Wyeston Hall
« on: Friday 18 April 08 22:22 BST (UK) »
I'm trying to find information on a place called Wyeston Hall which was apparently near Bawtry.  It's not on any modern map, and googling just turns up a couple of references.  Anyone heard of it?  Undecided

Hi

Just done a search & come up with:

In 1870-72, John Marius Wilson's Imperial Gazetteer of England and Wales  described Clayworth like this:

CLAYWORTH, a township and a parish in East Retford district, Notts. The township lies on the Chesterfield canal, 4¾ miles E of Ranskill r. station, and 6 NNE of East Retford; includes part of Drakeshole hamlet; and has a post office under Bawtry. Pop., 414. Houses, 105. The parish contains also the township of Wyeston. Acres, 3, 080. Real property, £3, 679. Pop., 538. Houses, 129. The property is much subdivided. Wyeston Hall, a seat of Earl Spencer, is a handsome edifice, amid grounds commanding an extensive view.

Does this help?

Hi again,

Found a picture of a Wiseton Hall, built in 1771, was demolished in 1960 (Throsby, 1790).

Could this possibly be the same place?  It was on
