Notes From Elsewhere
Councillor John Gold Philpot, Thomas’s brother died in 1895
[Thomas Embray Davenport Philpot (1859-1918) lived at Gatesfield in Sidmouth Road, which he acquired in 1884 at the age of 26 and renamed Holme Cleeve. He was the great nephew of the Misses Philpot, whose geological collections went to Oxford University and who had worked with Mary Anning. The family were wealthy lawyers with a house in Portland Place, London. Never married, he became a town councillor, mayor of Lyme Regis in 1890-92, a county magistrate, Lyme Regis’s first county councillor following the creation of county councils in 1889, and a stalwart of the Primrose League which supported the Conservative Party. ]
