By the Ordinances attached to the Christ Church (Oxford) Ordinance Act 1867 the income was directed to be applied, with other funds, towards the maintenance of the Westminster Junior Studentships.

It proved an uncertain source of income and was sold in 1775 for the sum of £2000, which was invested in South Sea Annuities”.
