The Bulletin  

THE HORSE’S BEST FRIEND-mge 25  

“The Bulletin,” Vol. 77—No. 3974  

Wednesday, April 11, 1956  

Price 9d.  

Registered at the General Post Office, Sydney, N.S.W., Australia, for transmission by Post as Newspaper  

"EVIDENCE of the heavy death duties  

which Britain’s landowners havte  

faced in recent years is the case of Cote-  

hele House which was accepted by the  

Government in 1946 in lieu of death  

duties from the sixth Earl of Mount  

Edgecumbe. The following year it was  

given by the Treasury to the National  

Trust by whom it is now administered.  

Like their many other great and historic  

properties, Cotehele is open to the public  

at certain times on payment of small  

admission charge.  

This medieval mansion, one of the  

best preserved baronial dwellings in  

Britain, stands in terraced gardens high  

above the river Tamar in the parish of  

Calstock, Cornwall. It remains today  

very much as it did at the end of the  

15th century in the reign of Henry VII  

when it was built by Sir Richard Edge-  

cumbe. The family held the manor for  

nearly six hundred years and they pre-  

served not only the medieval structure  

but also the contents so that today it is  

treasure-house which attracts the interest  

and admiration of many visitors to that  

part of Cornwall.  

The magnificent furniture, tapestries  

and armour have been generously left on  

loan by the Earl of Mount Edgecumbe  

and are outstanding examples of fine  

craftsmanship. Mortlake and Flemish  

tapestries decorate the walls of the bed-  

room once occupied by King Charles I.  

In 1789 George 111, Queen Charlotte and  

their daughters were entertained at  

Cotehele. Here can be seen small silk  

satchel which was gift to member of  

the family from Queen Victoria. In the  

same room is preserved letter from Lord  

Nelson, written on the Agamemnon in  

1794, and letter from the Duke of  

Wellington dated December, 1840.  

An outstanding feature of the interior  

is the Great Hall which served as mead  

tavern during the Festival of Britain.  

The roof is still in its medieval form and  

on the rough stone floor stands massive  

oak refectory table which displays 17th-  

century pewter, much of it bearing the  

Edgecumbe arms. On the walls hang  

trophies of the chase, halberds, pikes,  

bills, swords, daggers and other ancient  

weapons of war which are associated with  

Agincourt and other famous battles of  

long ago. Here, also, is massive two-  

handled sword which is reputed to have  

belonged to the Black Prince, who became  

the first Duke of Cornwall in 1337.  

No. 293: the Homeland Series by the House of Seppelt.
