Subject: [DBY] Windley Manor near Derby
Date: Sun, 1 Apr 2001 11:52:11 -0400


Hello List.
Here I am again, asking for help. Does anyone have access to books about
old manor houses of Derbyshire and/or England? I am trying to find out
anything I can about Windley Manor, near Kedleston Hall and about 5 miles
north-east of the City of Derby. Apparently it is still there, at least on
the ordinance survey map. I can't find any books in Metro Toronto Reference
Library, which doesn't mean they aren't there. Their computerized system
is the most frustrating I have ever encountered.
Also Shipton Hall in Shropshire. I found this one on the Internet, but not
much information on its origins and nothing on the Shipton family,in which
I am interested.

Any help most gratefully received.
