In 1143AD the Monastery was built and the Estate gained its identity for the very first time. However, it only became a private Estate, when King Henry III dissolved the Monastery and gifted it to his brother in Law.
In 1714 the Estate was purchased by Joseph Banks, since which time the Estate has passed from one generation to another. The Wiggins-Davies family are celebrating over 300 years of unbroken ownership.
The Estate is ring fenced and located within the heart of rural Lincolnshire, situated between the historic city of Lincoln and the east coast. This idyllic setting combined with the Estates rich heritage creates its own unique character.
