Now within
an angel twin
a spirit capped
Covered
A fallen twin
though spirit kept
crept within
Shuttered
Leaves impress
though wither since
yet with one hand
Carried
By silk, by light
a faith, a plight
as we hark and herald
Surely
I am to have
come today
Happy I believe
and run away
(Eva Sweetly, 15 May 1915)

Chiefly set in the hundred of Pimhill, Myddle Castle was built perhaps 1308, by Lord John Le Strange. The castle would ultimately collapse into ruin during the earthquake of 1688, but recognition of the Middleditch family crest would only grow. Spelling variations eventually included: Middle, Midel, Mittel, Mittle, Middler, Midlar and Thomas Middleditch.
