Tupton Hall

Thomas's eldest son and heir was Lemuel Gladwin, whose eventual heiress in the female line married a Mr Lord,[2] whose descendants inherited the estate and made it their residence.

He suspected his own coachman of having been the robber, but his other staff supported his alibi that he had been in the house at the time of the crime.

[4] Shortly before 1893 the family sold the estate and at that time a distant cousin Rev.

[5] In 1929 Derbyshire Education Committee purchased Tupton Hall and its 52-acre park.

In 1938 the house was destroyed in a fire, soon after an ornamental plaster ceiling by Robert Adam was refurbished,[6] and the remains were demolished soon after.
