Croxall Hall

[2] The third son, known as Robert of Courçon, became a celebrated Cardinal, and was a school colleague and friend of Pope Innocent III.

[2] The depute was solved by giving Croxall Manor to Alice for the duration of her life, after which time it passed back to Richard.

Sir George's daughter and heiress, Mary Curzon, brought the property by marriage to Edward Sackville, 4th Earl of Dorset.

[2] The method of this sale is unclear, with some evidence suggesting Prinsep acquired the Hall as the result of a bet or wager.

By 1920, the Levett-Prinsep family had fallen on hard times; they were forced to sell the Croxall Estate and later moved to Devon.

[2][5] It was damaged by fire in 1868, and then over the following four years the Hall was restored and extended for the Levett-Prinsep family, by the architect Joseph Potter of Lichfield.

It killed the owner's son and daughter-in-law, and destroyed the west wing, including the Library and Long Gallery.

[5] Mary Queen of Scots is supposed to have stayed at the Hall for one night during her time imprisoned in various Derbyshire houses.

[2] Queen Henrietta Maria, wife of King Charles I, stayed at the Hall in one of the bedrooms in the west wing.
