- John_Scott_of_Amwell abstract "John Scott (January 9, 1731 – December 12, 1783), known as Scott of Amwell, was a poet and writer on the alleviation of poverty.He was a wealthy Quaker who lived at Amwell near Ware in Hertfordshire, England. He is now remembered mainly for his shell grotto, which was restored by the Ware Society in 1991 and is now open to the public, and for his pastoral verse – his Poetical Works were published in 1782. The grotto and the man were both admired by Samuel Johnson, who intended to write his life but died before he could do so. The biography was then done by John Hoole, another of Johnson's circle and a translator and dramatist. Scott was a friend of David Barclay and one of William Blake's patrons.In his time he was celebrated as an expert on the turnpike roads and a critic of the Poor Law. He was an active member of three Hertfordshire turnpike trusts and his Digests of the General Highway and Turnpike Laws (1778) was praised by Sidney and Beatrice Webb who called him "the ablest Turnpike Trustee of his time". The Webbs also admired his Observations on the Present State of the Parochial and Vagrant Poor (1773). Despite their friendship, Scott took issue with Dr. Johnson on the rights of the American colonies and his Lives of the Poets.".
