PLATE VII. Calais about the time of Thomas Betson

This plan of Calais in 1546 is reproduced from a ’Platt of the Lowe Countrye att Calleys, drawne in October, the 37th Hen.  VIII, by Thomas Pettyt,’ now in the British Museum. (Cott.  MS. Aug.  I, vol.  II, no. 70).  There is only room to show the top corner of the plan, with the drawing of Calais itself, but the whole plan is charming, with its little villages and great ships riding in the channel.

PLATE VIII. Thomas Paycocke’s house at Coggeshall

From a photograph of the front of the house, standing on the street.  Note the long carved breastsummer that supports the overhanging upper story.  On the left can be seen, much foreshortened, the archway and double doors of linen fold panels.  The windows are renovations on the original design, flat sash windows having been put in in the eighteenth century.
