SCOTNEY CASTLE.
BY EDWARD HUSSEY, OF SCO'l'NEY.
THE ancient Castle of Scotney was one of those small fortified
dwellings, which were not uncommon in the maritime counties of
Kent and Sussex. They seem to have been erected to resist the
sudden attack of lawless and turbulent neighbours, or marauders
from the coast, rather than £or defence against a siege by more
organized enemies. At Scotney, as at Bodiam Castle about twelve
miles distant, the moat is only separated by an embankment, a £ew
yards wide, from a river on so much lower a level, that a few men
with spades could, in a short space of time, drain all the water from
the moat. They would be protected, during the operation, by the
high banks of the stream, from any missiles which the defenders
0£ the castle might send forth.
It is situated on the borders of the parish of Lamberhurst,
the church 0£ which is in Kent, but much 0£ its land is in Sussex,
and it adjoins Goudhurst, in Kent. Tradition states that the site
of the castle is partly in Kent and partly in Sussex ; the little
river Bewl or Beaul (which now divides the counties) having
formerly :flowed through the site, now occupied by the castle and
its surrounding moat. This seems probable £),'om the appearance
of the ground ; £or the stream now runs parallel to the moat,
£or about 200 yards, and this is almost the only straight portion 0£
its very tortuous course. During some alterations made in 1863,
a row 0£ piles was discovered on each side 0£ the western embank•
ment 0£ the moat, where, from the lie 0£ the ground, it looked
likely that the river once :flowed through, thus rendering necessary
such a protection of the bank. Some years ago, when a servant
was drowned in the moat, there was grave doubt whether the
Sussex or the Kentish coroner should hold the inquest; and early
in this century a ·member of the family, having to prove which
county he was born in, found much difficulty in doing so.

PLAN OF THE RUINED CASTLE AT SCOTNEY, IN LAMBERHURST.
SCOTNEY C.A.STLE. 39
The origin 0£ the name 0£ Scotney seems to be veiled in some
obscurity. · Isaac Taylor, in his excellent book Worils anil Places
(p. 870), includes it in the names which are derived from the Saxon
word " ea" or " ey "=island ; and Philipott, in his History of Kent
(p. 209), mentions" Scotney, which bath borrowed that appellation
from its local situation and the overshooting of the water." But
Count Gabriel Ogilvy, author of Les Oonquerants il'A.1igleterre, in
some MS. notes relating to the pedigree of the Barons de Scoteni,
who possessed this Castle in the twelfth century, traces the family
of Scoteni or Escotigny to "Ecotigny, anciennement EscotignyHumeau,
Commune de Grandcourt, pres Foucarmont, Seine infre."
This baronial family about .A..D. 1200 possessed a demesne called
Scotney Court, in the parish of Lydde (now the property of All
Souls' College), and also lands at Cokerington in Lincolnshire.
By Charters relating to the Priory of Hastings, it appears
that Walter Fitz Lambert, who, at the time of the Domesday
Survey, held Crowhurst of the Count of Eu, was ancestor of
Walter and Peter de Scotenie, and that the arms of the latter on
his seal were, On a bend, within a bordure indented, three billets.
Lambert de Scotenie held this Castle during 1168-1195 ; but in
1259 his successor, Walter de Scoteni, was tried ll.nd banged, at
Winchester, £or administering poison to Richard, Earl of Gloucester,
and William de Clare, his brother, the latter of whom died.
Scotney Castle seems, however, to have continued in this family
until about the middle of the reign of Edward III., when it passed
to the Ashburnhams of Ashburnham in Sussex. Roger Ashburnham,
a Conservator of the Peace, resided here in 1 Richard II.,
and castellated the mansion; but his successor, in the beginning
of the reign of Henry V., alienated it to Henry Chicheley, Archbishop
of Canterbury, who occasionally lived here, and who dated
hence one of his mandates in 1418. In that year, however, the
Archbishop settled this property on his niece Florence (daughter
of his youngest brother William, and widow of Sir William Peche,
of Lullingstone) , on her marriage with John Darell, Esq., of Cale
Hill in Little Chart, Kent, second son of WilHam Darell, Esq., of
Sesay, co. York.. It continued £or many years in this family ; and
Thomas Darell had his lands disgavelled in 2 and 8 Edward VI.
