Note 29 — INGESTRIE HALL, STAFFORDSHIRE.

William Chetwynd, who was Gentleman Usher of the Chamber to Henry the Seventh, in the ninth year of that king’s reign was barbarously and treacherously assassinated on Tixal Heath, near Ingestre, by Sir Humphrey Stanley, of Pipe, from motives of jealousy, having inveigled him from his house by a counterfeit letter. Pennant says:—“It does not appear that justice overtook the assassin, although his widow perseveringly evoked it.”
