John Mobbs was a Northampton
shire coachman. In 1857 he married
the daughter of his old master, a rich
London distiller and thus became the
owner Of a large agricultural estate
in the then outskirts OF London. But
Mobbs' use Of the land was restricted
by certain ancient rights which the
citizens of London possessed to prac-
tice free archery" over them, and
there were stone "archer's marks
dotted over the fields when Mobbs
became their owner.
Mobbs, however granted leases i'm
providently over the greater part OF
/ the estate, and then mortgaged the
whole thing to a merchant named
Stuart. The greater part of the Mobbs
meadows thus fell into the hands OF
the Sturts, the head of whom is now
Lord Abingdon.
Building began on the Mobbs mead
ows in 1928 and twenty years later
they were all covered with houses
and factories, wharyes and coal yards,
canal basins and timber sheds. The
golden acres have ever since been
so occupied. Hideous slums grew up
there, too, which the taxpayers had to
buy up at high prices in order to re-
place them with parks and healthier
dwellings. As London increased In
value the value of the property went
up. and various descendants of John
MObbs went into the court, carried
on lawsuits, seized empty houses, and
otherwise endeavored TO assert their
alleged claims.
Many of the original leases did not
expire until 1870, and there was then
a great reopening of the legal hostili.
ties. The attempts to regain the
property for the descendants of Mobbs
always failed, however although there
seemed to be plenty of legal techni
caities to justify their pleas. At one
time professional pugilists were EN-
ployed to garrison the empty houses
but the Sturts won in the end anC
