Ellowes Hallとは 意味・読み方・使い方

Ellowes Hall was a stately home located in Sedgley, Staffordshire (now West Midlands). It was built in 1821 in parkland near Lower Gornal village as the home of wealthy local ironmonger John Fereday and his family. Over the next 100 years or more, successive different wealthy owners lived in the house. It remained in the ownership of the Fereday family until 1850, when it was sold to fellow industrialist William Baldwin until 1865, when it became the residence of Charles Cochrane, Mayor of Dudley. The next resident was Sir Horace St. Paul, who moved there in the early 1870s and lived there until his death in 1891. The next occupant was Bilston county councillor James Gibbons, who lived there until his death in 1919, when it was sold to the Mitchell family. The Mitchell family lived in the house until 1923, when it was sold to Henry Arthur Nock, who owned the house until his death in 1946. After the outbreak of the Second World War in 1939, Ellowes Hall was used as a Home Guard headquarters.
