The novel concerns the relationship between two fictional Victorian poets, Randolph Henry Ash ( whose life and work are loosely based on those of the English poet Robert Browning, or Alfred Tennyson, whose work is more consonant with the themes that are portrayed as Ash, as well as his being poet-laureate to Queen Victoria ) and Christabel LaMotte ( similarly based on Christina Rossetti ), as revealed to present day academics Roland Michell and Maud Bailey.

Matthew Boulton and Erasmus Darwin met some time between 1757 and 1758, possibly through family connections, as Boulton's mother's family were patients of Darwin ; or possibly though shared friendships, as both were admirers of the printer John Baskerville and friends of the astronomer and geologist John Michell, a regular visitor to Darwin's house in Lichfield.

The gravitational weakening of light from high-gravity stars was predicted by John Michell in 1783 and Pierre-Simon Laplace in 1796, using Isaac Newton's concept of light corpuscles ( see: emission theory ) and who predicted that some stars would have a gravity so strong that light would not be able to escape.

Although Michell seems to have withdrawn from the group when he moved to Leeds in 1767, Franklin was to remain a common link among many of the early members.

In more recent times writers such as Dion Fortune, John Michell, Nicholas Mann and Geoffrey Ashe have formed theories based on perceived connections between Glastonbury and Celtic legends of the otherworld and Annwn in attempts to link the location firmly with Avalon, drawing on the various legends based on Glastonbury Tor as well as drawing on ideas like Earth mysteries, Ley lines and even the myth of Atlantis.

It is difficult to tell whether Michell ’ s careful citing of Newton ’ s position on this may have reflected a lack of conviction on Michell ’ s part over whether Newton was correct, or whether it was just academic thoroughness.

The apparatus Cavendish used for weighing the Earth was a modification of the torsion balance built by Englishman and geologist John Michell, who died before he could begin the experiment.

: The most important advance in experiments on gravitation and other delicate measurements was the introduction of the torsion balance by Michell and its use by Cavendish.

The torsion balance, also called torsion pendulum, is a scientific apparatus for measuring very weak forces, usually credited to Charles-Augustin de Coulomb, who invented it in 1777, but independently invented by John Michell sometime before 1783.

Boulton, Darwin and Whitehurst were in turn introduced by Michell to Benjamin Franklin when he travelled to Birmingham in July 1758 " to improve and increase Acquaintance among Persons of Influence ", and Franklin returned in 1760 to conduct experiments with Boulton on electricity and sound.

It was realised as early as 1767 that the stars in a clusters were physically related, when the English naturalist Reverend John Michell calculated that the probability of even just one group of stars like the Pleiades being the result of a chance alignment as seen from Earth was just 1 in 496, 000.

John Michell was the first to suggest that double stars might be physically attached to each other when he argued in 1767 that the probability that a double star was due to a chance alignment was small.

The Reverend John Michell calculated in 1767 that the probability of a chance alignment of so many bright stars was only 1 in 500, 000, and so correctly surmised that the Pleiades and many other clusters of stars must be physically related.
