Myddleton Pomfret

Myddleton Pomfret is an 1868 novel by the British writer William Harrison Ainsworth, published in three volumes by Chapman and Hall. It was originally serialised in Bentley's Miscellany between July 1867 and March 1868. This was the last of his novels to feature in the magazine which ceased publication in 1868.

Ainsworth was known for historical novels, but in the late 1860s in an effort to counter flagging sales he produced three novels with contemporary settings including Old Court (1867) and Hilary St Ives (1870). Only three other novels in his large body of work, including Mervyn Clitheroe (1858), are set in the present.
