Darrell Buttery (1941-2022) was an inspiring teacher, a writer, and a champion of the civic heritage of the city he made his home. Born in Guisborough, he first became enthralled with history and heritage at a young age, when visiting York and its churches when his father was the manager of a cinema in the city. After leaving Guisborough Grammar School, Buttery studied English at Durham University before taking up a career in education teaching English Literature. After his first post at Ashville College in Harrogate, he went on to become the Head of English at Wootton Bassett School before returning to Yorkshire to teach at Nunthorpe Grammar School, Queen Mary’s School near Thirsk, and Pocklington School. Over the decades Buttery built up an extraordinary depth of knowledge of the history of his beloved York. His dedication to preserving the historic sites of the city led him to join and hold positions in numerous cultural organisations, including becoming Chairman and President of the York Civic Trust, Chairman of York Georgian Society, Governor of York’s Company of Merchant Adventurers, as well as becoming a Conservative member for Harrogate Borough Council. An engaging public speaker with a sharp wit, he fought vociferously numerous planning applications that would despoil York’s important historic sites. As a collector, he filled his Georgian villa overlooking York Racecourse with art and antiques, seeking out pieces linked with York, and as an author published works including ‘The Vanished Buildings of York’ (1984), ‘Picture of York Minster from 17th Century to the Present’ (2007), and the co-authored ‘The Streets of York: Four Centuries of Change’ (2018). Darrell Buttery was a deputy lieutenant of North Yorkshire, was appointed MBE in 2018 and is remembered by all who knew him as a deeply kind and courteous man with impeccable manners and a ready wit, who was unceasing in his fight to preserve the many wonders of York.

It has been the unvaried tradition that this service was made for the first baronet although armorially there is no reason why the service could not have been made for Sir John’s son. This service is therefore the earliest dateable example of the new famille rose enamels being used on Chinese porcelain influenced by European originals.
