Stop Press - The Wheelergate Ceiling at Lassco Three Pigeons
Stop Press - The Wheelergate Ceiling currently with Lassco, Three Pigeons, Milton Common, Oxfordshire.
The ceiling has now (June 2019) been partly removed from store in New Cross and the central oval put up at Lassco Three Pigeons, the London Architectural Salvage and Supply Company at Milton Common, Oxfordshire.
Price £215,000 - I'm sure this is negotiable!
For reasons known only to themselves the powers that be at Lassco, have ignored my researches included in this blog.

4 - 6 Wheelergate, Nottingham. Documents at Nottingham Records
4-6 Wheelergate, Nottingham.
The Deeds and Documents deposited at Nottingham Records Office by The Pearl Assurance Company.
These documents all appear to refer in part to part of The Feathers, and the Old Moot Hall properties on the
corner of Wheelergate and Friar Lane.
None of these documents below make any reference to the Bradylls, whose crests decorate the plaster ceiling. The mystery of the connection between the Bradylls and the Wheelergate Buildings remains to be solved.

Afterwards he was for some time engaged in business as a silk-hosier.
A liberal in politics, he came
forward, unsuccessfully, in 1830 as a candidate for the representation of the
borough of Nottingham. In 1836 he was elected to the town
council, and he continued to be a member for seven years.
In 1845-6 he became proprietor
and editor of the Nottingham Mercury, but
his opinions were considered too temperate by his readers. The circulation of
the paper declined, and in 1851 the mass of subscribers withdrew in protest at
Bailey's views respecting the original error of the Ecclesiastical
Titles Bill, and his prophecies of its inevitable failure. In the following
year the journal declared bankrupt.
In 1830, he purchased a mansion
at Basford, near Nottingham, where he spent the later years of his life,
engaged in literary pursuits and in the formation of a collection of books and
engravings.
He died at Basford on 23
October 1856. His son, Philip James Bailey, is the author of Festus and of other poems

From - Robert Mellors, Old Nottingham suburbs: then and now [Basford] (1914)
THOMAS BAILEY, who lived many
years in the large brick house near to Basford Church, "commenced at a
very early period of his youth," says Mr. C. Brown in his
"Worthies," "a discipline of early self-education, studied the
characters of benefactors to society, and generally improved his mind. He
became an eloquent public speaker, was elected to the Town Council in 1836,
became the proprietor of the Nottingham "Mercury." He devoted much
time during 20 years to the improvement of the roads in Basford, was
chairman of the Board of Guardians, 1855-7, and formed a village library. He
compiled that valuable work, "The Annals of Notts." in four volumes,
to which he devoted much time and care; wrote "What is Life?", and
many other treatises. He died in 1856, aged 71, "relying wholly and humbly
upon the mercies of One he knew to be his Saviour." His grave is in the
old cemetery.

Preignes haleine tire fort. Estate Ashlyns Hall, near Great
Berkhampstead, Herts, purchased in 1801.
James Smith of Ashlyns Hall - Burke
says, "This family, with the collateral branches of
Sir George Bromley and Lord Carrington, derive immediately from Thomas Smith,
of Reyworth, in the county of Nottingham, and of Gadesby, in Leicestershire,
who was a descendant of the Smiths of Ashby Folville and Gadesby, and from whom
he inherited this latter property in 1699. The Smiths of Ashby deduced their
origin from Sir Michael Carrington, Standard Bearer to King Richard I in the
Holy Land, one of whose descendants changed his name to Smyth during the
conflicts between the houses of York and Lancaster, for purposes of concealment,
which surname remained afterwards that of the family."
