Charlton, Hertfordshire
Charlton is a hamlet in Hertfordshire, England, close to the town of Hitchin but retaining its separate identity. It has a population of less than fifty.
The manor of Charlton is mentioned in the Domesday Book as belonging to Ilbert of Hitchin. It later came into the possession of the Knights Templars, and then by the Knights Hospitallers with the manor of Temple Dinsley until the suppression of the latter order. The manor subsequently came to Edward Pulter, who sold it in 1582 to Ralph Radcliffe from which time it was part of the property of Hitchin Priory. 〔'Hitchin: Introduction and manors', A History of the County of Hertford: volume 3 (1912), pp. 3-12. URL: http://www.british-history.ac.uk/report.aspx?compid=43569〕
Charlton House is the birthplace of inventor Henry Bessemer in 1813. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.telegraph.co.uk/property/periodproperty/9821880/Homes-for-sale-with-blue-plaques.html?frame=2460183 )〕 The mill-wheel was adapted by his grandfather to power a small foundry. The ''water''-mill was therefore converted to a foundry during the occupancy of the Bessemer family and back to a mill again afterwards.〔(Sir Henry Bessemer Inventor & Engineer ), Accessed 18 May 2012〕 There are remains of a windmill less than half a mile from the Windmill Pub from which it may have taken its name. There was, until the 1970s, also a water-wheel in the mill-race in the yard of Wellhead Farm.
According to an article by Peter Harkness in Vol 1, No 1 of "Old Hitchin Life" the Harkness family's now world-famous rose-nursery was, in the late 19th century, based in Charlton as well as Bedale, in Yorkshire, with Robert Harkness moving into Charlton House (Bessemer's birthplace) in 1895.
