temple newsam AND THE MEYNELLS:     On 11th August 1863, Hugo Francis Meynell Ingram married the Hon.

If you love to read up on the history of old houses then you'll love to hear about all the generations of people that lived at Hoar Cross Hall.  Hoar Cross was part of Needwood Forest, the 11th century lands of Henry de Ferrers.
