T.C. Lethbridge: from Knowle House to Hole House

Description

T.C. Lethbridge died, aged 70, on the 30th of September 1971 at Nuffield Hospital in Exeter, Devon (1). His credits were extensive, so much that his occupation is variously listed as the author of 24 books, an explorer, an archaeologist, a parapsychologist, an investigator of the occult, for thirty years a director of excavations for the Cambridge Antiquarian Society and the Keeper of Anglo-Saxon Antiquities at the Cambridge University Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology. As pictured on the upper photograph, T.C. Lethbridge is on a boat, appropriately, as eleven of his books concerned historic seafaring. He sailed to the Arctic on three expeditions, undertook several investigative Hebridean and Baltic voyages and crossed the North Atlantic on a covert pre-war mission to Iceland (2). Peers working in his multiple fields described Lethbridge as either "ahead of his time" or"a loose cannon and maverick" (3). Despite legitimate accomplishments, he is not well remembered, likely because of his controversial methodologies and unorthodox beliefs.

On the 1901 England Census, Knowle House on the northeastern edge of Timberscombe, was inhabited by Ambrose and Violet Lethbridge, both 26-years-old and with his occupation listed as "Living on own means". The young couple had seven servants. Perhaps the only occupant at Knowle House that might be recalled by older residents of Timberscombe would be one of the Lethbridge's housemaids, Eva Jane Floyde. With her mother and brother, Miss Floyde owned the village post office at Berrowcote on Brook Street (4) and later in her life lived at Rose Cottage, where she made and sold ice-cream (5). Also mentioned on the census was Mr. and Mrs. Lethbridge's still-unnamed son, an "infant", under a month old. Born at Knowle House on 23 March 1901, by the16th of April when the baby was baptised by Rev. Henry Herbert Bell at St. Petrock's Church in Timberscombe, he had been named Thomas Charles Lethbridge (6).

He was a child born to wealth. In 1898 Ambrose Yarburgh Lethbridge had married Violet Murdoch, born at Hanover Square, London (7). Ambrose, born at Trull, Somerset (8), was the son of Charles Lethbridge, whose father was the Rev. Thomas Prowse Lethbridge, born in Luxborough (9) and a graduate of Oxford (10) that went on to become the Rector at Combe Florey, Somerset. Rev. Lethbridge was the third son of Sir Thomas Buckler Lethbridge (1778-1849), the 2nd Baronet of Sandhill Park near Taunton and an MP representing Somerset (11). He is profiled at SP-312.

Various sources have the Lethbridge's fortune being made in 1865 when Ambrose's father, Charles, married Susan Anne Yarburgh of Heslington Hall, Yorkshire (12). She has been described as a wealthy "coal heiress", which may be true but her father and grandfathers were trained as magistrates and barristers, and indeed the Lethbridge family seems to have been already quite secure (13). Nevertheless, when he was six-years-old, Ambrose and his parents divided their time between Heslington Hall, with 15 servants and their London home at 48 Charles Street, St. George, Mayfair, where they managed with a staff of twelve (14).

Ambrose and Violet Lethbridge were renting Knowle House from Mrs. Jesse Battersby. She and her husband, Worsley Battersby, had purchased the entire Knowle Estate around 1885 (15). Mr. Battersby had died in 1896 and their daughter, Olive Jesse Battersby had died in 1899 at the age of 17. Both were buried at St. Petrock's (16) and Jesse Battersby had returned to her childhood home in Cheltenham (17).

By 1904, Mr. and Mrs. Lethbridge and young Thomas Charles had left Knowle House and relocated to West Knighton, Dorset, where a daughter, Jacintha, was born on the 7th of June (18). They were now living at Lewell Lodge, built c. 1796 and Grade II listed in 1956 (19). Ambrose and Violet seemed to enjoy impressive homes, soon going from Dorset to Flushing, Cornwall where they moved into Trevissome, a Georgian home overlooking Falmouth Bay (20) and where their third child, Ambrose ("Bill") William Speke Lethbridge was born in 1907 (21).

The family was still at Trevissome in 1909 when Ambrose contracted tuberculosis. His mother, Susan, had died the year before and Ambrose, Violet and the children moved in with his father, Charles, at Heytesbury, Wiltshire--where Ambrose died in September 1909, aged 34 (22). Ambrose and his mother are both buried at St. Peter and St. Paul Church in Heytesbury (23).