In a book, edited by J obn Morris, Priest of the Society of
Jesus, in 1872, entitled Plie Proubles of ou1· Oatlwlic Forefatkm·s
relateil by tliemselves, there is an interesting account, gathered from
contemporary papers in the A.1·cMves ile l' Etat, at Brussels and at
40 SCOTNEY OA.S'l'LE.
Stonyhlll'st College, of the escape of Father Richard Blount, VicePrefect,
and afterwards First Provincial of the Jesuits in England,
from Scotney Castle, where for eight years he secretly resided, and
perhaps a summary of these documents, which throw some light on
the state of the castle in those days, may be worth recording. It
appears by these extracts that there were then many buildings
of which no traces now remain, and there is indeed a vague
tradition that the father or grandfather of a very old tenant
on the estate, who died several years ago, remembered the time
when the men-servants slept in a chamber over the gat!'lway, and
that the drawbridge was raised every night. The late house is said,
but we know not on what authority, to have been built from a
design by Inigo Jones. 'rhe plan was that of a large mansion,
extending from the south to the north bank 0£ the moat, but only
the centre and one wing were erected; and it is said that the stones
·of those parts of the · old castle which were taken down were
employed in building the Court Lodge at Lamberhurst, now the
property of Mr. Morland. The only parts of the old castle left
were one machicolated tower, the doorway of another, the lower
part of the entrance gateway, and some fragments of the old walls.
These extracts also bear remarkable testimony to the state of the
roads in this district, an evil which, from the difficulty of procuring
_hard material to mend them with, still existed in some places in the
memory 0£ old men yet living. Mr. Collins of Lamberhurst,
mentioned in Mr. Darell's paper, may perhaps have been ancestor
of Samuel Collins, a Roman Catholic stone-mason, who died there
in 1830, aged 78, and was reputed to have been the last person
baptizedin the private chapel of Scotney Castle.
This property remained for many years in the possession of
the Darells ; but it appears that this branch 0£ the family, like
many others, £ell somewhat into . decadence. .A. rather singular
story is related respecting the fone:r;al; 0£ one 0£ its members,
possibly that 0£ Arthur, last* son 0£ wlu.Jiam and Elizabeth Darell,
whose burial is recorded on December 12, 1720. It is said that
when the mourners were assembled around the grave, a tall figure,
muffled in a black cloak, whom no one recognized, was observed
among them; and as the coffin was .being lowered into the grave,
he tapped his neighbour on the shoulder, and said, " That is me
they think they are burying.". He so·on afterwards disappeared,
* The word" Zast" is evidently an additiii ·to the original entry of burial.

SCOTNEY CASTLE. 41
and no clue was ever found to the occurrence, but many years
afterwards, John Bailey, who was sexton in the parish from about
1816 to 1867, having occasion to prepare a grave in the south-east
aisle of the church which belongs to Scotney, came upon a very
solid and heavy oak coffin, studded with large iron nails, and from
curiosity, which its peculiar make excited, he raised the lid, which
was partially decayed, and to his astonishment found no remains of
a skeleton, but only heavy stones apparently put in to give it
weight. This account, which is remembered by the present Vicar,
Mr. Hawkins, and probably by others, gives some confirmation to
the foregoing story, which otherwise might have been treated as
one of the many similar myths that tradition records, one of which
is that a secret passage once existed from Scotney to Bayham, and
that a dog being put in at one end came out at the end of a week
at the other much exhausted, and with the hair rubbed off his back.
It is almost needless to say that no foundation for this tale was
ever discovered.
In 177 4 John Darell conveyed the house and part of the estate
to one John Richards of Robertsbridge, who has been variously
described as a dancing master, a quack doctor, and a mountebank !
But whoever be was, he, in 1778 and the following years, resold it
to .Edward Hussey,* the grandfather of its present owner, who, a

SECTIONS SHEWING THE POSITION OF SECRET CHAMBERS IN OLD SCOTNEY CASTLE.
SCOTNEY CASTLE. 43
In 1837 a new house was erected on higher ground according
to the plans 0£ Mr. Anthony Salvin, the able restorer 0£ Alnwick
Castle, Brancepetb, and many other ancient buildings, and a great
part 0£ the Jacobean portion 0£ the old mansion was taken down.
Some curious discoveries then came to light.* A secret passage was
found, in the thickness 0£ one 0£ the internal walls, divided into
two parts by a strong oak door with iron bolts. In 1887, in making
some alterations, in that part 0£ the old house which remains
habitable, a secret small room, entered by a sliding panel, was
discovered under the stairs, which probably formed the hidingplace
0£ Father Blount and his companion in their first concealment.
