Sir George Eliott Meyrick Tapps-Gervis-Meyrick, 3rd Baronet (1 September 1827 – 7 March 1896) was a land owner and developer, and served as High Sheriff of Anglesey in 1878.
Sir George was born in Dover whilst his father was member of parliament for New Romney.
He was initially opposed to the building the railway to Bournemouth, as the direct line would intrude through his holdings at Hinton Admiral.
However, he was persuaded to change his mind by Sir Merton Russell Cotes, who acted as a go-between for those at Hinton Admiral and the local tradesmen of Bournemouth, in view of the benefits to the resort from the drastic cut in travelling time to London.
Under the terms of the Christchurch Inclosures Act 1802, certain areas of Bournemouth had been set aside as commons under the trusteeship of the lord of the manor.