On the 1911 Census, Violet, Jacintha and Bill Lethbridge were living at the 16th century (with origins traced to 1298) Manor House at Finchampstead, Wokingham, Berks (24), along with a Governess, Nurse, Butler, Cook, Kitchen Maid and two House Maids. Ten-year-old Thomas Charles Lethbridge was at school at Heatherdown, Ascot Heath in Winkfield, Berkshire, where he was recorded as being from "Knowle, Somerset". Interestingly, the school consisted of 14 boys. Living with and caring for the boys was a Hospital Nurse, a Governess, a Parlor Maid, a Kitchen Maid, a Scullery Maid and three Housemaids.

By 1913, perhaps his interest in boats and seafaring had begun as the Lethbridge family had plans for 12-year-old Thomas to join the Royal Navy. Indeed this was possible in 1913, as a boy aged between 13 and 15 could be enlisted as a "Cadet" and slated to be trained as a naval officer (25). Apparently Thomas failed the eye exam (26).

At the beginning of World War I, Thomas was attending Wellington College in Berkshire. During 1919 at Finchampstead, his sister and brother both became seriously ill as result of the Spanish flu pandemic and 12-year-old Bill died on the 15th of March. He was buried at St. James Churchyard, adjacent to their home, Manor House (27).

Thomas Lethbridge's reputation as an explorer (and when he became known as "T.C.") took off in 1921, when he joined a Norwegian expedition to Jan Mayen Island in the Arctic Circle. Arriving there in August, Lethbridge (described as the group's "naturalist"), Paul Louis Mercanton, a Swiss mountaineer and geologist and James ("Jock") Wordie, a Scottish geologist, became the first recorded men to ascend the 2,227 meter-high peak of an active volcano known as Beerenberg (28). The expedition was lauded as the mountaineering event of the year in The Times. Also on Jan Mayen Island, Lethbridge launched his career as an archaeologist, excavating an abandoned Eskimo settlement (29).

T.C. enrolled at Trinity College Cambridge in October 1921 with plans to study geology and geography, only to discover his classes were "crushingly dull", perhaps understandable after his Arctic journey. By all accounts, he avoided his studies with one distraction being Sylvia Frances Robertson, the daughter of the Vicar Choral and Headmaster of the Chorister School at Salisbury Cathedral. T.C. and Sylvia became engaged, with plans to marry in March 1922 (30).

Lethbridge managed to graduate from Trinity College with a third class BA in June 1923 and quickly sailed out that summer on a sealing sloop named Heiman. The goal of the expedition, led by Jock Wordie, was to explore the eastern coast of Greenland. The trip came close to disaster. Just past Jan Mayen, the boat became enclosed by a thick ice pack. With provisions running low, the crew had to hunt seals and polar bears for food and after finally escaping the ice, the mission was abandoned (31).

While T.C. Lethbridge had avoided his classes at university, he often frequented the Cambridge University Museum of Archaeology and Ethnology. Its' curator was Louis Colville Gray Clarke, also an archaeologist who had inherited considerable family wealth (32). Unsurprisingly, the two men became friends and Clarke offered Lethbridge the position of Keeper of Anglo-Saxon Antiquities. This suited everyone. For the museum, there was no money to pay a Keeper, which was not an issue for Lethbridge. For Lethbridge, he was now able to conduct his own excavations (albeit they had to be Anglo-Saxon) throughout Britain--and in his own manner, which was not always to the standards of his peers. By 1926, Lethbridge's standing was certified when he was elected a member (nominated by Clarke) of the Royal Anthropological Institute (the RAI). He continued as Keeper and as a director of excavations for the Cambridge Antiquarian Society for over thirty years (33).

After a delay of almost two years, the wedding of T.C. Lethbridge and Sylvia Robertson took place in February 1924 at Salisbury Cathedral (34). They lived at The Lodge at Waterbeach, Cambridgeshire, a house that T.C. had occupied since at least 1920 (35) and where their sons were born, Christopher John in March 1925 and Hugh Periam in July 1926 (36). A daughter, Belinda Mary, was born in April 1930 at Mount Blow, where the family had moved in 1927 (37). Designed by Sir Edwin Lutyens between 1908 and 1909, the neo-Georgian brick home is seen in the second photograph above, when its address was given as Haverhill Road, Stapleford, South Cambridgeshire (it is situated between the villages of Shelford and Stapleford). The photograph, taken by Nathaniel Lloyd, a business man who later studied architecture as a student of Lutyens, was taken between 1927 and 1930, when the Lethbridges would have been in occupation (38).

