The reference to Sir John Henry Greville Smyth is probably to do with the fact that he, along with Richard Symes and two others, were the owners of Durdham Down in Bristol. They sold it to the City Corporation by Act of Parliament in 1861. You can view a copy of the Act at: http://www.bristol.gov.uk/ccm/cms-service/download/asset/?asset_id=19029109
