Early life

Career

Westlake was a barrister of the Middle Temple and the Surveyor of the Woods for the Duchy of Lancaster. In 1698, or slightly after, he carried out a survey of the royal hunting ground of Enfield Chase in order to allow the felling of timber for the creation of new ridings and a lawn of 300 acres in the centre for deer to feed in.[3] As a result of this survey a new map was created of the Chase, one of the few to exist, and one of the last before enclosure of the Chase in 1777.[4]