When the moat was emptied in 1887, a portion 0£ chain-armour
found near the gateway was evidently a relic 0£ some early assailant
0£ the castle; numerous wine bottles 0£ peculiar shape, likewise
found then in the moat, were said to be German Hock bottles, and
one had a seal on the glass with the crest and coronet or a Duke 0£
Beaufort, surrounded by the garter. These bottles, by the o:x.ydation
0£ the lead contained in the glass, or other causes, are covered
by a film 0£ various colours, similar to, but more brilliant than the
specimens 0£ Roman glass so common in museums. It may also be
noted that pieces of the iron work used in the old building, on
being tested by the village blacksmith, were found to be considerably
tougher and stronger than ordinary iron, being probably
smelted with wood at the neighbouring £urn.aces, possibly at the
Gloucester Furnace in Lamberhurst, where the iron railing £or
St. Paul's Cathedral was a£terwards cast.
Lamberhurst Church is within the county 0£ Kent; and in its
south chancel or chapel, which appertains to the owners 0£ Scotney
Castle, there is an archway on the north side, adjoining the altar,
the base of which is about two £eet below the present pavement.
This probably is a remnant 0£ the building mentioned in the Sussex
ArchceologicaZ Collections, vol. ii., p. 144, where it is related that
King Edward I., on Sunday, June 21, 1299, in his journey through
this district, "made an oblation 0£ 78 in his chapel at Lamberhm•st
for the good news he had heard from France." He also went from
Goudhurst to Lamberhurst on Tuesday, June 29, 1305.
* Beneath the floor of a hiding-place, which was entered by a trap door, in
the oak floor of the upper gallery, the situation of which is shewn in the accompanying
plate, were found a printed proclamation "by the Lord Protector"
(Oliver Cromwell), "Declaring his Highness pleasure and command for putting
in execution the Laws Statutes and OrdinanceR made against Jesuits and Priests,
and for the speedy conviction of Popish Recusants," and some other papers of
little interest.
44 SCOTNEY CASTLE .
EXTRACTS from the account 0£ FATHER BLOUNT•s escape from
Scotney Castle, in The T1·oubles of ou1· Catholic Forefathers, by
JORN Mo1rnIS, Priest 0£ the Society 0£ Jesus. 1872.
In the year 1598, or in that next before it, Mr. Darell's house in Sussex
(Scotney Castle) was twice searched, Father Blount at each time being in the
house; the first time by two Justices of the Peace with a Pursuivant, and such
as they brought with them to watch and beset the house; who, at their first
coming, ·sent Mr. Darell to London, prisoner, his wife to one of the Justices'
houses, and most of the servants to the county gaol; suffering one maid to stay
with the little children, and the searchers havin"g the house.
During the space of a week Father Blount was in a secret place under the
stair, having one man with him with very small provision ; and when it seemed
they could subsist no longer, Father Blount sent out his man who offered
himself to the searchers, feigning that he came out of another hole which he
shewed them, and was carried away for a priest, and the other escaped.
About one year after, one Hanberry, a fallen Catholic, formerly a servant at
Scotney, plotted to betray the house, and Sir George Rivers and two other
Justices of the Peace, with Pursuivants and their retinue, beset the house in the
dead of the night, about Christmas, and seized a maid-servant the next morning
before day, going out on some special business. They commanded her to carry
them to her master's chamber, and to light them a candle, but she discreetly
told them she would not light a candle, framing some excuse, and instead she
stood at the bottom of the stairs calling aloud, " Mistress, here is Sir George
Rivers and two Justices (naming them) come to speak with you." Whereupon
they knew that the house was both beset and taken, so that with all convenient
speed they gave him notice, who incontinently, with his man Bray, with all
possible speed they could, made haste to the place of refuge ; and Father Blount
who had been awakened by the noise, putting on nothing but his breeches, got
with his man into the secret place, digged in a thick stone wall, carrying with
him some church stuff and books, some of which things were afterwards a
hindrance to his saving himself by swimming.
'rhe gentleman of the house [Mr. Darell] was carried to London and
committed close prisoner to Newgate. Being possessed of the house, they go
searching generally over all the house, but most punctually. They performed
that task in the night twice, with candles, having for that purpose both
bricklayers and carpenters always at hand.
· At that time Mrs. Darell was shut up in one room over the gate with her
children, and the searchers had posRession and liberty of the whole house for the
space of ten days; Father Blount and the man having no other sustenance but
a little bottle of wine and a little loaf of bread, and no other clothes but their
breeches and a priest's cassock. During this time they searched and found
nothing.