Despite becoming a father, holding a respected professional position and owning an impressive house, the rest of the 1930s were not easy for Lethbridge. Sylvia suffered mental illness leading to repeated hospitalisations, while her husband was often away yachting (39). Lethbridge produced eight of his seafaring books but all were self-published. In June 1937, he did embark on another expedition, again lead by Jock Wordie, to Northwestern Greenland where Lethbridge was able to record the lives of the native Inuit people and excavate Eskimo sites on various remote islands (40). Two lakes on Baffin Island were subsequently named the Lethbridge Lakes (41).

Also in 1937 and with the approach of World War II, T.C. Lethbridge enlisted with the Volunteer Supplementary Reserve of the Royal Navy (42). During the summer of 1939, he undertook a surveillance mission commissioned by the British Admiralty to travel to Iceland and report on any noticeable German naval activity. Instead Lethbridge spent much of his time seeking out the "real-life" locations that figured in Icelandic Sagas, as well as bird-watching (43). When war broke out, Lethbridge did transfer much of the collection of the museum to safe-keeping and became an air raid warden (44).

Recorded as living at Mount Blow on the 1939 England and Wales Register was 35-year-old Thomas Charles Lethbridge (he gave his occupation as "archaeologist"), 35-year-old Sylvia Lethbridge, 9- year-old Belinda Mary Lethbridge, a cook, a children's nurse, at least three servants and a secretary named Mina E. Leadbitter. At some point the secretary's surname is crossed out and "LETHBRIDGE" is written in blue ink over it. By 1939 Sylvia Lethbridge had taken a series of lovers and Thomas Charles Lethbridge had probably already fallen in love with 20-year-old Mina Elizabeth Leadbitter. It is interesting she is listed as being at Mount Blow as she was the secretary at the museum. She was also Sylvia's cousin (45).

In June 1943, Sylvia and T.C. divorced and by November, Mount Blow was sold to pay for a settlement to Sylvia. (The house was later renamed "Middlefield".) Lethbridge and Mina married at Oban, Angus, Scotland in July 1944 and left Cambridge to live on the Scottish island called Kerrera, where there were caves for T.C. to explore. However the island was too remote and the couple returned to Cambridge to continue working with colleagues that Lethbridge mostly despised (46).

Nevertheless T.C. Lethbridge entered perhaps his most lauded period of work. In 1945, while a farmer was ploughing a field, the largest Anglo-Saxon cemetery in Suffolk was discovered at Lackford on Cavenham Heath. The subsequent 1947 to 1949 excavation was led by "Tom" Lethbridge (47). Sadly in the middle of this work, during January 1948, Lethbridge learned of the suicide of his 22-year-old son, Hugh, at Angus, Scotland, the result of post-traumatic stress following his service with the armed forces during the war. Hugh Periam Lethbridge was buried at Oathlaw, Angus, Scotland (48).

Ironically, in the same month, "Merlin's Island: Essays on Britain in the Dark Ages" was published in London by Methuen & Co., T. C. Lethbridge's first book by a major publisher and more so, a critical success. It consisted of six essays concerning aspects of early medieval Britain. Critic, Miles C. Burkett wrote of Lethbridge "both the outlook and the approach are indeed refreshing"(49). Certainly many academics had always found Lethbridge's style too glib, perhaps too humorous and eclectic. Yet perhaps these aspects suited a more general audience. T.C.'s next three books concerned his favourite subject, historic seafaring and boats, but were now written for the public and published respectively and impressively by Bowes and Bowes, Cambridge University Press and again, Methuen & Co. In 1954, Lethbridge wrote about the history and legends of the Iron Age tribal people of eastern and northern Scotland from the 4th to 9th centuries, AD, in "The Painted Men: A History of the Picts" published by Andrew Melrose of London. During this time, T.C. Lethbridge was invited by the BBC to give a talk on their series "Myths or Legends", questioning if other European explorers had beaten Christopher Columbus to America (he said yes). While excavating a wheelhouse in 1956 at South Uist, Scotland, Lethbridge was visited by Queen Elizabeth II, Prince Philip, Prince Charles and Princess Anne, on her 6th birthday (50).

