William Craven, 6th Baron Craven

He was the son of Revd John Craven, Vicar of Stanton Lacy, Shropshire (1708–1752), and his wife, Mary Rebecca Hickes (1714–1791), daughter of Rev.

In 1775, he built Benham Park at the site of Benham Valence in Speen, Berkshire where he lived with his wife, Lady Elizabeth Berkeley, until she left him in 1780 to travel in Europe.

After his death on 27 September 1791 at age 53 in Lausanne, Switzerland, she married Alexander, Margrave of Brandenburg-Ansbach.
