PEWSEY, or PUSEY, a parish in the hundred of GANFIELD, county of BERKS, 4 miles (E. by N.) from Great Farringdon, containing 122 inhabitants. The living is a rectory, in the archdeaconry of Berks, and diocese of Salisbury, rated in the king's books at £8. 12. 11., endowed with £200 private benefaction, £200 royal bounty, and £300 parliamentary grant, and in the patronage of the Bishop of Salisbury. The church, dedicated to All Saints, was rebuilt at the expense of Mr. Allen Pusey, who died in 1789, and to whose memory it contains a handsome marble monument. The Antiquarian Society has caused an engraving to be made of the celebrated Pusey Horn, by which the manor is held by the Pusey family. According to Dr. Hickes, the manor was possessed in his time by Charles Pusey, Esq., who.had recovered it in Chancery before Lord Chancellor Jefferies, when the horn being produced in court, was proved to be the identical horn by which, under a charter, Canute the Great granted the manor to his ancestor, seven hundred years before. The horn is that of an ox, of a dark brown colour, and may have been used either as a hunting or a drinking horn, but more particularly the former.