After a decade of more acceptance and even popularity, no doubt many of the more academic and professional archaeological community was eager to see T.C. Lethbridge stumble. That chance came, close to his home on Wandlebury Hill, part of the Gog Magog Hills near Cambridge. Samuel Cowle an older man, who assisted at the museum, had told Lethbridge that as a boy he had met a very old man, who also as a boy, remembered the figure of a giant warrior cut into the hillside. Beginning in late 1954, for almost eight months and armed with a 5 foot 9 inch tall stainless steel bar, T.C. Lethbridge probed the turf on Wandlebury, poking into it between 30,000 to 50,000 holes, all marked by wooden or steel posts. His reasoning was if the turf was removed at these spots, soft chalk sections would be revealed, that would eventually culminate as the missing warrior.

In time, Lethbridge increased speculation by claiming that he had found not only the warrior, but also chalk figures of a hooded goddess in a chariot (or on a horse) and a sun god, all at least 3000 years old (51). It probably did not aid Lethbridge's status with the academics that he sought publicity, giving interviews to newspapers and the BBC before anything was actually proven --or even evident. Using Lethbridge's unorthodox methodology, shapes could be found but to define them as god-like figures seemed apparent only to Lethbridge. Finally the Council of British Archaeology, with the aid of a geologist, decreed any chalk shapes discovered were natural, formed during the Ice Age. T.C. Lethbridge had some lukewarm advocates, mostly implying he was probably wrong though not proven wrong. Seeking public approval, Lethbridge wrote a book, "Gogmagog-The Buried Giants", defending his claims. No strong support ever came and indeed much of the general population thought he was destroying a nice hill (52). In late 1957, T.C. Lethbridge exited, resigned his position at the museum and he and Mina left Cambridge for good, moving to Hole House, an imposing Tudor, fortress-styled house at Branscombe in east Devon. If there had been a moat, Lethbridge would have likely raised the bridge.

Hole House would be their home for the rest of Lethbridge's life. After angering some locals by not allowing fox-hunting on his property, Lethbridge came to believe Hole House was haunted, with spectral smells and sounds. Although they certainly overlapped, if the first stage of Lethbridge's life could be described as one of exploration and the second was of excavation, the final stage was the study of the paranormal. The next book by T.C. Lethbridge was "Ghost and Ghoul", published in 1961 by Routledge and Kegan Paul, the publisher of his remaining books. These included volumes on witches, extra-sensory perception, and posited that all objects radiated energy which could be detected by dowsing, in particular with a pendulum attached to a string. A documentary, "Ghost Hunting with T.C. Lethbridge" was shown on the BBC in 1964, with him demonstrating his use of the pendulum in the garden at Hole House (53). Books followed questioning Darwinian evolution and supporting theories that extraterrestrials settled much of the world and that Britain's pre-historic stone-circles had been created as beacons for their spacecraft.

In the mid 1960s, T.C. Lethbridge developed heart disease, made worse by weight gain (54), evident in the third photograph taken at Hole House. Because of his illness, he was not able to attend the funeral of his mother, who died at the age of 96. In 1926, Violet Lethbridge had remarried. Her second husband was Lawrence G.F. Gordon, who had died in 1943 (55). At her death, Violet was buried at St. Jame's Churchyard in Finchampstead with her younger son, Bill Lethbridge, the boy who died during the flu pandemic. Her name, added to the gravestone, is simply "Violet" (56).

T.C. Lethbridge's heart condition eventually required around the clock care and he was taken to Nuffield Hospital where he died in his sleep (57). He was interred in the family plot at Heytesbury near his father and grandmother (58). As Hole House was owned by the Lethbridge Family Trust, Mina was required to move out. She took with her an unfinished manuscript by her husband (59) and with the aid of the writer, Colin Wilson, she completed the book and it was published in 1976 as "The Power of the Pendulum". The third photograph of T.C. Lethbridge at Hole House was reproduced on the book's jacket.

In 2011, Terry Welbourn published the biography, "T.C. Lethbridge: The Man Who Saw the Future". Indeed he may have. Lethbridge's work was already considered provocative and because of his later unorthodox beliefs and fascination with the paranormal (which he called "the odd"), it was increasingly scorned--or as written elsewhere, "his erstwhile cronies soon kicked him out of his club"(60). Nevertheless, T.C. Lethbridge's legacy might be that not all research need be formulaic, held in the grips of a tightly controlled, highly educated and often segregated fraternity but could perhaps be presented with humour, original thinking and independent conclusions.

(On 24 September 2022, the St.Petrock's History Group was contacted by Martin T. Forsey, looking for information on T.C. Lethbridge. Before his query, the connection between the "infant' at Knowle House in 1901 and a renowned archaeologist had not yet been made by --at least by me. Mr. Forsey's question did the History Group a favour and is appreciated---Tom Sperling)
