A former seat of the Dukes of Rutland, Haddon Hall is a country house in England located on the River Wye close to Bakewell, Derbyshire. Lord Edward Manners and his family reside there. The hall was first constructed in the eleventh century, and it had several expansions between the thirteenth and seventeenth centuries, some of which were Tudor-style. Sir Richard de Vernon married Alice Avenell, daughter of William Avenell II, in the 12th century, giving the Vernon family the Manor of Haddon. Dorothy Vernon, the daughter and heir of Sir George Vernon, wed John Manners, the second son of Thomas Manners, 1st Earl of Rutland, in 1563, four centuries later. The elopement of Dorothy and Manners became a legend in the 19th century. Numerous fictional works, including novels and dramatizations, have been based on the legend. She nevertheless inherited the Hall and in 1641, however, their grandson, John Manners, inherited the Earldom from a distant cousin. In 1703, another John Manners, his son, was appointed 1st Duke of Rutland. Another John Manners, the 9th Duke of Rutland, dedicated his life to rebuilding the hall in the 20th century. The history of the hall begins in the eleventh century. When the survey that led to the Domesday Book was conducted in 1087, William Peverel was the owner of the manor of Haddon. The Avenell family, a tenant of the Peverils, subsequently inherited the hall after it was ceded to the Crown in 1153. After marrying Alice Avenell, daughter of William Avenell, Sir Richard de Vernon acquired the property in 1170. With the exception of the Long Gallery, which was constructed in the 16th century, and the Peveril Tower and a portion of the Chapel of St. Nicholas, which came before them, the Vernons constructed the majority of the hall. #History #Architecture #Castles
