In 1867 William Henry Mandeville Ellis of St John’s College, Cambridge purchased a 4 inch Thomas Cooke & Sons telescope. I think that William Ellis was an architect.
The telescope came with six astronomical,
one comet, one eclipse and one terrestrial eyepieces. All the eyepieces had to
be packed in a mahogany box.
