William Petyt was a Bencher of the Inner Temple, Keeper of the Records in the Tower, and a prolific author. A tablet inscribed with quaint English, recording Petyt's charity, still stands on the dull little block building of the present century, which replaced the old school. Dr. Chamberlayne was another famous inhabitant of Church Street.
Bowack lived near the Rectory, and not far from him was the Old White Horse Inn, famous for the beauty of its decorative carving. Petyt's school was next to the church. The name was derived from its founder, who built it at his own expense for the education of poor children in the beginning of the eighteenth century.
