Pat. dated 18 Mar∣tii, reciting, that it had been down to the ground of a long time; and that the place where it stood, with the Chapel-yard, had also been, and then was imployed to prophane uses: As also, that there were no Inhabitants there which should re∣build it; to the intent that the same place, for∣merly so consecrated, might thenceforth be con∣verted to pious uses, bestowed i it on the Dean and Chapter of the Collegiat-Church in Warwick, and their successors, together with xl s. yearly rent thereto belonging, formerly given to the said Chapel in recompence of the glebe pertaining thereto, which the Earls of Warwick had ob∣tained in exchange for the said xl s. rent. But the Village whereunto this Chapel did belong (many years since depopulated k) was called l Rykmers∣bery. [See more thereof in Beausall.]