About the end of this time Mrs. Darell found means to go sometimes out of
her chamber, and at the last got to the door of the place, where finding the end
of a girdle used at mass to be shut out, hanging on the outside of the door of
the biding place (strange Providence!) she cut it off, but yet not so close but
that some remained which she thought might betray them, whereupon she called
to them within, "Pull in the string," which presently they did. Those, that it
seems, watched her, came presently to her, and asked her to whom she spake, and
of what string. She answered that the door by which she meant to pass being
shut, she heard somebody in the next room and called to them to open the door,
which was done by pulling the string of the latch. This answer not satisfying
them, they fell to search about the place, which was a little court with stone
buildings about it, beating with a beetle upon the stones, and many times upon
the door of the place, which was a stone in show not differing from the rest ; but
one, a bricklayer, marked the stones exactly, and fastening his eyes on a broad
stone, perceived it not placed as the others, according to the mason's art and
rules, and presently says, "This stone was never put in when this wall was
SCOTNEY CA.STLE. 45
built," which said, he sounds it with his hammer, and perceiving it hollow, says,
" Here is the place," whereu1)on all shouted, and after many great blows, the
hinges of the door ·began to yield, at which they within set their backs to the
door to support it against the blows what they could, but it was so much moved
as that they saw the candle light of the searchers, and could hear all they said.
It grew late in the evening, and it rained extremely fast, and the gutters
poured down upon the searchers; and one of the company, Mr. Collins of
Lamberhurst, a great enemy to that house, swore a great oath that they would
have the priest to-morrow; whereupon they left the place, and not so much as
left a guard to guard it, which is to be wondered at; and making a good fire in
the hall, they sat there drying themselves and drinking. .And soon after the
Justices went to bed, and most of the rest sat by the fire, drinking, and for joy
drunk deep.
When the coast was clear thereabouts, Mr. Blount told his man that they
must now change their resolutions, that is, they must now venture to escape; if
it be possible, "for if we stay here till to-morrow, we shall infallibly be taken,
and then the gentleman will be undone." Father Blount (who without this
act of God's Providence, which seemed accidental, by all likelihood had died in
the place, as resolving so rather than to put himself into the hands of the searchers
which had overthrown the house), taking the opportunity of the stormy and
dark night, first sent out his man and soon followed himself.
Coming to the court they perceived two men walking and talking, and
taking opportunity when they turned, passed along by the house side, and so to
the moat wall, where Bray stooped and told his master to tread upon his back, that
so he might reach the top of the wall, which done, he helped his man also up.
Barefoot they got over two walls about ten feet high, aud so to a broken tower
about sixteen feet above the water of the moat which was there about eighty feet
broad, and so deep as could not be waded. From thence the Father leaped into
moat, by his courage outleaping certain piles whioh stood near the tower, and
were covered with water and not known to him. He intended that his man
should have leaped down after him, and so he would have carried him over, but
finding himself weak, he swam over, and being on the other side said to his man
on the tower [Father Blount told a friend afterwards that the moat was
covered with a thin ice*], "I am so weak as if I should come back to fetch you,
we should both be drowned."
His man's escape, they say, was after this manner. He, not having the art
of swimming, durst not venture by water, but boldly came into the hall, where
he found a great company lying asleep, and loudly cries, " Thieves, thieves in
the stable ! Drunken rogues, do you lie here and suffer my master Sir George
Rivers' horses to be stolen ? " At which they roused up, all of them crying,
" Thieves, thieves in the stable," and running and crying, the two men in the
court opened the gate and let them out, and Bray with them. They ran to the
stable and he to the window. When they found no alterations about the stable,
they asked one another what was he that called them up, and where he was,
One answered he saw one man in a strange habit go to such a place, and heard
him plunge into the moat, after which answer tliey all concluded it was the
priest, and undoubtedly he was drowned in the moat. Whereupon they began
to drag the moat to find the drowned ]Jriest, and so long they continued in this
conceit, that Ilray had time to rejoin the Father who had lost his way, and was
come back to the house, and they together went to a certain house where a
Catholic servant of Mr. Darell did dwell, about half a mile from the house, and
there they got some of tl10 husbandman's clothes, and each of them a 11air of his
hard shoes, the Father's feet being full of thorns in getting over many thorny
hedges, and wounded with getting over the walls.
'fhus they went fourteen miles that night in dirty ways, sometimes up to
* This was apparently inserted by Father John Darell, Rector of St. Omers,
in 1'75'7, the narrative being written by William Darell, grandson of Thomas
