Abstract
For centuries it was assumed that in the course of Milton’s final year at Cambridge his father retired and the family moved in 1632 to the village of Horton, a few miles from Windsor, where Milton was said to have lived until he left for Italy in 1638. Two discoveries have obliged biographers to reconfigure this period. In 1949 the discovery of four Chancery dispositions in the Public Record Office made it clear that from 14 September 1632 (and perhaps earlier) to 8 January 1635 (and perhaps later), the Miltons lived not at Horton, but at Hammersmith.
