TANRIDGE, (Surrey) on the S.W. side of Oxted, gives name to its H. and had once a priory. The Lp. was some time ago in the possession of Francis-Bostock Fuller, who bequeathed his best lands here, to the amount of 400 l. a year, to his grandson, Edw. Fuller, and the site of the priory and great tithes to his four daughters. Mr. Edw. Fuller afterwards sold his part to Will. Clayton of Marden, who also bought the priory-lands. The late learned antiquary, Sir Will. Howard, had a seat here; and at Undersnow in this p. where is dug the fine sand for hour-glasses, writing, and scowering, the sheriffs turn used to be kept for this Co. From hence to Croydon is a hilly barren tract, and full of coney-warrens, but the air is exceeding sweet and wholsome.
