Henry Reynolds-Moreton, 2nd Earl of Ducie

Henry George Francis Reynolds-Moreton, 2nd Earl of Ducie (8 May 1802 – 2 June 1853), styled the Hon.

Henry Reynolds-Moreton from 1808 to 1837 and the Lord Moreton from 1837 to 1840, was a British Whig politician, agriculturalist and cattle breeder.

[1] Between 1848 and 1853, a new Tortworth Court was built for Ducie, in a Tudor style,[2] to designs by the architect Samuel Sanders Teulon.

[1] He died on 2 June 1853 at his home, Tortworth Court, Whitfield, Gloucestershire aged 51, and was succeeded in the earldom by his eldest son Henry.

[4] The "Ducie cultivator" usually ascribed to him[1] is in fact believed to have been invented by the managers of his ironworks at Uley.
