The Manor of <strong>Lackham</strong> <strong>Vol</strong> 3 : The Montagu family<br />
Fig. 25 Excerpt from the map for the proposed Wilts & Berks Canal,<br />
before 1796 386 **<br />
This clearly shows the new <strong>Lackham</strong> house, and as it’s inscription states<br />
it is for the “proposed” canal it must predate the end of 1795 387 .<br />
Therefore the current <strong>Lackham</strong> House was built by James Montagu V<br />
sometime between 1793 and 1795.<br />
386 Redrawn by TP from the original,<br />
387 When the enabling Act was passed and the Canal ceased being “proposed”<br />
This section is taken from Pratt, T (2009) The Manor Houses of <strong>Lackham</strong> 1050-1949”<br />
pp 2-3, 25-26. The book can be found online at<br />
